Voici ce que l'on peut trouver sur le site du Ministère islandais des affaires étrangères (c'est moi qui souligne)

The Global Liquidity Crisis and the Economic Turmoil in Iceland
• As a modern globalised economy and an active participant in EU´s single market, Iceland was among the first to become seriously hit in this unprecedented financial crisis.
• The global financial crisis has hit Icelandic families hard, many have lost their lifesavings and others are at risk of losing their homes. Ordinary Icelanders are now faced with bleak economic prospects even though they were not responsible for the banking crisis: inflation is in the double-digits, external debt is increasing, and unemployment is rising.
• The Icelandic banks with international financial operations (Landsbanki, Glitnir Bank and Kaupthing Bank) operated in full compliance with European banking laws and the strictest of international regulatory standards.
• Like many banks around the world, the Icelandic banks quickly became victims to the global liquidity crisis as market trust evaporated, despite having virtually no direct exposure to US subprime loans.
• The large size of the Icelandic banking sector in comparison to Iceland’s overall economy made the Icelandic banks more vulnerable to the global liquidity crisis.
• As capital markets dried up, Glitnir Bank and Landsbanki, two of Iceland's three largest commercial banks were taken into administration by the Government of Iceland on 7 October.
• The Icelandic economy is particularly hard hit because these three banks, which were taken into administration, constituted the bulk of the financial system of Iceland.
• On 8 October, the UK Government applied the Anti-Terrorism Crime and Security Act of 2001 against the Icelandic bank Landsbanki with the issuing of the “Landsbanki Freezing Order 2008” by the UK Ministry of Finance.
• This is the only time that a NATO member has used Anti-Terrorism legislation against another NATO-ally. This was done without consultations with the Government of Iceland.
• In other countries, Governments and Central Banks have worked with the Icelandic Banks to solve the problems posed by the international financial crisis in a careful and considered manner.
• The decision to use the UK Anti-Terrorism legislation against the Icelandic bank Landsbanki undermined confidence in Iceland’s remaining and strongest bank Kaupthing. The seizure by the UK Financial Services Authority of Kaupthing’s subsidiary, Singer & Friedlander, on 8 October led to the situation whereby the
Icelandic Government was forced to take Kaupthing bank into administration on 9 October.
• The unprecedented application of the Anti-Terrorism legislation has severely disturbed currency transactions between the UK and Iceland. Exporters have experienced serious difficulties in getting paid for their products. Importers are not able to pay for goods. Icelanders abroad, students and families, are facing difficulties and delays in receiving money from Iceland. Innocent Icelandic citizens abroad have also had to endure verbal abuses in media, in shops and on the street.
• The Government of Iceland has never defaulted on its loans. It has declared that Iceland will honour its legal commitments.
• Iceland is working constructively with other countries to address issues that have arisen in connection with the banking crisis. Consultations with authorities in the Nordic countries, Germany, Belgium and Luxembourg have already been successful. Iceland is conducting talks with the UK and the Netherlands, and stands ready for similar talks with other countries, as needed.
• On October 24, the Government of Iceland reached an agreement with a mission from the International Monetary Fund on an economic stabilisation programme that could be supported by a stand-by arrangement with the Fund.
• The fundamentals of the Icelandic economy are strong and will provide a firm basis to overcome the current economic difficulties and needed reforms.
Donc, selon le gouvernement islandais (ma lecture rapide) :
1. Les banques n'étaient pas (directement...) exposées aux subprimes
2. La prise de contrôle de Kaupthing est de la faute des Anglais
3. Les consultations avec la Belgique et le Luxembourg ont été courronnées de succès
4. Le gouvernement islandais a toujours remboursé ses emprunts
5. L'Islande est un pays dont les fondamentaux économiques sont solides.
6. L'Islande doit faire des réformes...
Moralité : l'Islande doit emprunter pour rembourser ses "emprunts" à Kaupthing Lux qui doit dégeler ses comptes. C'est au niveau politique, Belge, Luxembourgeois et Européen, qu'il faut faire pression pour prêter à l'Islande. Mais cela, on commence à la savoir, non ?

L'Islande explique la crise
Ces Islandais sont tout de même culottés. Lorsqu'ils ont mis en cessation de paiement, le 7/10, Glitnir et Landsbanki, et qu'ils ont ainsi provoqué le blocage des comptes en Angleterre entre autres, ils savaient pertinemment (sauf s'ils sont idiots, ce que je ne crois pas une seconde) que celle-ci réagirait, les Anglais étant dans le business, comme chacun sait, aussi brutaux que, par exemple, des Islandais. La réaction anglaise leur a fourni un excellent prétexte pour l'opération Kaupthing, dont ils sortent grands gagnants. Par ailleurs, qu'ils osent affirmer le 24/10 que les discussions avec la Belgique et le Luxembourg ont été couronnées de succès, alors que le 3/11 le brouillard est encore impénétrable, relève de la contrevérité la plus éhontée. Enfin, ils prétendent que l'économie islandaise a de solides fondamentaux : de qui se moque-t-on?

que l'Islande se moque de nous, soit.
que nos gouvernants se moquent de nous, là c'est légèrement moins acceptable, 1 mois sans que ce gouvernement ne veuille apporter de solution.
que faut-il faire pour qu'il le veuille bien? prendre la famille de reynders en otage?
