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." ^[1]"

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." ^[1]"

What I think should be changed:

Why it should be changed: Referring to the United States as "America" is informal and incorrect. This sentence is referring to the country of the United States, not the continent of America and its wording should clearly reflect that.
