  "account": "People Before Profit organized a video projection on Dublin's Convention Centre to voice their dissent against the host of the European Political Community summit at the venue. The footage highlighted EU leaders' complicity in the Gaza war and Germany's significant role as the second-largest arms supplier to the United States. The projection also suggested that workers could effectively halt the war machine. Approximately 50 heads of state or government are expected to attend the summit, marking the largest gathering of world leaders on Irish soil. Richard Boyd Barrett, a TD for People Before Profit, explained that the aim was to draw attention to the fact that while ordinary people struggle for better wages, EU leaders were discussing plans to double the country's arms expenditure and increase militarization. Gardaí intervened to stop the projection due to concerns about the vehicle's parking location. An anti-war protest is also scheduled for Thursday evening in Dublin's city center to coincide with the summit, coinciding with the National Gallery where EU leaders and other attendees will be dining. Meanwhile, separate organizers claim they are not involved in a planned fuel protest in Dublin on Friday, despite being advertised as part of the EU summit-related events.",
