  1. I’m from Ireland and IMO I think we should remain neutral. If a referendum was held tomorrow I would vote against joining NATO. Ever since WW2 our policy of neutrality and military non-alignment has overall helped protect our country. We’ve lived through bad situations like this (or worse ones) and we still didn’t abandon neutrality. We could’ve abandoned it during WW2, we could’ve abandoned it during the Cold War when tensions rose between East and West, we could’ve joined after 9/11 so why change now? It’s like the old saying: if it’s not broke don’t fix it. 😊🇮🇪 Edit: Also like Professor Ker-Lindsay said near the end of the video, we prefer to see ourselves as an anti-war nation rather than a war-mongering nation. For example: if Ireland join NATO 20 years ago we would’ve/could’ve become directly involved in the illegal invasion of Iraq in 2003 and we would’ve had blood on our hands and become just like the type of people (invaders) we hate. I rest my case. 🙌
