The geopolitical unrest in the world has pushed EU membership back onto the agenda across the Nordic countries, and debate is picking up again in several of them. This event asks where Norway, Greenland, the Faroe Islands and Iceland are heading in relation to the Union.
Each Nordic country has its own relationship with the EU. Denmark, Finland and Sweden are members, while Norway and Iceland remain outside but take part in the single market through the EEA agreement. Greenland left the EU after a referendum in 1985, and the Faroe Islands are not members either. Security concerns linked to the war in Europe and an unstable global order have also led the countries to rethink their defence and security positions.
Thorsten Borring Olesen and Tina Mensel take the stage to discuss what the Nordic region may be looking at in its relations with the EU.
