lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, at tomorrow’s meeting of the Council, I would urge the European leaders to agree to commence accession negotiations with Iceland. I am hopeful of a positive outcome and that Member States will not allow the Icesave issue to delay the beginning of the process. In July 2009, Iceland presented its application. In February 2010, the Commission responded by giving a favourable opinion. As a result of its EEA membership, Iceland has already completed 22 of the 35 accession chapters of negotiations. The remaining issues and chapters to be concluded relate to agriculture, fish, structural funds, external relations, regional policy and budgetary matters. Should the EU leaders provide the green light tomorrow, I know that the negotiations will be tough. However, I am confident that the other 13 chapters will be dealt with in a positive manner by both sides. I would again urge the European Council tomorrow to give approval to proceed with negotiations."@en1
