I am deeply shocked by the attack on Prime Minister Robert Fico of Slovakia. I strongly condemn this horrible act of violence. My thoughts are with Fico, his family and the people of Slovakia.

In Oslo with Filippo Grandi - important discussions on how we best develop partnership between Norway and UNHCR

Historic decision in the United Nations General Assembly!

Norway is proud to have co-sponsored a strong resolution strengthening Palestine in the UN & calling on the #UNSC to reconsider the matter of Palestine’s membership.

This is an important milestone towards a two-state solution.

Shocked by attacks on UNRWA 's HQ in East Jerusalem. As host country, Israel has a duty to protect UN personnel & premises at any time.

The  incidents must be investigated, those responsible must be held accountable.

UNRWA is the lifeline for millions of Palestine refugees.

Norway regrets that the Security Council did not agree on admitting #Palestine as a full member of the UN.
