Illiberal forces are constantly trying to tarnish Europe by claiming widespread use of censorship and limited freedom of expression.

The truth? Nowhere do people enjoy more freedom of expression.

(BIG exception: Russia and Belarus)

Europe means press freedom and freedom of expression. It means open and inclusive democracy.

Regulation of big social media platforms is not about censorship, it’s about transparency and accountability, equally applied to all market operators irrespective of nationality.

The 🇪🇺EU is not so unpopular after all, at least not among Europeans 😊

In fact, EU membership is backed by 80% of citizens in the member states.

Figures based on variety of recent polls, with EU wide value accounting for each country’s population.

Norway has added additional USD 500 million in funding for purchase of air defense, ammunition and other critical equipment for 🇺🇦 Ukraine through the US/NATO-PURL initiative (Prioritised Ukraine Requirements List). Total Norwegian allocation for Ukraine in 2025: USD 8,45 billion. #StandWithUkraine

Absolutely nothing indicates putin wants peace. Absolutely everything indicates he prefers continued confrontation.

Which is why russia must be decisively deterred, its economy choked, its leaders held accountable.

Land grabs, aggression and war crimes must never pay off.

On this day, 26 November 1942, the S/S Donau left nazi-occupied Oslo with 529 Norwegian Jews on board, headed for Auschwitz. Women, children and elderly were sent directly to the gas chambers upon arrival. A dark day in Norway’s history.

Another cowardly russian attack on innocent civilians in Ternopil, western Ukraine this week: 26 killed and 93 wounded, including 18 children.

putin and his henchmen cannot be trusted. The war criminals must be deterred and held accountable for their misdeeds, not appeased.

Russia attacking humanitarian assistance is indeed outrageous, and shockingly cowardice, but sadly not surprising. Since day one Russia has disregarded obligations under international law. May Putin and his fellow perpetrators be held accountable for their misdeeds

Putin is not only busy delivering death, destruction & nuclear threats abroad, he’s also working hard to undermine rule of law, democracy and civic rights for ordinary citizens at home.

Russia is THE BIGGEST DECLINER on the World Justice Project’s 2025 rule of law index.

Quite an achievement.

Together with the EU, Norway is stepping up efforts to secure Ukraine’s access to energy. A new contribution of USD 150 million for gas purchase was announced during president Zelensky’s visit to Norway today 🇺🇦🇳🇴🇪🇺

Another despicable russian attack on 🇺🇦Ukraine this afternoon, hitting a kindergarten in Kharkiv. What the heck is the matter with putin and his fellow thugs?

The russian war economy must be choked. The responsible for these heinous attacks held accountable.

So, here we go again Russia….now also attacking UN trucks delivering vital aid in Kherson, in complete disregard of civilian lives and obligations under international humanitarian law.

May the perpetrators one day be held accountable for their cowardly misdeeds.

Three years ago, russia declared its annexation of Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson & Zaporizhzhia.

Norway will never accept this blatant violation of international law. Ukraine will never be russia.

We stand in solidarity with all people in the occupied areas facing russian repression.
September 30, 2025 at 8:00 PM
Wrong again. You are witnessing Norway’s contribution to the defense of Ukraine’s freedom & independence as a sovereign democratic state, which Russia has unlawfully attacked for more than 11 years. Ukraine will never be russia #StandWithUkraine

Warm regards to all brave Ukranians on your Independence Day! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

More #Patriot systems funded by 🇳🇴Norway and 🇩🇪Germany are on their way to defend you against russia’s illegal and cowardly aggression. Press release ⬇️

Ukraine will prevail. Slava Ukraini!

Norway will contribute an additional EUR 420 million to the Czech-led initiative to supply Ukraine with artillery ammunition.

Parts of the funds will go thru the European Peace Facility (EPF) 🇪🇺

Allocation is part of Norway’s 2025 support of EUR 7.5 billion to Ukraine 🇺🇦🇳🇴

Today it’s three years since liberation of #Bucha. Executions, rape, murdered children, burnt corpses; all victims of Russian atrocities.

There are few reasons to trust Putin’s «peaceful intentions». And strong reasons to meet him with defense and deterrence, not appeasement.
