They will also discuss international issues such as the Middle-East, Afghanistan and Pakistan, Sri Lanka and North-Korea, climate change, the international economic and financial crisis and European issues, as Sweden takes over the presidency of the European Union in July.
The five ministers are: Per Stig Møller of Denmark, Alexander Stubb of Finland, Jonas Gahr Støre of Norway, Carl Bildt of Sweden and Ossur Skarphedinsson of Iceland.

DO THEY MEET IN REYKJAVÍK BECAUSE IT IS CHEAPER? I BET THEY CAN GET REAL GOOD DEALS FOR THE HOTEL AND BLUE LAGOON, WITH THE ISK FOR THE FLOORS…
@Gus. Yawn.
Sri Lanka?
North Korea?
Pakistan?
OMG! Have we opened Icesaves over there as well? Or have North Koreans apply their anti-terror laws to freeze Icelandic accounts in their Pyongyang branches? And I wonder why penguins problems are not included into agenda?
beware of Carl Bildt, his wife always had the power, not him! Sweden must kick her away from the country if it really desire better times.
I bet Iceland joining the EU takes up more talking time than North Korea!
