I have no direct Icelandic counterpart: although a member of NATO, Iceland has no standing armed forces nor a Ministry of Defence. Iceland is represented by their Permanent Representative to NATO, Thorsteinn Ingolfsson, at meetings of NATO Defence Ministers, and I met him in this capacity at the last meeting in Brussels on 3/4 June 2013. Ambassador Ingolfsson also represented Iceland at a meeting of the Northern Group Defence Ministers which I also attended at that time.
