Iceland EU referendum on a knife edge as counting continues

Iceland's referendum on resuming EU membership talks is extremely close, with 50.1% voting against and 49.9% in favor based on initial results. Prime Minister Kristrún Frostadóttir's government moved the referendum forward due to international tensions, although the debate primarily focused on the fishing industry. Fishing rights remain a significant obstacle, as this sector accounts for nearly 40% of Iceland's exports.
