Editor's Notes
- #9 But to Norway NATO is also important and relevant today. Norway borders to Russia as well. Russia also has an interest in Norway due to of course the oil, but also the coastline. Russia only has coastlines that are mostly covered in ice, a problem Norway does not have. Russia is therefore a potential threat to Norway. It is therefore also a good thing to have 27 other member countries in the organization to support Norway if something were to happen.
- #10 Norway has also very recently been given an important position in NATO. The former prime minister here in Norway, Jens Stoltenberg, has been elected as the new secretary general. He will take office 1st October this year. Until then Anders Rasmussen will be the secretary general. Stoltenberg has to now develop a more strategically insight. The secretary general is responsible for the steering the process of consultation and the making of decisions within the organization. And considering the events happening in Europe at the moment, this position is probably the greatest political challenge any Norwegian has had since Trygve Lie became the first secretary general in UN in 1946.
