Iceland voters reject EU accession talks amid US pressure over Greenland

In a referendum triggered by US President Trump's threats to annex Greenland, Icelanders voted against reopening EU membership talks, reaffirming their independent stance. The narrow margin reflects domestic divisions over sovereignty versus economic security, while the context of US expansionist rhetoric adds geopolitical tension in the Arctic. The outcome signals continued Icelandic resistance to EU integration, potentially affecting regional alignments.
