Icelanders are called to the polls this Saturday to decide if Iceland should reopen accession negotiations with the European Union. This referendum comes as an early vote on a question that would normally not be on the agenda so soon.
The small island in the North Atlantic submits to its citizens the decision to restart the negotiation process with the EU, which had previously been suspended.
The referendum was called early due to the expansionist threats of US President Donald Trump, which are said to have accelerated the need for a decision on Iceland's geopolitical position.
Icelandic voters thus decide directly on the future of relations between the country and the European bloc, at a time of international geopolitical uncertainty.
