The @Ireland2026EU logo is inspired by the spiral structure of galaxies, with each arm featuring 27 discs, symbolising the 27 EU Member States. The slogan, “Ní neart go cur le chéile”, comes from an Irish seanfhocal or proverb and reflects that we have “Strength with unity”.

Today, Ireland 🇮🇪 reaffirmed our commitment to the full implementation of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons.
The #NPT was born of tension, and in the midst of crisis.
Today’s challenges call us to collectively commit once more to the NPT, to its three pillars and to the promise of a world free of nuclear weapons.
