Every missile fired at a Ukrainian city starts on a Russian production line.

On 12 October, the EU sanctioned 826 companies in Russia’s military supply chain and 743 of their CEOs: the largest set of listings the EU has ever agreed.

The largest set of listings the EU has ever approved.

Norway stands in full solidarity with our ally and friend Estonia. We will not be deterred by this Russian campaign.

Such activities just strengthens our resolve to support Ukraine.

[MFA of Ukraine 🇺🇦 @MFA_Ukraine]

Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine has killed over 650 Ukrainian athletes and coaches. Hundreds of Ukrainian athletes will never again take part in international competitions because of Russia.

Russian attacks destroyed more than 800 sports facilities, including over 20 Olympic, Paralympic, and Deaflympic training centres.

The memory of the fallen and the documented crimes committed against Ukraine and its athletes must not be forgotten or silenced.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

I met with Crown Prince Haakon of Norway. The Crown Prince began his first visit to Ukraine by visiting a rehabilitation center in Irpin. I am grateful for this meaningful gesture of attention and support for our people.

During the meeting, we discussed strengthening energy resilience. We appreciate the $450 million contribution of Norway to Ukraine's energy security. We also touched on deepening cultural ties between our nations and investment in the defense sector. There is strong potential in all these areas.

I thank Norway and the Norwegian people for their continued support of Ukraine and their help in protecting lives.

Deeply disturbed by @theIPCinfo report on #Gaza. Using starvation as a method of warfare is prohibited under international law. I call on Israel to lift the blockade & to let the UN & the humanitarian organizations to do their job in line with humanitarian principles.

[Norway MFA @NorwayMFA]

Today marks 80 years since WW2 ended in Europe. We honor our veterans and express our deep gratitude. Peace, freedom & democracy are hard-won. We must resist authoritarian regimes. That’s why Norway continues to support #Ukraine's fight for freedom #VEDay80 #NeverAgainIsNow

[Andreas Motzfeldt Kravik @akravik79]

In Norway’s statement to the @iCJ we argued that Israel has a legal obligation to facilitate humanitarian aid and relief to Palestinians. The humanitarian blockade is morally reprehensible and deeply illegal and must be lifted immediately. Full statement: https://t.co/KuEO04TSmw

Norway regrets Hungary’s decision to withdraw from the International Criminal Court. The @IntlCrimCourt plays a key role in ensuring accountability for international crimes, and Norway will continue to support and defend the Court.

[Norway MFA @NorwayMFA]

Human rights are not optional.

On #HumanRightsDay, Norway stands firm in defending human rights, amid rising conflicts, disinformation and inequality.

We must confront challenges with renewed support and commitment to human rights defenders, international law, and peace.🕊️

[Norway MFA @NorwayMFA]

1 000 days of Russia bombing Ukrainian cities and towns
1 000 days of Russia failing to achieve its strategic goals
1 000 days of #Ukraine's heroic fight for freedom and survival
1 000 days of support for global peace and stability

#Norway 🇳🇴continues to #StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦

[Espen Barth Eide @EspenBarthEide]

UNRWA must survive.

No country is above international law.

Norway is initiating a UN resolution asking the International Court of Justice to clarify Israel's legal obligations to ensure that aid reaches Palestinians. https://t.co/SgN4uRXAEe

@FerdOwner stemmer det at dere vil kaste Boulangerie M ut av nabolaget vårt? Hvor skal vi nå ha barseltreff, kompismøter og hjemmekontor utenfor hjemmet? Bakeriet har fungert som lim for felleskapet i en vanskelig tid. Lokale #gründere & #småbedrifter trenger hjelp!
