Min v\u00e4n  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theconservative.online\/david-oddsson-in-memoriam\">Dav\u00edd Oddsson<\/a>, Islands statsminister 1991\u20132004, h\u00f6ll ett g\u00e4stf\u00f6redrag om de fyra presidenter han hade tr\u00e4ffat. F\u00f6rst, i egenskap av borgm\u00e4stare i Reykjav\u00edk 1986, tog han emot Reagan vid ett toppm\u00f6te med Michail Gorbatjov, generalsekreterare i Sovjetunionens kommunistiska parti. Deras samtal inledde processen som ledde till slutet p\u00e5 det kalla kriget. D\u00e4refter, i sin roll som l\u00e5ngvarig ledare f\u00f6r ett NATO-land, tr\u00e4ffade han George H. W. Bush, Bill Clinton och George W.

Jag kom ih\u00e5g att den amerikanske utrikesministern William H. Seward \u00e5r 1867,  <a href=\"https:\/\/skemman.is\/bitstream\/1946\/23162\/1\/Loka%C3%BAtg%C3%A1fa_STJ_hannes.pdf\">beaktat<\/a>  att k\u00f6pa Gr\u00f6nland och Island fr\u00e5n Danmark, precis som han nyligen hade k\u00f6pt Alaska fr\u00e5n Ryssland. Jag lade till n\u00e5gra anekdoter, till exempel att Walt Disneys Sn\u00f6vit var isl\u00e4ndsk: hennes designer vid Disney Studios, den isl\u00e4ndsk-kanadensiske  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ctvnews.ca\/winnipeg\/article\/from-the-prairies-to-hollywood-winnipegs-connection-to-the-original-snow-white-film\/\">Charles Thorson<\/a>, h\u00e4mtade sin inspiration fr\u00e5n en isl\u00e4ndsk flicka som han \u00e4lskade, Krist\u00edn S\u00f6lvad\u00f3ttir, som senare blev hemmafru p\u00e5 Island. En annan amerikansk ikon, timmerstugan, har sitt ursprung i Sverige. Som kompletterande l\u00e4sning rekommenderade jag den livfulla  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/History-American-People-Paul-Johnson\/dp\/0060930349\/\"><em>Det amerikanska folkets historia<\/em><\/a>  av den brittiske universalgeniet Paul Johnson och den f\u00e4ngslande romanen  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Atlas-Shrugged-Centennial-AYN-RAND\/dp\/B0027M0HV6\/\"><em>Atlas skakade p\u00e5 axlarna<\/em><\/a>  av den rysk-amerikanska filosofen Ayn Rand, d\u00e4r varje bok \u00e4r \u00f6ver tusen sidor l\u00e5ng.<\/p><div class='related_content'><span>RELATED<\/span><ul><li><a href='https:\/\/www.theconservative.online\/sv\/frihetsmotet-i-kopenhamn'>Frihetsm\u00f6tet i K\u00f6penhamn<\/li><\/a><li><a href='https:\/\/www.theconservative.online\/sv\/val-makrill-och-ronald-coase'>Val, makrill och Ronald Coase<\/li><\/a><li><a href='https:\/\/www.theconservative.online\/sv\/kung-harald-av-norge-ma-han-vila-i-frid'>Kung Harald av Norge, m\u00e5 han vila i frid.<\/li><\/a><\/ul><\/div>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">USA f\u00f6rsvarar Island<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Naturligtvis \u00e4gnade jag en stor del av kursen \u00e5t f\u00f6rh\u00e5llandet mellan Island och USA. Britterna hade ockuperat Island i maj 1940, inte minst f\u00f6r att f\u00f6rhindra att landet ockuperades av Nazityskland. Men efter Frankrikes fall k\u00e4mpade de ensamma mot Hitler och beh\u00f6vde desperat sina styrkor p\u00e5 andra h\u00e5ll. USA:s president Roosevelt ville hj\u00e4lpa till, men var tvungen att agera f\u00f6rsiktigt. Ett idealiskt f\u00f6rsta steg var att f\u00f6rsvara Island genom ett avtal med den isl\u00e4ndska regeringen. Detta skedde sommaren 1941, d\u00e5 den amerikanska milit\u00e4ren ersatte den brittiska. Hitler var rasande, men hans generaler r\u00e5dde honom att en ockupation av Island skulle bli alltf\u00f6r kostsam. USA gick dock inte in i kriget f\u00f6rr\u00e4n i december 1941, efter det japanska angreppet p\u00e5 Pearl Harbor. Efter kriget ville USA ha en milit\u00e4rbas p\u00e5 Island, men gick med p\u00e5 Islands beg\u00e4ran att l\u00e4mna landet 1946. N\u00e4r det kalla kriget b\u00f6rjade,  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Ally-who-Came-Cold\/dp\/9979542454\">Island blev en av grundarna<\/a> av Nordatlantiska f\u00f6rdragsorganisationen, Nato. N\u00e4r det kalla kriget tilltog ingick landet 1951 ett nytt f\u00f6rsvarsavtal: USA \u00e5tog sig \u00e5terigen att f\u00f6rsvara Island och att uppr\u00e4tth\u00e5lla en milit\u00e4rbas i landet.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nya utmaningar i Nordatlanten<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Den amerikanska milit\u00e4rbasen p\u00e5 Island var  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jstor.org\/stable\/45083091?seq=1\">viktigt under det kalla kriget<\/a>. Redan 1920 betonade Lenin Islands strategiska betydelse i flygplanens och ub\u00e5tarnas tids\u00e5lder. Senare citerade Winston Churchill en tysk geopolitisk expert som sa att den som kontrollerade Island h\u00f6ll en pistol riktad mot Storbritannien, Kanada och USA. Churchill kallade ocks\u00e5 Island f\u00f6r \u201dett os\u00e4nkbart hangarfartyg\u201d. Men i och med det kalla krigets slut avtog det amerikanska intresset f\u00f6r Island, och 2006 st\u00e4ngdes milit\u00e4rbasen. Nu verkar dock sp\u00e4nningarna i Nordatlanten ha \u00f6kat igen, mot bakgrund av utmaningar fr\u00e5n Ryssland och Kina. Det var d\u00e4rf\u00f6r ingen \u00f6verraskning att utrikesminister Marco Rubio  <a href=\"https:\/\/icelandmonitor.mbl.is\/news\/news\/2026\/10\/06\/rubio_iceland_s_strategic_importance_is_growing\/\">bes\u00f6kte Island<\/a>  den 5 oktober 2026, d\u00e4r han betonade de n\u00e4ra banden mellan de tv\u00e5 l\u00e4nderna och f\u00f6reslog ett \u00e4nnu n\u00e4rmare samarbete i framtiden. Till och med den vanligtvis antiamerikanska utrikesministern Thorgerdur Katr\u00edn Gunnarsd\u00f3ttir v\u00e4lkomnade den karismatiska amerikanske politikern och visade honom huset d\u00e4r Reagan och Gorbatjov tr\u00e4ffades (bilden ovan). Hon hade f\u00f6rs\u00f6kt f\u00e5 Island att ansluta sig till Europeiska unionen, men led ett klart nederlag i en folkomr\u00f6stning den 29 augusti 2026.<\/p>\n<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jag h\u00f6ll flera intressanta kurser vid Islands universitet, men min favorit var \u201dAmerikansk politik\u201d.
