{{Politics of Ireland}}
The '''foreign relations of [[Republic of Ireland|Ireland]]''' are substantially influenced by its membership of the [[European Union]], although bilateral relations with the United States and United Kingdom are also important. It is one of the group of smaller nations in the EU and has traditionally followed a [[Irish neutrality|non-aligned foreign policy]]. Ireland has historically tended towards independence in foreign military policy, thus it is not a member of the [[NATO|North Atlantic Treaty Organisation]] and has a [[The Emergency (Ireland)#Neutrality|longstanding]] <!-- constitutional? --> policy of military neutrality.

==Main relationships==
Ireland was not invited to join the United Nations when it was formed in 1945. Both Washington and London were opposed because of Ireland's neutrality during the war. Ireland applied in 1946 and the US and UK voted approval, but the Soviet Union vetoed it. Ireland was finally admitted to the UN in 1955.<ref>Ronan Fanning, "The Anglo-American Alliance and the Irish Application for Membership of the United Nations." ''Irish Studies in International Affairs'' 2#2 (1986), pp. 35–61.

In 1974 it began the Irish Aid programme to provide assistance to developing countries. In 1991 it established the Irish Institute of International and European Affairs to conduct research and analysis on international and European affairs. In 1992 the [[Irish Refugee Council]] began as a humanitarian advocate for the rights of refugees and asylum seekers in Ireland.<ref>John Doyle, "100 years of Irish Foreign Policy."

{{Main|Ireland–United Kingdom relations}}

Since at least the 12th century Ireland, as a result of military conquest, has had political connections with the United Kingdom and its predecessor states, with the whole island becoming a part of the [[United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland]] from 1801 to 1922. From the time Ireland became independent from the United Kingdom in 1922, the two countries have been involved in a dispute over the status of [[Northern Ireland]]. [[Articles 2 and 3 of the Constitution of Ireland]] formerly claimed Northern Ireland as a part of the ''"national territory"'', though in practice the Irish government did recognise the UK's jurisdiction over the region.<br />
From the onset of [[the Troubles]] in 1969, the two governments sought to bring the violence to an end. The [[Sunningdale Agreement]] of 1973 and the [[Anglo-Irish Agreement]] of 1985 were important steps in this process. In 1998, both [[sovereign state|states]] signed the [[Good Friday Agreement]] and now co-operate closely to find a solution to the region's problems. [[Articles 2 and 3 of the Constitution of Ireland]] were amended as part of this agreement, the territorial claim being replaced with a statement of aspiration to unite the people of the island of Ireland. As part of the Good Friday Agreement, the states also ended their [[names of the Irish state|dispute over their respective names]]: ''Ireland'' and the ''United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland''. Each agreed to accept and use the others' correct name.

When [[the Troubles]] were raging in Northern Ireland, the [[Government of Ireland|Irish Government]] sought, with mixed success, to prevent the import of weapons and ammunition through its territory by illegal paramilitary organisations for use in their conflict with the security forces in Northern Ireland. In 1973 three ships of the [[Naval Service (Ireland)|Irish Naval Service]] intercepted a ship carrying weapons from [[Libya]] which were probably destined for [[Irish Republican]] paramilitaries.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.anphoblacht.com/contents/13878 |title=The Claudia |newspaper=[[An Phoblacht]] |date=21 July 2005 |access-date=26 January 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160203094037/http://www.anphoblacht.com/contents/13878 |archive-date=3 February 2016 |url-status=dead }}</ref> Law enforcement acts such as these additionally improved relations with the government of the United Kingdom. However, the independent judiciary blocked a number of attempts to extradite suspects between 1970 and 1998 on the basis that their crime might have been 'political' and thus contrary to [[extradition#Common conditions of extradition|international law at the time]].

Ireland is one of the parties to the [[Rockall#Law of the Sea|Rockall continental shelf dispute]] that also involves Denmark, [[Iceland]], and the United Kingdom. Ireland and the United Kingdom have signed a boundary agreement in the Rockall area. However, neither has concluded similar agreements with Iceland or Denmark (on behalf of the [[Faroe Islands]]) and the matter remains under negotiation. Iceland now claims<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.reglugerd.is/interpro/dkm/WebGuard.nsf/key2/196-1985 |title=Dóms- og kirkjumálaráđuneyti : Reglugerđ varđandi afmörkun landgrunnsins til vesturs, í suđur og til austurs |publisher=Reglugerd.is |access-date=24 October 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110606103624/http://www.reglugerd.is/interpro/dkm/WebGuard.nsf/key2/196-1985 |archive-date=6 June 2011 |url-status=dead }}</ref> a substantial area of the [[continental shelf]] to the west of Ireland, to a point 49°48'N 19°00'W, which is further south than Ireland.

The controversial [[Sellafield]] [[nuclear fuel reprocessing plant]] in north-western England has also been a contentious issue between the two governments. The Irish government has sought the closure of the plant, taking a case against the UK government under the [[United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea]]. However, the [[European Court of Justice]] found that the case should have been dealt with under EU law.<ref>[http://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/expert/infopress_page/064-4617-023-01-04-911-20060123IPR04616-23-01-2006-2006-false/default_en.htm Irish Government must pursue Sellafield case via EU] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160101035401/http://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/expert/infopress_page/064-4617-023-01-04-911-20060123IPR04616-23-01-2006-2006-false/default_en.htm |date=1 January 2016 }}&nbsp;— [[European Parliament]] press release, 8 June 2006.</ref> In 2006, however, both countries came to a friendly agreement which enabled both the [[Radiological Protection Institute of Ireland]] and the [[Garda Síochána]] (Irish Police Force) access to the site to conduct investigations.<ref>{{cite news | url=https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2006/may/30/energy.nuclearindustry | title=Irish Sellafield appeal ruled illegal | newspaper=The Guardian | date=30 May 2006 | access-date=27 October 2013 | archive-date=29 October 2013 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131029215031/http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2006/may/30/energy.nuclearindustry | url-status=live }}</ref>

The use of [[Shannon Airport]] as a stop-over point for [[Military of the United States|US forces]] en route to [[Iraq]] has caused domestic controversy in Ireland. Opponents of this policy brought an unsuccessful [[High Court (Ireland)|High Court]] case against the government in 2003, arguing that this use of Irish airspace violated [[Irish neutrality]].<ref>[http://www.bailii.org/ie/cases/IEHC/2003/64.html Horgan v.

In 1995 a decision was made by the U.S. government to appoint a [[United States Special Envoy for Northern Ireland|Special Envoy]] to Northern Ireland to help with the [[Northern Ireland peace process]]. During the [[2008 United States presidential election|2008 presidential campaign in the United States]], however, Democratic Party candidate [[Barack Obama]] was reported as having questioned the necessity to keep a US Special Envoy for Northern Ireland. His remarks caused an uproar within the Republican Party, with Senator [[John McCain]] questioning his leadership abilities and his commitment to the ongoing peace process in Northern Ireland.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://republican-news.org/current/news/2008/09/obama_seeks_to_recover_from_ir.html | title=Obama seeks to recover from Irish blunder | publisher=Republican News | date=5 September 2008 | access-date=28 October 2013 | archive-date=5 December 2022 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221205202834/https://republican-news.org/current/news/2008/09/obama_seeks_to_recover_from_ir.html | url-status=live }}</ref>

Ireland has raised its concerns in the area of human rights with China on several occasions. On 12 May 2007, during a visit to Beijing, former [[Taoiseach]] [[Brian Cowen]] (then Minister for Finance) discussed human rights issues with Chinese Foreign Minister [[Li Zhaoxing]].<ref name="Wednesday 2007">[[Oireachtas]]: WRITTEN answer on Wednesday, 31 January 2007.

Concerning the [[Political status of Taiwan|Taiwan issue]], Ireland follows a [[One-China policy]] and emphasizes the Taiwan issue being best settled through dialogue "between the parties concerned". Ireland does not maintain official diplomatic ties with Taiwan although there is a Taipei Representative Office that has a representative function about economic and cultural promotion.

In July 2019, the UN ambassadors from 22 nations, including Ireland, signed a joint letter to the [[United Nations Human Rights Council|UNHRC]] condemning China's [[Persecution of Uyghurs in China|mistreatment of the Uyghurs]] as well as its mistreatment of other minority groups, urging the Chinese government to close the [[Xinjiang internment camps]].<ref>{{cite news |title=Which Countries Are For or Against China's Xinjiang Policies? |url=https://thediplomat.com/2019/07/which-countries-are-for-or-against-chinas-xinjiang-policies/ |work=[[The Diplomat (magazine)|The Diplomat]] |date=15 July 2019 |access-date=5 August 2019 |archive-date=16 July 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190716160658/https://thediplomat.com/2019/07/which-countries-are-for-or-against-chinas-xinjiang-policies/ |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=More than 20 ambassadors condemn China's treatment of Uighurs in Xinjiang |url=https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/jul/11/more-than-20-ambassadors-condemn-chinas-treatment-of-uighurs-in-xinjiang |work=The Guardian |date=11 July 2019 |access-date=5 August 2019 |archive-date=13 December 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191213195555/https://amp.theguardian.com/world/2019/jul/11/more-than-20-ambassadors-condemn-chinas-treatment-of-uighurs-in-xinjiang |url-status=live }}</ref>

Under [[Muammar Gaddafi]], the prime governor of Libya from 1969 to 2011, relations between both countries were strained due to Gaddafi's support of the [[Irish Republican Army]]. Gaddafi was sympathetic to their cause and also wanted revenge for the [[United States Air Force]]'s [[1986 United States bombing of Libya|bombing attacks on Tripoli and Benghazi in 1986]]. Between 1984 and 1987 Libya sent the IRA about 1,000 [[AK47|AK47 assault rifles]] and six tonnes of [[Semtex|Semtex explosive]] alongside other weapons. This shipment ensured [[The Troubles]] could continue for many more years, mainly until the [[Good Friday Agreement]] of 1998 ended the conflict.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/northernireland/8425593/Libyan-arms-helped-the-IRA-to-wage-war.html | title=Libyan arms helped the IRA to wage war | publisher=Telegraph UK | date=4 April 2011 | access-date=5 February 2016 | archive-date=24 January 2019 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190124235413/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/northernireland/8425593/Libyan-arms-helped-the-IRA-to-wage-war.html | url-status=live }}</ref>

===Europe===
Ireland is consistently the most [[pro-European]] of EU member states, with 88% of the population approving of EU membership according to a poll in 2022.[https://www.rte.ie/news/ireland/2022/0509/1296895-ireland-eu/] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220520114305/https://www.rte.ie/news/ireland/2022/0509/1296895-ireland-eu/ |date=20 May 2022}} Ireland was a founding member of the [[euro]] single currency. In May 2004, Ireland was one of only three countries to open its borders to workers from the 10 new member states. EU issues important to Ireland include the [[Common Agricultural Policy]], corporation [[tax harmonisation]] and the [[EU Constitution]]. The Irish electorate [[Twenty-eighth Amendment of the Constitution Bill, 2008 (Ireland)|declined to ratify]] the [[Treaty of Lisbon]] in 2008. A second referendum in October 2009 passed the bill, allowing the treaty to be ratified. Before it was ratified Ireland required legal guarantees on issues such as the right of Ireland to remain militarily neutral (and not engage in any kind of "European army"), the right of the state to maintain its low levels of corporation tax and that the treaty would not change the [[Eighth Amendment of the Constitution of Ireland]] making [[abortion]] illegal ([[Thirty-sixth Amendment of the Constitution of Ireland|since deleted]]). Ireland has held the [[Presidency of the Council of the European Union]] on seven occasions (in 1975, 1979, 1984, 1990, 1996, 2004 and 2013), and is due to hold it for the eight time from July to December 2026.

==Ireland and the Commonwealth of Nations==

Ireland was a member state of the British Commonwealth from 1922 until 1949, initially as a [[Dominion]] called the [[Irish Free State]] from 1922 until 1937, when Ireland adopted a new constitution and changed the name of the state to "Ireland". Although the King's position was removed from the Constitution in 1936, but included in the [[External Relations Act 1936]] itself, a republic was only formally declared from 18 April 1949 when the [[Republic of Ireland Act 1948]] came into effect. 

Under the rules for membership at the time, a republic could not be a member state of the Commonwealth. Only a Dominion could be a British Commonwealth member state, along with [[King George VI]] as their head of state.

This was changed a week later with the adoption of the [[London Declaration]], then India became the first [[Commonwealth republic]] on 26 January 1950. King George VI became the first [[Head of the Commonwealth]] as a result.

Since 1998, some people in Ireland have advocated joining the [[Commonwealth of Nations]], most notably [[Éamon Ó Cuív]], [[Frank Feighan]], and [[Mary Kenny]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://breakingnews.iol.ie/news/?c=ireland&jp=mhkfauqlkfcw|title=More calls for Govt to rejoin Commonwealth|date=15 May 2007|website=Ireland Online News|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080112213431/http://breakingnews.iol.ie/news/?c=ireland&jp=mhkfauqlkfcw|archive-date=12 January 2008|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.thejournal.ie/readme/should-ireland-rejoin-the-commonwealth-2837823-Jun2016/|title=Is it now time for Ireland to consider rejoining the Commonwealth?|last=Feighan|first=Frank|website=TheJournal.ie|date=21 June 2016|access-date=2019-11-20|archive-date=27 November 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191127230013/https://www.thejournal.ie/readme/should-ireland-rejoin-the-commonwealth-2837823-Jun2016/|url-status=live}}</ref>
