 The country that has the most energy resources in the EU that could benefit their population with mining. Doesn't want want to use mining. 

What a joke. 
 Norway isn't actually in the EU, although does have very close ties and is in the EEA so does have to follow a lot of their rules. But not a fully fledged EU country 
 👍👍👍
