Veteran politician Micheal Martin is set to return as Ireland's prime minister as lawmakers approve his leadership of a coalition government this Wednesday.
Despite Fianna Fáil winning the most seats in recent elections, it lacked a majority, prompting weeks of negotiation with Fine Gael and independents to form a coalition.
The coalition faces significant challenges, including a severe housing crisis and escalating immigration issues, which have become pivotal topics in a nation historically marked by emigration.
