Premierul Islandei reacționează după respingerea aderării la UE: „Votul este o victorie pentru democrație”
Iceland's Prime Minister Kristrún Frostadóttir views the rejection of EU accession negotiations by voters as a democratic victory, despite her pro-EU stance. She confirmed that the government will not resume talks during her term, which ends in 2028. The recent referendum saw a turnout of 82.5%, with 52.8% voting against reopening negotiations. Iceland applied for EU membership in 2009, but talks were suspended in 2013 due to a eurosceptic government. The current geopolitical context, including the Ukraine war and Russian activities, has influenced public opinion towards Europe.
