Did Fianna Fáil not support the treaties?

They created the battle groups.

One should be able to create a situation where-----

Fianna Fáil wanted to support a European army.

Senator Daly to continue, without interruption.

I presume the German Minister is trying to imply that if Europe decided to go to war one country could not stop it. It is bizarre stuff, I agree with Senator Whelan. Coming from the German Minister I need say no more than that we should be slightly concerned that this has been reported. The fact that a German Minister wants to create a European army and that a veto would not be a part of that is a matter of concern. There should be unanimous agreement if a European army were to be deployed. Obviously, I am against the whole concept of a European army but the fact that this is their new mindset must be of concern to everyone in the House. I call on the Leader to organise a debate on Ireland's traditional position of neutrality and on the comments by the German Foreign Minister.
