Irish.


This is coolbert:

American military men acting badly?

Apology made. If you apologize and freely admit you made a honest mistake all should be forgiven.

From the Russian media outlet Russian Times [RT].

"US officials have apologized to the Irish government after more than 50 military personnel broke Irish Covid-19 rules by spending a night at a Limerick hotel without supplying negative tests or filling in contact-tracing forms"

"Negative coronavirus tests and fully completed passenger locator forms are mandated under strict Irish government rules to prevent the spread of coronavirus. Failing to fill out the locator form carries a six-month prison term and a fine of €2,500 ($3,000). Failing to provide a valid Covid-19 test also carries a €2,500 fine."

Trans-Atlantic flights of military personnel and war munitions what is involved here. 

Ireland not a DECLARED neutral nation but rather ADOPTING a position of neutrality in international affairs.

The Irish rather touchy and sensitive with regard to these chartered flights. In most instances NOT military warplanes but merely the movement of military personnel and munitions through Irish airspace and territory creating an interest and even worry..

See thanks to the Irish Times some articles indicative of Irish concerns in this area:
