Finland over here in the lead. Northern Europe pulling the weight for Southern Europe, ~~except Norway and Iceland.~~

Edit: TIL Norway and Iceland are not EU members.

except Norway and Iceland.

I mean, hardly seems fair to blame them for that. This is an EU initiative thing, and they're not in the EU.

This is like me saying "lots of US states turned out to vote for Harris, but the Canadian provinces and territories have not been pulling their weight at all".

I did not realize that both were not in the EU.

Norway and Iceland are not proper EU members, only EEA members, so they are not allowed to petition.

They can advocate their European neighbours to sign.
