"Whilst I will be delighted should Iceland join the ranks of independent nations opting into the EU, today’s resolution contains a glaring contradiction. Paragraph 25 rightly acknowledges Iceland’s success in operating a responsible and sustainable fishing industry – in stark contrast to the EU’s track record. It goes on to call for constructive negotiations on fisheries in order to reach a satisfactory solution, which could presumably include a CFP opt-out. Paragraph 26, however, encourages Iceland to start adopting EU-style mechanisms to facilitate its entry into the CFP. To suggest that Iceland should ditch its responsible, sustainable practices in order to adopt the EU’s failed system is ludicrous. The EU should take lessons from Iceland’s successful national control, not impose failure on a proud fishing nation."@en1
