Russian drone attack an attempt to 'divide' EU - McEntee

Minister for Foreign Affairs Helen McEntee described Russia's alleged involvement in a drone attack on a German airport as an attempt to 'divide' EU views on the war in Ukraine. The attack, which occurred on August 4, 2026, is being investigated, and Germany has accused the Kremlin of orchestrating it. This issue is expected to be discussed at an EU foreign ministers meeting in Ireland, alongside topics such as Ukraine's economic needs, sanctions against Israel, and the US-Iran standoff. Eleven EU members have called for a simple majority decision-making process to prevent single countries from blocking policies. The meeting also includes guest speakers from non-EU nations, highlighting strengthened international cooperation.
