Abstract
- The article examines the bid of Iceland to become a member of the European Union (EU). It discusses the requirements of the EU for membership and the reasons why the country delayed its application. It focuses on the international relations policy of Iceland and its bilateral connection to the U.S. that ended in 2006 when the Americans closed its military base. It explores the influence of the Social Democratic Party and the economic recession on the decision to apply for EU membership.
