flag Iceland to vote on restarting EU membership talks amid rising costs and global tensions.

flag Iceland will hold a referendum in the coming months on restarting EU membership talks, Prime Minister Kristrún Frostadóttir announced during a visit to Poland. flag The move follows renewed interest due to rising living costs, geopolitical tensions—including U.S. President Donald Trump’s threats to annex Greenland—and the war in Ukraine. flag Iceland previously paused negotiations in 2013 but remains closely tied to the EU through the single market, Schengen Area, and European Free Trade Association, while maintaining NATO membership. flag The vote will give citizens a direct say on the country’s future integration with Europe.
