  • Statement by Denmark on Behalf of Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden and Denmark
    Statement by Denmark on behalf of Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden and Denmark 75th Session of the General Assembly of the United Nations Debate in the General Assembly Agenda item 74: Report of the International Court of Justice Delivered by: Counsellor Rasmus Jensen, Denmark New York 2 November 2020 Check against delivery E-mail: [email protected] http://fnnewyork.um.dk 1 M(r/s) Chair, I have the honour to speak on behalf of Finland, , Iceland, Norway, Sweden - and my own country - Denmark. The Nordic countries would like to thank the President of the International Court of Justice for his report on the Court’s work over the past year (A/75/4) and for his presentation today. The big amount of cases indicate the trust and confidence States place in the Court by referring disputes to it for resolution. The Nordic countries would in particular like to note the case filed by The Gambia against Myanmar regarding application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, where the Court indicated provisional measures on January 23rd. In addition to being important for the gravity of the issues The Gambia’s application seeks to address, the case is also an opportunity for the Court to develop its jurisprudence regarding obligations erga omnes and erga omnes partes. All States parties share an interest in compliance with the obligations under the Genocide Convention by all States parties. We applaud the Court and its personnel for continuing to discharge its judicial functions as described by the President in his report, despite the difficult circumstances following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • Comparing the Financial Crises in Iceland and Ireland
    Financial crises in Iceland and Ireland: Does EU and Euro membership matter? This working paper by Prof Baldur Thorhallsson and Prof Peadar Kirby is being published by TASC in Dublin and by the Centre for Small State Studies at the University of Iceland in Reykjavik. Financial Crises in Iceland and Ireland | November 2011 Financial crises in Iceland and Ireland: Does EU and Euro membership matter? Baldur Thorhallsson and Peadar Kirby1 Introduction The collapse of the banking systems in Iceland and Ireland in 2008, the impacts on economy and society of this collapse, and the measures taken by the political authorities in each country to deal with the crises, have all been the subject of extensive commentary (see for example, Krugman (2009, 2010) and O’Brien (2011c)). Yet little attention has been devoted to the role that membership of the European Union (EU) and of the Euro played in the case of Ireland, contrasted with Iceland which is a member of neither. This is the purpose of this report. It begins by situating the study in the political science literature on small states, framing it as testing the claim in this literature that small states prosper better by being members of multilateral organizations that provide them with a shelter, particularly valuable at a time of economic and political crisis. The report then examines the Irish and Icelandic cases under three headings – their respective economic booms before the crises, the trajectory of the crisis in each country, and the role of EU membership and of the Euro in the Irish case compared with its absence in the case of Iceland.

However, Iceland is different to many other supposed overtourism destinations in that its tourism is based on natural areas. Nevertheless, destination discourses can play an important part in influencing tourist decision-making and government and industry policy making. A media analysis was conducted of 507 online media articles on overtourism in Iceland that were published in 2018, with the main themes being identified via content analysis. The results indicated that the media discourse represented only a partial picture of overtourism and the crowding phenomenon in Iceland, with mechanisms to respond to crowding, the satisfaction level of tourists with their Icelandic nature experience, and local people’s support for tourism being underreported. Some of the findings reflect that of other media analyses. However, there are considerable discontinuities between media representations and discourses of overtourism in Iceland, which highlight the importance of national- or destination-level media analysis.

The total amount guaranteed by the government was more than double Ireland’s gross domestic product, but none of the banks were immediately nationalized. The Icelandic banking system also collapsed in 2008, just one week after the Irish government issued its comprehensive guarantee.

  • Azores and Iceland
    13th World Conference on Earthquake Engineering Vancouver, B.C., Canada August 1-6, 2004 Paper No. 2369 A COMPARATIVE STUDY ON STRONG GROUND MOTION IN TWO VOLCANIC ENVIRONMENTS: AZORES AND ICELAND Carlos S. OLIVEIRA1, Ragnar SIGBJÖRNSSON2, Simon ÓLAFSSON3 SUMMARY The objective of this paper is to present the main results of a comparative study of strong ground motion on the Azores and Iceland. These islands are a super-structural part of the Mid Atlantic Ridge, which marks the boundary between the North-American Plate and the Eurasian Plate and creates a north-south oriented belt of seismic and volcanic activity. The tectonic environments are described and compared emphasising the similarities in the geological structure, including surface geology and its effects on strong ground motion. Furthermore, the seismicity of the Azores and Iceland is compared based on earthquake catalogues using statistical analysis. The strong-motion networks on the islands are described along with the strong-motion data used in the subsequent analysis. The strong-motion data are compared using statistical analysis. The main emphasis is put on attenuation of strong-motion data, characterised by root mean square acceleration and peak ground acceleration. The attenuation is also compared to some of the common attenuation relationships, used by the engineering community in Europe and America. The main findings are that there are significant similarities between the tectonic environments of the Azores and Iceland. Furthermore, the similarities found in seismicity are statistically significant. The attenuation is characterised by rapid decay with increasing distance and high acceleration in the near source area. It is found that the same ground motion estimation models can be applied on the Azores and in Iceland.

  • NATO's Enhanced Forward Presence
    North Atlantic Treaty Organization www.nato.int/factsheets Factsheet February 2021 NATO’s Enhanced Forward Presence NATO has enhanced its presence in the eastern part of the Alliance, with four multinational battlegroups in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland. These battlegroups, led by the United Kingdom, Canada, Germany and the United States respectively, are multinational, and combat-ready, demonstrating the strength of the transatlantic bond. Their presence makes clear that an attack on one Ally will be considered an attack on the whole Alliance. NATO’s battlegroups form part of the biggest reinforcement of NATO’s collective defence in a generation. The table below illustrates national contributions to the four battlegroups. The personnel and force numbers are based on information provided by contributing nations and may include forces deployed in a support role. Numbers should be taken as indicative as they change regularly, in accordance with the deployment procedures of the contributing nations.

  • Baron Eduard Von Toll's Last Expedition
    ARCTIC VOL. 34, NO. 3 (SEPTEMBER 19W),P. 201-224 Baron Eduard von Toll’s Last Expedition: The Russian Polar Expedition, 1900-1903 WILLIAM BARR’ ABSTRACT. Zaryu, the expedition vessel of the Russian Polar Expedition of 1900-1903 mounted by the Imperial Academy of Sciences and ledby arctic geologist Baron Eduard von Toll, sailed from St. Petersburg on 21 June 1900. Toll planned to spend a first winter on the little-known east coast of Poluostrov Taymyr, and a second winter on “Zemlya Sannikova”, a landmass which hebelieved lay to the north of the Novosibirskiye Ostrova. Owing to ice conditions, Zuryu spent her first winter on the west coast of Poluostrov Taymyr, where the expedition members made substantial contributions to knowledge ofthe geography, meteorology, geology, biology and magnetology of the area. A search for “Zemlya Sannikova” during the 1901 navigation season proved inconclusive and Zuryu spent the second winter of the expedition at Bukhta Nerpalakh on Ostrov Kotel’nyy. In spring of 1902 Toll withthree companions started north for Ostrov Bennetta by sledge and kayak. Zuryu attempted to reach Ostrov Bennetta to evacuate the Baron’s party but was unable to do so because of severe ice conditions. Two search parties were dispatched in the spring of 1903; one, under M. I. Brusnev, searched the shores of the Novosibirskiye Ostrova; the other, led by A. V. Kolchak, travelled by whaleboat to Ostrov Bennetta. There he found signs that the Baron and his companions had reached the island, and also a note to the effect that they had leftthe island again, by kayak, in November 1902.
