Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg's speech at 22 July commemoration in the Government Office Complex in Oslo.
Statsminister Jens Stoltenbergs tale ved 22. juli-minnemarkeringen i Regjeringskvartalet.
Check against delivery.
Sjekkes mot framføring.
22 July is a day to remember.
22. juli er en dag for å minnes og for å markere.
On 22 July two years ago, 77 people were killed.
22. juli for to år siden ble 77 mennesker drept.
Eight of them here in the government office complex.
Åtte av dem her i regjeringskvartalet.
Our thoughts go to those of you who were injured.
Vi tenker på dere som ble skadet.
The terrorist acts of 22 July were an attack on our security.
Voldshandlingene 22. juli rammet tryggheten i Norge.
Terrorism seeks to spread fear by means of violence.
Terrorens mål er å spre frykt ved hjelp av vold.
Our unison response has been simple – and impossible to misunderstand: We will not be terrorised.
Vårt unisone svar var enkelt og ikke til å misforstå:
We will live as we wish in safety and without fear.
Vi vil leve som vi selv ønsker, i trygghet og uten frykt.
This is why we have worked systematically every day since the terrorist attacks to improve our emergency preparedness.
Derfor har vi hver dag siden terroren rammet Norge jobbet systematisk for å øke beredskapen.
We have evaluated our systems, we have learned lessons, and we have taken action.
Vi har evaluert, lært og handlet.
The warning systems that failed on 22 July have been strengthened; the roles and responsibilities that were unclear have been clarified.
Varslings- og ansvarsrutinene som sviktet 22. juli er forsterket.
We now have better intelligence services, more helicopters and more police officers.
Vi har fått bedre etterretning, flere helikoptre og mer politi.
We have more exercises.
Og vi øver mer.
The Government has exercises.
Regjeringen øver.
The police have exercises.
Politiet øver.
As a nation we are more alert.
Som nasjon har vi skjerpet den mentale beredskapen.
All this has enhanced security, but it is not enough.
Alt dette bidrar til økt trygghet, men det er ikke nok.
It is just as important to safeguard the values that were attacked on 22 July 2011.
Like viktig er det å vokte verdiene som ble angrepet 22. juli 2011.
Humanity, diversity, solidarity – the openness and trust that characterise our society.
Humanitet, mangfold, solidaritet – våre åpne og tillitsfulle fellesskap.
For both in Norway and the countries around us we are seeing that: Hate speech is being spread.
Vi ser det i Norge og i landene rundt oss.
Right-wing populist parties are gaining ground in Europe.
I Europa vokser høyrepopulistiske partier.
At the same time, extreme Islamists are issuing threats.
Samtidig fremmer ekstreme islamister sine trusler.
We must stand up against this.
Dette må vi stå opp mot!
No extremists – regardless of political allegiance, regardless of religion – are above the law.
Ingen ekstremisme, uansett farge – uansett religion, har rett til å heve seg over loven.
The answer to violence is even more democracy, even more humanity, but never naivety.”
Svaret på vold er mer åpenhet, mer demokrati – men aldri naivitet.»
And that is still my answer.
Det er fortsatt mitt svar.
Our values are our strongest protection against violence and terror.
Våre verdier er vårt sterkeste vern mot vold og terror.
New helicopters, more police officers and physical barriers are important anti-terrorism measures.
Nye helikoptre, mer politi og fysiske sperringer er viktige tiltak mot terror.
But they can never safeguard us completely.
Men de kan aldri gjøre oss usårbare.
A 100 per cent safe country would have to be closed off and hermetically sealed.
Et 100 prosent sikkert land vil måtte være stengt, sperret og lukket.
This means that everyone has to assume responsibility.
Da må alle ta ansvar.
We must distance ourselves from all hate ideologies and all forms of extremism.
Vi må ta avstand fra alle hatidelogier og all form for ekstremisme.
We must refrain from spreading xenophobia and mistrust.
Vi må avstå fra å spre fremmedfrykt og mistenksomhet.
This is how we shall remember the victims of the attacks on 22 July.
Slik skal vi minnes ofrene for 22. juli-volden.
This is how we shall honour those who died.
Slik skal vi hedre dem som døde.
Commemorative address

Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness, Mr President,
Deres Majestet, Deres Kongelige høyhet, President,
The Norwegian people were put to the ultimate test on 22 July.
Det norske folk ble satt på en ugjenkallelig prøve 22.juli.
The map was torn apart.
Kartet ble sprengt.
The compass shot to pieces.
Kompasset skutt i filler.
Each and every one of us had to find our way through a landscape of shock, fear and devastation.
Hver og en måtte velge sin sti i et landskap av sjokk, frykt og fortvilelse.
It could have gone very badly.
Det kunne endt galt.
We could have got lost.
Vi kunne gått vill.
But the Norwegian people found their way.
Men det norske folk fant fram.
Out of darkness and uncertainty, home to Norway.
Ut av mørket og uvissheten vendte vi hjem til Norge igjen.
Today I want to express my appreciation for this.
Det vil jeg takke for i dag.
We are still a country in mourning.
Vi er fortsatt et land i sorg.
We are burying our dead from Utøya and the government offices.
Nå begraver vi våre døde fra Utøya og regjeringskvartalet.
Parents are sitting by hospital beds.
Foreldre våker ved sykesengene.
Many are weeping.
Mange gråter.
Hearts are bleeding.
Hjerter blør.
We will continue to comfort those who mourn.
Fortsatt skal vi trøste de som sørger.
Take care of those who are struggling.
Gi omsorg til de som sliter.
Honour the dead.
Ære de døde.
But now it is also time to say thank you.
Men i tillegg er det tid for å si takk.
I would like to thank the Storting for its willingness and ability to stand together at a time when the nation needed unity.
Jeg takker Stortinget for evne og vilje til å stå samlet da nasjonen trengte enhet.
Many of them put their own lives at risk.
Mange satte egne liv i fare.
On Sunday 21 August, we will pay tribute to their courage at a national memorial for all those who were directly affected and all those who have helped.
Søndag 21. august vil vi hylle deres mot under en nasjonal minnemarkering for de som er rammet og alle som hjalp til.
I would also like to express my gratitude for kind words and condolences from all over the world.
Jeg vil også takke for omtanke og kondolanser fra en hel verden.
For letters, flowers, messages of support on Facebook and other social media.
For brev, blomster, støtte på Facebook og andre sosiale medier.
We have felt that we are not alone.
Vi har fått føle at vi ikke er alene.
This has given us strength.
Det gir styrke.
But my warmest thanks go to the Norwegian people.
Den varmeste takken går til det norske folk.
Who took responsibility when it was most needed.
Som tok ansvar da det ble krevet.
Who retained their human dignity.
Som beholdt verdigheten.
Who chose democracy.
Som valgte demokratiet.
And the foremost amongst them are the young people.
Og størst blant folket er de unge.
