lpv:translated text	"I am very satisfied that the European Parliament has adopted our proposal that Iceland’s membership of the EU should involve the ending of whaling. Specifically, the European Parliament is advising Iceland that whaling does not conform to Union rules, and is asking the country to put an end to the practice. It is also asking Iceland to set aside the country reserves presented to the International Whaling Commission. Otherwise, I give a positive welcome to the recent decision by EU leaders to begin membership negotiations with Iceland, so that it can become the 28th Member State. With today’s vote, we are emphasising that the issue of compensation to the British and Dutch following the collapse of the bank Icesave should be resolved bilaterally. Members have given a favourable welcome to the decision by the European Council on 17 June of this year to begin negotiations on Iceland’s membership of the EU. Parliament is also emphasising the fact that Iceland’s membership would enable the EU to play a more active role in the Arctic, while stressing the country’s ‘strong democratic culture’. Iceland is part of the Schengen Agreement, is a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation, and has had a free trade agreement with the EU since 1973."@en1
