"I believe that a sovereign nation does not need to be part of a large trade block in order to sign trade agreements. Iceland, for instance, has now suspended its application for EU membership which in our view is a wise decision. In the context of trade, if Iceland were to join the EU it would then be obliged to abandon the independent trade agreement it has already with China. This is the reason we abstained on this directive."@en1
