      In the long term it might be worth it to reform the EU in a way that will allow Norway, Iceland and Switzerland to join and open up a path for the UK to come back.

        The EU is always changing. The EU of today isn’t the same as the one the UK left, or the EU that was formed by the Maastricht treaty.

        Might not always change in the way some people wish, but the change is constant.

    The articles conflate non-membership with isolationism. We’re part of almost every treaty available to us except EU, and in its place we have various other bridging treaties that the brexiters hope(d) to mimic.

    I’m generally pro international cooperation and pro EU, I’m just not for Norwegian EU membership, as I fail to see which benefits in it that we do not have.

      Democratic influence on the rules you’re bound by, is that really an insignificant benefit?

    It looks like Norwegians are not that interested in international politics.

      Norway is implementing most of EU rules and regulations quicker than most member states. We are a member in almost all but voting rights on said rules and regulations.
