Lenya Rún Taha Karim has been in the spotlight following the recount that took place in the Northwestern constituency which changed the results of the 25 September parliamentary election. Lenya, who would have broken new ground by becoming the youngest member of parliament in the history of Iceland and the first Kurd in the Icelandic parliament, was one of the four candidates who lost their seat after the recount. The Student Paper sat down with Lenya and discussed the events of these last days.
