Green Party

Very strongly agree

Yes

The Irish Green Party has consistently defended the ‘Triple Lock’ (Government, Dáil, and UN mandate) as a core safeguard for Irish neutrality and peacekeeping legitimacy.

Very strongly agree

Yes, the UN mandate is the essential cornerstone that safeguards our traditional military neutrality.

This closely matches Green Party framing: UN authorisation is central to Ireland’s traditional UN peacekeeping role and to maintaining military neutrality via the Triple Lock.

Strongly agree

Yes, removing the Triple Lock is a slippery slope to joining NATO-led wars without a peacekeeping mandate.

Greens have warned that removing the Triple Lock could facilitate participation in EU/NATO-led missions without UN legitimacy; they often link this to protecting neutrality (e.g., debates on ending the Triple Lock and on EU defence integration).

Strongly disagree

No, we cannot allow Russia or China to hold a veto over our sovereign foreign policy.

The Green Party generally prioritises UN legitimacy over bypassing UNSC veto politics; they have not typically accepted the ‘Russia/China veto’ argument as sufficient reason to drop the UN mandate requirement.

Strongly disagree

No, we need the flexibility to act swiftly with EU allies when the UN Security Council is gridlocked.

Greens have been sceptical of arguments for ‘flexibility’ to deploy with EU allies absent a UN mandate, viewing that as a step away from UN peacekeeping and toward EU military integration inconsistent with neutrality.

Very strongly disagree

No

They have opposed proposals to weaken/remove the UN element of the Triple Lock, arguing it would erode neutrality and shift Ireland toward non-UN military alignments.
