The human rights situation is appalling.

Norway consistently raises the issue in United Nations, OSCE and bilaterally w/ 🇧🇾’ authorities.

I am grateful to the Norwegian government, led by Prime Minister @JonasGahrStore, for its decision to increase support for Ukraine by $600 million this year.

Oppsal-TIL? Det hadde vært noe.

FM Espen Barth Eide:
I am deeply alarmed by the recent surge in settler violence against Palestinians in the West Bank.
