How does Iceland contribute to NATO’s security? Our contribution is partly our strategic location, says 🇮🇸 Þórdís Kolbrún Reykfjörð Gylfadóttir🇮🇸 at the #NATOPublicForum. Our NATO membership is a cornerstone of our national security policy, she tells Scowcroft Center’s Matthew Kroenig.

Always happy to see Þórdís Kolbrún Reykfjörð Gylfadóttir🇮🇸, a true friend of Belarusians! On the margins of the NATO summit, I called for Iceland's help in our efforts to release political prisoners in #Belarus. We also must bring the regime's perpetrators to justice as they continue harsh repression.

Last night’s shooting attack on former President Trump was tragic and appalling. Political violence is absolutely unacceptable and must never be normalized. My thoughts are with all those affected and their families.
