Well my two faced former country of residence has sounded off on the whole Ukraine thing. Typical. Sorry for the format, the source would not let me copy the link. These people piss me off. The last PM was an ex KGB agent and he played both sides. Now this new PM is doing the same damn thing. What is it with these people?

I've added some in between the lines interpretations for clarity.




The government of Norway hopes to preserve good relations with Russia despite the current crisis in Ukraine, Prime Minister Erna Solberg said in an interview with the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation on Wednesday, March 5. She said Norway would not take any unilateral action with regard to Russia. “Our experience of bilateral relations shows that both Norway and Russia always seek to strengthen cooperation in high altitudes,” she said.

Solberg noted that despite “excellent relations” between the two countries, (Please don't bomb us) Norway would follow the European and NATO policy. “We must take into account the fact that Russia broke a number of rules of international law. The government of Norway may have to make a tough choice in the near future,” she said. (We signed this other treaty so we may have to make a choice to do nothing or very little)
“Over the past years Europe has created effective mechanisms for ensuring security, and tensions in relations with Russia subsided after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Nevertheless, the international community cannot but respond to the current situation,” Solberg said. (Somebody else may do something, but not us, please don't bomb us)
Solberg met with Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev in Sochi a month ago to discuss key issues of relations between the two countries, including trade, economic, investment, energy and cultural cooperation and its future potential. (See we're really nice....no bombs)
Medvedev and Solberg also touched on the joint work in the field of fishing and environmental protection as well as the development of ties between Russian and Norwegian regions. (OK we'll give you all the f*cking salmon you want, just ignore our allies or pretend they are not with us)
Soberg’s trip followed Norwegian Foreign Minister Borge Brende’s working visit to Russia in late January. During his talks with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov they discussed how to enhance political dialogue and boost trade and economic cooperation between their countries, including in the North.(See, the borders are all sorted. NO bomby bomby)
The agenda of the talks also covered such topics as cooperation in key areas, including energy, fishing, environmental protection, nuclear and radiation safety, the strengthening of ties between border-lying regions, Russia’s business and scientific activities in Spitsbergen, and humanitarian issues. (We just love you Russians. Oh its so nice to be neighbors with the Russians)
 
It's a rather left-wing government, isn't it? I have some mates in the SF up at Rena and they are up to their gills with the touchy-feely BULLSHIT policy coming down from Oslo.
 
Norway politically is so far left that right is left. The right wing is in. They'll screw up and give the left another decade. Pretty certain there.

Last time they screwed around they were taken in 3 weeks and occupied for 5 years. They think they can hide, but like Poland, they are just in the way.
 
1936 the Olympics in Berlin / 1939 Hitlers Germany invades Poland war in Europe lasts just under 6 years.

2014 the Winter Olympics in Sochi Russia Putin invades the Crimea region of Ukraine possible war to last?

If Russia did not have nuclear weapons do you think things would be different like it was before Desert Storm?
 
Well, I follow Norway too since half of the family migrated here. I do remember the PM of the Labour Party admitted to having met a member of the KGB, then known as a Soviet diplomat. Stoltenberg (the PM) was given a code name as all contacts are with the Soviets, spy or not, and the story goes from then that he is KGB. The PM then said he would avoid any meetings with the diplomat.

This is often distorted tactic used by the opposition parties (and Norway has plenty of them, which is why they seem so divided on policy) to discredit. Stoltenberg eventually won back the PM position but later lost it after serving several years. The Labour party there and here are always regarded as Left wing and some elements certainly are. The RIght Wing here has the Nazi party and United Klans of America, and especially the Tea party to deal with.

Norway did issue a strong argument against Putin and said, like Germany and others in the NATO alliance, that they would take no unilateral action.(http://www.regjeringen.no/en/dep/ud/press/news/2014/crimea.html?id=752064)

Neither will the US take unilateral action. We would be stupid to do so, unless it was to send troops to Poland, Romania or Hungary, assuming they would allow them on their soil, which is highly doubtful. They will take some missile emplacements, which I am sure the DOD is unwrapping plans to do..

Norway sent troops to Iraq and Afghanistan and has been a solid member of the EU and NATO. It does not mean they will back out, nor does it mean they will stand with any military action against Russia, although I think they will go along with what the rest of Europe says to do. They did have Quisling in WWII to deal with and finally put him in front of a firing squad. His memory is still fresh in their mind.

I am not sure what everyone seems to feel is needed right now that will prevent a nuclear war, or even a limited conventional one. Even some of the hard core presidents we have had like Reagan and the unlikely Bush, will not stand up to a Russian invasion of Ukraine. In fact, Russia invading Ukraine is a really dumb idea. It would be the equivalent of Hitler taking Czechslovakia or even Austria in 1939.

If something happens, I am more than ready to go if they will take me. But Putin knows this is a short term gain and a long term loss. He could very well cause another revolution in this own country. Two newspaper columnists, both well known in Russian news, resigned recently when they were asked to present Putin's side of the story only.

It will be an interesting story when we have only two brigades of troops here to go anywhere. So all the blustering will go nowhere when we do not have the readiness. Why is that? Look at what financing two wars without any means to pay for it does to even a rich country like ours.

I lived there for 12 years. Arbeidpartiet might as well be communist as they absorbed the Red party. Comrade Saklov or whatever Stoltenbergs name was, got caught stirring up anti-american sentiment and possibly throwing rocks at the US embassy....his friends got caught, He didn't as he was from a diplomatic family and thus that little KGB tie was snipped. He's a commie through and through.

The new coalition...well. Meet the new boss....same as the old boss. They won't do anything. Arbeidpartiet will be back in 5 years telling everyone where to send their kids to school, and trying to ban every private institution they can lay their hands on.

Norway is sorry they are in any treaty. Xenophobes they are. They wish they were neutral like Sweden....but no chance. Also they don;t want to be "Like" Sweden. That would be terrible for a Norwegian.

As for the war. Yes they do supply Kriegsmarine, but you would not know it in Norway. Whole country is in complete denial. Last government tried to hide people even getting injured. Hell, I told my shrink over there that they were at war and she was shocked, didn't believe me. Hows that for a collective disconnect.

Jaevle drittsek Arbeidpartiet!!!
 
I knew they were cloning Paris Hilton! Yeah, we're f*cked. Barrco Barner haha. We just call him Barry O.
