AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Whaling Watch: Iceland’s last commercial whaling company, Hvalur, says it can survive a renewed push for a permanent ban after the government signalled a bill in February—while the company argues public support remains and quotas are still being filled. Arctic Strategy: EU leaders meeting in Finland’s Rovaniemi agreed to step up a more strategic Arctic role, including better monitoring, investment in transport and digital links, and closer work with partners like Iceland and Norway amid hybrid threats. Settlement Trade Crackdown: Norway is moving toward a law that could bring prison terms up to three years for trading with Israeli West Bank settlements, joining a wider European push that also includes Iceland, as other countries announce similar restrictions. Iceland-U.S. Tensions: Iceland summoned the U.S. ambassador after Donald Trump posted a map depicting the U.S. absorbing Iceland and other territories, calling it an insult to sovereignty. AI Alarm: European and global tech leaders are urging the AI industry to slow down, warning systems may be advancing faster than safety research can keep up. EU Visa Overhaul: The European Commission is considering revisions to Schengen short-stay visa rules and fees, including faster processing for “trusted” business travellers.
