"Iceland is a country that is very European in nature and, unlike Turkey, it is culturally and historically part of Europe. Therefore, nothing should stand in the way of swift accession negotiations with Reykjavik. However, there is no reason for the European Union to give Iceland special treatment. In particular, the EU must not pay Iceland’s debts, nor must the debts of bankrupt Icelandic banks be passed on to individual EU Member States. It is also important that the Icelandic people are not forced into anything. They must be able to decide on their possible accession freely and without propaganda from Brussels. On the basis of these considerations, I abstained from the vote."@en1
