McGregor: Ireland’s Humanitarian Aid to Afghanistan is a Betrayal of Its Own People

Published 17/03/2025

RASC News Agency: Conor McGregor, a potential contender in Ireland’s upcoming presidential election, has vehemently criticized the Irish government’s decision to provide humanitarian aid to Afghanistan, calling it a betrayal of Irish citizens and a misallocation of national resources. In a scathing statement on his X (formerly Twitter) account, McGregor condemned the government’s allocation of 4 Euro million in humanitarian assistance to Afghanistan, arguing that such aid directly contradicts the pressing needs of the Irish people. Describing the initiative as “preposterous”, he lambasted Irish authorities for prioritizing foreign assistance while domestic institutions, including schools, are struggling due to severe budget constraints. McGregor underscored the economic hardships faced by many Irish citizens, asserting that state funds should be used to address national concerns rather than being channeled abroad.

Directing his remarks at Ireland’s Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, McGregor stated:

“Months have passed since the formation of the new government, yet not a single decisive action has been taken to meet the needs, demands, and expectations of the Irish people. We are swift to comment on global affairs, quick to allocate financial aid to foreign nations, but when it comes to tackling Ireland’s worsening crises, there is absolute inertia. This is completely unacceptable.” He further argued that prioritizing foreign aid while Irish citizens endure economic distress is not only absurd but a fundamental failure of leadership.

McGregor, who has previously hinted at a presidential run, has now officially called on the Irish public to support him in the upcoming election, vowing to “rescue Ireland” from what he describes as governmental neglect and misplaced priorities. Ireland’s 4 million Euro aid package to Afghanistan, announced in observance of International Women’s Day, was intended to support vulnerable Afghanistani women. However, McGregor insists that such funds should have been used to address Ireland’s own social and economic challenges instead.
