As if Iceland really cares about not being invited.
Well, of course we care, it is a snub from the power that purports itself as the protector of the weak and small nations in the international order and thus the supposed champion of freedom, snubbing a staunch ally over the most important issue of that ally, the use of its marine resources, in which we have gained a very valuable experience and knowledge and consider ourself to be a leader in the world despite our smallness. Having a world ocean summit without Iceland is like having a world economic summit without the US.
