EURO-ATLANTIC

The bilateral action “EURO-ATLANTIC: The European and Atlantic dimensions of Portugal and Iceland's foreign policies”.

The project is financed by EEA Grants Portugal.

Portugal and Iceland are small European and Atlantic states, whose diplomatic histories only made each other’s acquaintance in the second half of the twentieth century, in 1957, when Portugal presented its credentials to Iceland. In addition, while they are both on the edge of Europe, they have followed different paths, with some similarities though, in what concerns their foreign policy, namely as to the European and the Atlantic (EURO-ATLANTIC) dimensions and their participation in regional and international organizations.
