AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Philippines–Iceland Air Links: The Philippines and Iceland have signed an initial air services agreement, setting up traffic rights for at least seven flights a week (about one a day) for passenger and cargo, with direct or connecting routes possible—though no airline or launch date is announced yet. EU Membership Vote: Former Iceland president Guðni Th. Jóhannesson says any EU accession talks must put fisheries control first, and he argues Iceland should walk away early if Brussels won’t concede. Reykjavík Phone-Free Schools: Reykjavík schools start the new term with a citywide ban on students using mobile phones and similar smart devices during school hours, with limited exceptions. Wildlife Management: The Icelandic Institute of Natural History proposes extending the ptarmigan hunting season by 11 days, with hunting still limited to five days a week. Public Health Permit: Reykjavík’s crematorium at Vesturhlíð 6 is operating under scrutiny after a temporary permit expired, while a replacement permit is still pending. NATO Presence: The Royal Navy handed over leadership of Standing NATO Maritime Group One to France in Reykjavik, underscoring continued North Atlantic security focus.
