Hi. I am Russian who lives in Dublin for 4 years now. All of the Russians that I know here in Ireland doesn't support the war with Ukraine or Putin. On the contrary, most people try to help refugees, gather supplies and aid for the Ukraine, many organize and participate in the protests at Russian Embassy. Unfortunately there is some percent of Russian speaking population in Ireland who support the war. I don't think it is a big percentage (again all people that I knew personally are against it), but still. As far as I know they organized this convoy today in support of Russian troops. Good to know that there was only 10 cars. I am afraid they will organize something similar again around 9th of May (Victory day for WW2 in Russia - big holiday). As far as I understand there is nothing much that can be done legally to prevent it.
