Initial results from Iceland’s EU election indicate continued opposition to joining the European Union. With approximately 177,000 votes tallied as of this morning, the "no" side currently holds a 51.8 percent majority. This represents a slight increase for the opposition and a corresponding decrease for the "yes" campaign, which now stands at 48.2 percent. Around 270,000 Icelanders are eligible to vote in the election. While the count is ongoing, these figures suggest Iceland is unlikely to revisit EU membership in the near future. The results were reported by Icelandic national broadcaster RUV. The final outcome will be determined as remaining votes are processed.
