Irish PM avoids 'genocide' label for Gaza in Trump meeting, denies shift

Taoiseach declined to use the term 'genocide' for the Gaza situation during a meeting with Trump, stating he did not use 'that term specifically' and denying any change in his language. This marks a notable diplomatic nuance in Ireland's traditionally pro-Palestinian stance, potentially signaling a softer tone in bilateral talks with the US. The incident underscores the sensitivity of Gaza discourse in high-level diplomacy, though it remains unclear if this reflects a policy shift or mere diplomatic tact.
