"A Uachtaráin, is fear mór peile mise agus i gcursaí peile bíonn peileadóirí spórtúla agus peileadóirí neamhspórtúla ann. Cloíonn peileadóirí spórtúla leis na rialacha agus ní chloíonn peileadóirí neamhspórtúla. Croitheann siad do lámh agus tugann siad cic san uillinn duit ag an am ceánna. Seo díreach atá á dheanamh ag an Rúis ar a gcomharsana – tá sí ag déanamh bullaíochta ortha agus ag an am céanna ag ligean uirthi gur cairde iad léi. Dá bhrí sin, tá sé in am dúinn an cárta dearg a thabhairt don Rúis mar atáimid ag déanamh anseo anocht.
It was Shakespeare who said one can smile and smile and be a villain. This is exactly what Mr Putin and his Russian colleagues are doing. Smiling to the cameras, pretending that they are abiding by international law while at the same time behaving in a most villainous way towards their neighbours.
This is not acceptable and I think we have a right and duty to say so here tonight. Breaking the Helsinki principles, as my colleague Mr Brok said, using energy prices as a tool. This is not good enough. When someone is bullied by someone stronger and bigger than themselves, it is very difficult for them to fight back. The only way that they can do so is by getting the support of someone equally big as the bully and we are the partner who can do that for our eastern partners.
I think we have to stand up firmly and strongly to Russia and ensure that this type of behaviour is not acceptable so that these countries can exercise their sovereign right to independence now and forever."@en1
