Daly and Wallace also voted against condemning the Russian invasion, which earned the duo praise from Russian State media., Daly told presenter Denise Calnan that she has “roundly condemned Russia for starting this war” but the Nato and US role in the conflict cannot be ignored.
The Kildare native opposed sanctions on Russia because she said they don't stop the conflict and inflict more pain on the public. And sanctions, in her words,"prolongs the war".Daly said that opposition and the media have spun some of the narrative to make it appear that she is soft on Russia.“Some of our positions have been spun mischievously by some political opponents but also deliberately, I think, by sections of the establishment media," Daly said.
"To spin them into something different, if you like, my opposition to sanctions is somehow ‘oh I’m soft on Russia and I don’t want Russia damaged or anything’, there’s no so such thing." She added: “We’ve been accused of being Putin puppets and all this but nobody has ever been able to produce a single word anywhere that shows me supporting Putin. He’s a right-wing neoliberal nationalist and I have nothing to do with them now or ever.”
