Iceland is a close partner of the EU but not a full member. That could change if Icelanders vote to join the bloc. As ties with the US deteriorate, the government could bring forward a referendum on the issue.
Late reply, but it’s pretty awful. It’s getting somewhat better in Reykjavík, but the infrastructure has been wrecked by the US for their military bases back in the cold war. So everything is pretty much car centric.
Like with other car centric progressive cities, the people and city council are pushing pedestrian and bicycle friendly infrastructure, but are seeing heavy push back from car brained lobbyists.
Good urban planning and public transport are the main things I miss from the Netherlands, but I came for the nature and don’t live near civilization.
