Interesting how both ‘for’ and ‘against’ options grew at expense of undecided.
Biggest thing I’m curious about is how EU membership with interact with Iceland’s protective policies on their territorial waters.
Even Norway reassessing its EU options in the face of Trump.

When is the referendum going to take place place?
Very very cool. I love Iceland 🇮🇸❤️
Solid 😀
Great stuff! Let’s go Iceland 🇮🇸
Excellent!
wait until the russian disinformation campaign starts
As a Brit this both great and upsetting
One day we will be back were we belong
Wait, Iceland is NOT in the EU? 🤔
Let’s hope 🇮🇸 can make it. 🫡 + ♥️ from 🇩🇪.
One of us, one of us.
Welcome Iceland!
I’d be really interested to see how the US react to this to be honest. For some reason I can see this being considered an affront to the incoming administration.
Russia threatens consistently not to join, then eventually take action > ‘Neutral’ countries join.
US ‘threatens’ repeatedly to ‘do something’ that’s Not ruling out military — to claim lands that’s not theirs > said land ponders and favors joining.
EU who’s “in an economical decline” does little to nothing to spur on these decisions within said countries and it just happens. Almost like not being hostile has it’s perks.
Gives me that Steam vibes meme of Gabe doing nothing and “wins” as competition repeatedly shoots itself in the foot.
That would be incredible!
This is kind of bad infographic. There are 2 poll results, but only one question on whether there should be a referendum or not. Should I assume that the first bar is showing people’s willingness to join EU? Confusing
The title is a bit misleading. The poll shows a majority in favour of *holding a referendum* on joining the EU, not a majority in favour of joining the EU.
For all we know there might be a majority for EU membership, but that’s not what the poll asked.
Important context. The referendum planned for 2027 currently is only on restarting accesion talks which were put on hold in 2013. If Iceland were to join the EU it would only be after the negotiations end assuming that’s accepted in the referendum. Then there would be another referendum on wether to actually join the EU or not which would be very very close.
For what I know, the reason why Iceland and Norway wouldn’t join the EU is having to negotiate fishing rights with the UK. Now that the UK left the common market that’s not the case anymore, so I guess it makes sense that Iceland (I don’t know about Norway) is reconsidering its position on joining the union
Why publish a poll asking whether people want a referendum or not? Wouldn’t it be more natural to ask if they would like to join, and if yes the referendum would come naturally.
Though intuitively I would guess anyone being *against* the referendum is also against membership. And most but not all people being for referendum are probably for membership.
One of us!! 💙
Can somebody explain why they are not in the EU already?
I asked chatgpt and the most likely answer from it was about fishery policies. Does anybody can explain what would happen with that?
Icelanders are sick of their tiny broken unreliable currency… they want an alternative
I still want Scotland to join too.
Iceland is not in the EU? I did not have my passport when I went there last, just my ID card…
