Deeply saddened by the passing of His Majesty King Harald V. Having had the honour of serving as Slovenia’s Ambassador to Norway, I will remember him with great respect for his warmth, dignity and devotion to Norway and its people. Takk for alt, Deres Majestet. 🇳🇴 – at Republic of Slovenia

Reflections from the OECD Future of Development Co-operation conference in Paris: Mutual interests are key, locally led development is essential, and ODA remains important but with an evolving role within a broader financing mix. Important questions for all of us moving forward.
