There is a possibility of 'Water wars' in the future which could put us at risk, but instead, I think we should be more proactive in working in solidarity with the worst affected by many of the world's issues. Again I know that we out of the western world will have done the least damage really, but that has us in a special position where we could be a shining light to many of these deeply misguided nations

Military spend should stop world wide because the killing of people is crazy and we kinda need to stop doing this soon!!!

Ireland should maintain a modest but effective defense capability to ensure national security and contribute to global peacekeeping. At the same time, it should focus on diplomacy and non-military solutions to conflict, balancing peace efforts without escalating the potential for war.

Increase it to make sure all Irish troops are able to properly defend themselves, especially on their current peacekeeping missions in war torn areas. We need our troops to have adequate and up to date training and equipment

 @9YN486Qanswered…2mos2MO

Increase if it means our military are safely and comfortably living with up to date combat and information.

Increase, however the funding should be used specifically for what Ireland needs to defend its shores & to fulfill UN peacekeeping, not power projection.

 @9LNFT33answered…8mos8MO

Increase only in so much as it brings our army and navy forces up to required levels for our existing commitments
