To mark Ireland’s Presidency of the Council of the European Union, we asked people from every Member State to say an Irish phrase that captures who we are, in their own language. Ní neart go cur le chéile. Strength with unity. One phrase. One Europe.

On 1 July, Ireland takes over the Presidency of the Council of the EU for the 8th time. In an uncertain world, our strength is reinforced when we stand together. In Ireland, the seanfhocal or proverb “Ní neart go cur le chéile” reminds us that we have “Strength with unity”.
