No change in policy, says Prime Minister Ásgrímsson

Davíð Oddsson, former Prime Minister of Iceland and now former Foreign Minister, left the Icelandic government and the Icelandic parliament formally yesterday. Halldór Ásgrímsson, the current PM, said on that occasion that there would be no change in the policy of the government after Oddsson's resignation. This includes the policy that membership of the EU is not on the agenda.
