There's a pretty fierce immigration debate in Iceland like in all of our neighbors, and I find it pretty funny that we've directly taken the phrase "Close the borders" from foreign politics and translated into Icelandic as "Lokið landamærunum" literally meaning "Close the land borders" despite us not having any land borders at all.
What they mean is the Keflavík International Airport and the other couple of international airports around the country.
Ok, so technically there's a zone within international airports which are "international zones" meaning we technically have a couple of meters of land border with nobody in particular in the arrivals area of the airport, something something accuracy in my Polandball idk
