epa04663791 People protest with an Iceland flag (L) and an EU flag (R) on Austurvoellur square, across from the Icelandic parliament Althingi, in Reykjavik, Iceland, 15 March 2015. Around seven thousand people participated in the protests which were against the Icelandic governments decision to end Iceland’s EU accession discussions completely. Iceland applied for membership in 2009 under a left-leaning coalition government that took office in the wake of the country’s financial crisis. Accession talks started a year later.
