move the paragraph saying "Despite strong support for Palestine in Ireland,[4] 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 [5][needs update]" ahead of the one that is currently in front as it would make more sense chronologically.

change some tenses and words in the paragraph to this: "Despite strong support for Palestine in Ireland,[4] the government has yet to implement the 2014 decision to formalise diplomatic relations between the two, although Foreign Minister Simon Coveney had previously indicated this could change. [5]"

add "Although both houses of the Irish parliament passed the motion to recognise the state of Palestine, the Government wishes to do this as part of a wider EU move and as such has rejected legislation. As of 2021, Ireland does not recognise the state of Palestine." "

move the paragraph saying "Despite strong support for Palestine in Ireland,[4] 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 [5][needs update]" ahead of the one that is currently in front as it would make more sense chronologically.

change some tenses and words in the paragraph to this: "Despite strong support for Palestine in Ireland,[4] the government has yet to implement the 2014 decision to formalise diplomatic relations between the two, although Foreign Minister Simon Coveney had previously indicated this could change. [5]"

add "Although both houses of the Irish parliament passed the motion to recognise the state of Palestine, the Government wishes to do this as part of a wider EU move, which has been criticised by Irish TDs. Foreign Minister Simon Coveney opened a Dáil debate urging the EU to step up and use its powers to play a role in the Israeli-Palestine conflict which would include recognition of Palestine. However, as of 2021, Ireland does not recognise the state of Palestine." "
