Faroes want improved EU trade relations
This article is more than 10 years old.
Despite facing EU sanctions for violating fishing quotas, the Faroe Islands say they would like to become a part of the union’s single market for goods and services. The Faroes are a part of the Kingdom of Denmark, but not a member of the EU, meaning the self-governing territories do not gain the same favourable access to markets in EU states as Denmark does. By renegotiating its relationship to Brussels, the self-governing territory hopes it can be granted the same terms as EU members. – Politiken
