1 in 10 people globally lived in extreme poverty in 2025. And for the fourth year in a row, progress has stalled. New #NORAD figures show that 817 million people live in extreme poverty. #EndPovertyDay Full report in 🇳🇴 norad.no/contentassets/a9367…

I completely agree, @andrii_sybiha. Good to talk to you today. It’s time for stepping up the pressure on Russia, strengthening support for Ukraine, and work closely together among all who realise that the outcome of this war will define Europe’s security for decades to come.
Following yesterday's counterproductive developments, today was a day of active diplomacy for Ukraine. President @ZelenskyyUa has been holding nonstop talks with leaders of partner countries throughout the day. At my level, I held conversations with my counterparts from the United Kingdom @Ed_Miliband, Germany @AussenMinDE, and Norway @EspenBarthEide. Our partners' support remains unwavering. We discussed not only how to maintain but also how to increase pressure on the Russian war machine. We also agreed on the schedule of our upcoming contacts. Russian terror does not stop for a single hour. Russian bombs, missiles, and drones keep hitting our cities, killing innocent civilians, including children. Almost 100 people have been killed in just one week. This is not the time for weakness. Next week must become a week of European strength, resolve, and increased pressure on Moscow. Together, we can end Putin's celebrations and hit his economy and military-industrial complex with full force. I am grateful to all of our partners who share this cause for the sake of our indivisible security and a sooner peace.

We paid our respects to King Harald V. Ukraine will always be grateful to Norway for all its assistance. This support comes not only from the government, but also from the Royal Family and all the people of Norway. I recall with gratitude our warm meeting with His Majesty and the special attention he paid to Ukraine. He was a monarch who, for over 35 years, embodied Norway – its openness, dignity, and respect for people. Over that time, our bond with Norway has grown especially strong. We are grateful that Norway has stood with Ukraine all these years. Thank you for the decisions that are helping us protect people and stand firm today.

Full support to Germany's reaction to the attempted sabotage in Leipzig. Hybrid attacks against Allies are unacceptable and will be met by powerful response. We will not be deterred from protecting freedom and security in Europe. Our support to UKR is unwavering.

I am deeply shocked by the brutal attack in Berlin that struck people celebrating diversity and love. My thoughts are with the victims, their loved ones, and all affected. Norway stands with Germany in the fight against violence, hatred and intolerance.

This! 💪 La popularidad de Erling Haaland continúa creciendo tras su destacada actuación en el Mundial 2026. El rendimiento del delantero del Manchester City habría motivado a numerosos padres peruanos a elegir el nombre del futbolista noruego para sus hijos recién nacidos.

Russian attacks on Ukraine are again hitting humanitarian actors. A @RedCrossUkraine warehouse was destroyed in Kyiv, and a drone struck a @WFP vehicle in Dnipropetrovsk. This is a deeply worrying trend. Humanitarian actors are protected under international humanitarian law.
I condemn last night’s Russian attack on Ukraine, which yet again struck civilian sites, killing and injuring many. Russia's attacks on civilians are deeply concerning. Our thoughts are with the victims and all those affected. Norway remains steadfast in its support for Ukraine.

We are deeply disturbed that Kyiv Pechersk Lavra – a UNESCO World Heritage site and a symbol of Ukraine’s history and identity – has been damaged in last night’s attacks. Cultural heritage belongs to all humanity and must be protected. Norway stands with Ukraine.
By striking the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, one of the greatest holy sites of Christianity, Putin has forever put his name on the list of history’s worst barbarians. He should be damned for centuries. And he will lose this war. From the Horde in the 13th century to the Nazis and Bolsheviks in the 20th century, Kyiv’s sacred monasteries have suffered numerous barbarically attacks. Now we are dealing with Russian terrorists who have already outmatched ISIS in their crimes against cultural heritage. Only Russian scum who have nothing sacred can deliberately damage the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, a unique UNESCO heritage site under special protection. We will be urgently initiating all relevant procedures within UNESCO and all other international mechanisms, demanding immediate and adequate responses to this state barbarism. We expect strong reactions by international institutions and capitals. No vague words, silence, or weak steps. We need action now to stop Russian barbarism.

With Russia continuing its aggression against Ukraine, I wanted to share a treasure from the recent #NATO trip to Kyiv. We were treated to a beautiful youth choir performance in the St Sophia Cathedral. If ever we need reminding what Ukraine 🇺🇦 is defending.

Good to be back at the Riga StratCom Conference. In an era of information warfare, AI-generated manipulation, cyber threats, and geopolitical instability, understanding how democracies build resilience against disinformation is essential. #RigaStratComDialogue

Another night, another Russian attempt to break Ukraine’s resolve with indiscriminate killing and destruction. Russia will not succeed. Norway condemns Russia’s attacks. They are yet another proof that Kremlin does not seek peace. Our deepest condolences to all those affected.

Ukraine has our full support. Russia does not succeed in its attempts to intimitade us. Norway & partners will continue to #StandWithUkraine We urge #Russia to stop the killings and destruction, and to end its illegal war.
We have intelligence data indicating that Russia is preparing for a new massive attack. It is important that all our partners know what is happening and that Russia continues to rely on missiles and further war, not diplomatic steps. First of all, this means that additional sanctions pressure on Russia is needed and that the implementation of our air defense arrangements with partners cannot be delayed. I discussed the relevant tasks with Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andrii Sybiha – what must be done in the coming weeks and which steps by partners can most effectively support our defense. Anti-ballistic defense is the key task. We are also preparing our detailed proposals for a new European sanctions package and additional measures against the circumvention of existing sanctions. I thank everyone who is helping protect life!

I’m alarmed by the news of a drone falling on a populated area in Romania during reckless Russian attacks on Ukraine. Norway stands in full solidarity with #Romania and condemns #Russia’s dangerous and escalatory actions. We support enhanced protection of NATO’s Eastern flank.

When drones and missiles strike residential areas in Ukraine, Red Cross volunteers are among the first on the scene to get people to safety. Norway support the efforts to meet the urgent humanitarian needs : regjeringen.no
