iceland has no military, and no real political or economic significance in the world. it has no genuine allies to whom it is worthwhile
Iceland is a founding member of NATO and is located in the backyard of two of the world’s most powerful navies. The Royal Navy spent the entire Cold War thinking about GIUK. Arguably its a free-rider in NATO but the idea anyone could invade it is laughable
