Three years of war. Three years of Russian brutality. Three years of Ukrainian courage.
🇷🇺 must be held accountable for its violations of IL, IHL, IHRL, and our common #OSCE principles. And peace must come on Ukraine's terms.

Historic first NATO-Ukraine Council in Kyiv. We stand by Ukraine - Norway’s support will continue. We are learning from Ukraine’s hard-won lessons - we partner on innovation & industry. We are inspired by Ukraine - TY @getmalyona@ZelenskyyUa@andrii_sybiha@NATO
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.
Today in Brussels, with Commissioner @MartaKosEU, Norway and the EU further strengthened its close cooperation in support for Ukraine.
Norway will provide an additional €40 million to help rebuild a more resilient, modern and distributed energy system 🇺🇦🇳🇴🇪🇺
I condemn Russia’s massive overnight drone and missile attacks on Kyiv. This attack was of a scale and character not seen before, and once again, civilians and civilian infrastructure was struck.
Russia shows no willingness to pursue peace. Our support for Ukraine is rock solid.
With our Nordic-Baltic neighbours, we strongly condemn Russia’s and Belarus’ disinformation campaign and threats against Latvia and other Allies.
Such attempts to divert attention away from Russia’s war against Ukraine and intimidate NATO Allies will fail. https://t.co/lK4QHQoPsy
#IDAHOBIT2026 is a reminder that equality and non‑discrimination are central to democracy.
Across the OSCE region, LGBT+ people still face discrimination and violence.
All States must uphold their human rights commitments.
🇬🇧🇨🇦🇳🇴🇱🇮 🇮🇸 Joint Statement: https://t.co/e8gebPQdM0
It is totally unacceptable that a clearly marked UN vehicle was hit by Russian drones in #Kherson yesterday.
Civilians and humanitarian workers are #NotATarget, and must be protected, not attacked.
Russia’s illegal war against Ukraine must stop.
41 OSCE participating States invoked the #MoscowMechanism for the 6th time in relation to Russia’s war against Ukraine. This time, to investigate Russia’s policy of indoctrination and militarization of Ukrainian children — both in Russia and in the occupied territories of Ukraine

Many thanks to 🇫🇮 for further developing the WPS work in the OSCE by establishing this important platform. You can count on 🇳🇴’s commitment & support!
Women, Peace and Security is at the core of @OSCE’s mandate. Already 30 states from across the OSCE region have joined the #WPS Roadmap, launched by #OSCE25FI, with concrete actions and results. The commitment is strong, the work continues!

As always, a good and productive meeting with Prime Minister of Norway @jonasgahrstore.
We discussed in detail our cooperation in the production and use of drones. Our experience is already being used in the Middle East and the Gulf. We are improving defense against “shahed” drones, and we believe this should also be done in Europe. Today, for this purpose, we initiated a Drone Deal with Norway and signed a Joint Declaration on Enhanced Defense and Security Cooperation. Now our teams will work out the details.
We also focused on our joint production projects and cooperation priorities for this year, and not only in defense. We continue to work together with partners to strengthen our countries.
I personally thank Jonas, Norway, and all Norwegians for their military and energy support for Ukraine, for strengthening our air defense, and for their readiness to continue support for the PURL initiative. We feel your support and are sincerely grateful for it.
Pleased to work with our 🇺🇦 🇪🇺 & 🇳🇴 partners to host a screening tonight of the powerful Oscar-winning film 'Mr NOBODY AGAINST PUTIN'.
The film exposes Russia’s militarisation and indoctrination of children — a serious threat to our shared security that requires accountability.
❗️The OSCE SMM staff members – Vadym Golda, Maxim Petrov, Dmytro Shabanov – have been illegally held in Russian captivity for four years in violation of international law.
We commend and join the @OSCE in calling on Russia to immediately release the detained OSCE officials.
Happy Nordic Day!#NordicDay
We are so grateful for our close cooperation. On 23rd March 1962 we set the framework through the signing of the Helsinki Treaty. 🇫🇮🇩🇰🇮🇸🇸🇪🇳🇴
#OSCE26CH | Glad that a consensus was reached on the 2026 Unified Budget, ending a 5-year stalemate.
In times of tension, this shows that #dialogue and #compromise deliver.
The #OSCE remains a key platform for co-operation and #security. #Switzerland is committed to strengthening its #ability to act.
Nearly 450 participants from across the @OSCE region have gathered in Vienna for the Supplementary Human Dimension Meeting.
Over the next two days, representatives of participating States, international organizations and civil society will discuss how inclusive and transparent lawmaking can strengthen democratic resilience.
For 🇨🇭, democracy is not an abstract preference but part of our political identity. #OSCE26CH
Human rights, democracy, and the rule of law are at the core of the OSCE’s principles and commitments. Norway, with partners, urges Georgia to address democratic backsliding and implement in full the @OSCE#MoscowMechanism recommendations.
Very good visit @osce_odihr together with @OSCE Ambassadors from 🇬🇧 🇳🇴. ODIHR continues to deliver cutting-edge work on security, human rights, democracy and the rule of law based on its strong mandate and autonomy. 🙏 - you have our full support!
This #IWD, 🇳🇴 and 38 other pS reiterated our support for the brave Ukrainian women facing Russia’s war of aggression, and called for action against negative gender norms being proliferated online. #ForAllWomenAndGirls
