[Icelandic Prime Minister: No more EU accession negotiations during the current term of the government] August 31, Icelandic Prime Minister Frostdottir said on August 30, local time, that the government respects the results of the referendum and will not advance EU accession negotiations during the current government’s term. Iceland held a referendum on the 29th on whether to restart EU accession negotiations. According to news released by Iceland on the 30th, preliminary vote counting data showed that 47.2% of the votes were in favor and 52.8% of the votes were against. The opponent has been determined to win. Frostadottir said at a press conference that day that the government will respect and implement the results of the referendum. Unless major events occur in the next 24 months, the issue of EU accession is unlikely to become the top issue in parliament again in the short term. Frostadottir also said that many voters who voted against recognized that Iceland maintains relations with the EU mainly through the European Economic Area, and the government will continue to strengthen relevant cooperation within the framework of the European Economic Area.
