Higgins Condemns Russia After Row Over Wife's Letter

PRESIDENT Michael D Higgins has issued a statement reiterating his condemnation of Russian’s invasion of Ukraine.

It follows criticism of a letter written by his wife Sabina which was published in the Irish Times.

She said the fighting would go on until the world “persuades President Vladimir Putin of Russia and President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine to agree to a ceasefire and negotiations”.

Critics had suggested Mrs Higgins was drawing an equivalence between the actions of Ukraine and Russia.
