Ireland–Ukraine relations are foreign relations between the Republic of Ireland and Ukraine.

Both countries are full members of the Council of Europe and of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe.

History

Ireland recognized Ukraine on 31 December 1991.[1] Diplomatic relations were established shortly after on 1 April 1992.[2]

Ukraine opened its embassy in Ireland in August 2003.[3] Ireland has an embassy in Kiev since June 2021.

After the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the embassy closed for six months, with staff working remotely; it reopened in August 2022.[4] In November 2024, staff were told to work from home due to escalating tensions.[5]

Between February 2022 and September 2024, Ireland took in almost 110,000 thousand Ukraine refugees through the Beneficiaries of Temporary Protection scheme.[6][7]

Ambassadors

As of 2024, the Ukrainian ambassador to Ireland was Gerasko Larysa,[8] having been appointed to the role in April 2021.[9]
