Mourning the passing of longtime Congressman John Lewis while also reflecting on his powerful life. The civil-rights leader worked tirelessly to advance the cause of justice for all. The world has lost a hero. Rest In Peace.

People fleeing. Bombs falling. Gunmen driving families from their homes. With #Covid19 spreading across Yemen, this is a reckless endangerment of lives. A ceasefire is the lifeline Yemen desperately needs now. nrc.no/perspectives/2…

Happiness! China 🇨🇳 has gone from 15 000 new corona cases a day mid February to 15. Such an astonishing success! When the last temporary hospital in Wuhan closed this week, medics were so excited that they did this.......

We’re facing severe liquidity problems at @UN. The cash situation for the regular budget is extremely alarming. It’s troubling. As a founding member, @NorwayUN urges all Member States to make every effort to pay their dues. #FifthCommitte ➡️ norway.no/en/missions/UN…

I strongly condemn the senseless and horrible attacks on churches and hotels in #SriLanka this Easter morning. My thoughts are with the victims and their families.

Honoured by the decision by the #NATO Allies to extend my term as Secretary General until 30 September 2022. Together we will continue to adapt & modernise our Alliance to keep it fit for the future: bit.ly/2JK1fDD

We strongly condemn the brutal massacre in #Mali, claiming more than 130 lives, incl. those of innocent women and children. Our condolences  go to the families who lost their loved ones. Paramount that those responsible for the attack are brought to justice - FM #EriksenSoreide

Three years ago, terrorism struck in Brussels. Two years ago, in London. One week ago, in Christchurch. Terrorism comes in many forms & may hide behind religion or ideology. But it always attacks our freedom & our values. Let our answer be to stand up against hate – every time.

If we want lasting peace, we need to include women #MoreWomenMorePeace Fortunately, mindsets that prevent women from engaging are not static. Women’s mediators networks work tirelessly to include women. And the Nordic Network are stand-by to contribute #CSW63

40,7 % of all vehicles sold in Norway in February were electric or hydrogen. Up from 21,6 % last year. Such a revolution! Thanks to good government policies. If it can happen In Norway’s it can for sure happen anywhere. ofv.no/bilsalget/bils…

Today is #ZeroDiscriminationDay. #Norway stands with @UNAIDS to take action against discriminatory laws. Everyone has the right to live with dignity regardless of their gender/race/sexualorientation/health/occupation. Take the quiz to lean more. ow.ly/150p50mpkVa
