There are no bilateral relations between Ireland and The Palestinian Authority .Since 2000, Ireland had established a representative office in Ramallah and Palestine has an office in Dublin.

History

By the late 1960s, Ireland was increasingly concerned about the fate of Palestinian refugees who fled the Six Day War in 1967. In 1969, Irish Foreign Minister Frank Aiken described the problem as the "main and most pressing objective" of Ireland’s Middle East policy.

In 1980, Ireland was the first European Union member state to endorse the establishment of a Palestinian state.

Despite strong support for Palestine in Ireland, the government is yet to implement a 2014 decision to formalise diplomatic relations between the two, but Foreign Minister Simon Coveney has indicated this could soon change
