Norwegian Minister of Defence Ine Eriksen Søreide today visited the NATO exercise Noble Jump and observed Norwegian and allied soldiers who are part of NATO’s new rapid reaction force.
Forsvarsminister Ine Eriksen Søreide besøkte i dag NATOs øvelse Noble Jump og fikk se norske og allierte soldater som inngår i NATOs nye hurtige utrykningsstyrke.
Along with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, Polish Deputy Prime Minister Tomasz Siemoniak and the defence ministers of Poland, Germany and the Netherlands, she and the Norwegian Chief of Defence attended a demonstration by the forces taking part in Noble Jump.
Sammen med blant annet NATOs generalsekretær Jens Stoltenberg, Polens visestatsminister Tomasz Siemoniak, og forsvarsministrene fra Polen, Tyskland og Nederland, overvar forsvarsministeren sammen med forsvarssjefen en demonstrasjon av styrkene som deltar på Noble Jump.
The Norwegian defence minister met both Norwegian and allied soldiers.
Hun møtte både norske og allierte soldater.
At the NATO summit in Wales last September, the members of the alliance agreed on a Readiness Action Plan (RAP) containing a number of measures to improve defence readiness and capability.
På NATOs toppmøte i Wales i september i fjor ble medlemmene enige om en plan, den såkalte Readiness Action Plan (RAP), som inneholder en rekke tiltak for økt beredskap og forsvarsevne.
The alliance also decided to heighten its ambition level for the NATO Response Force (NRF).
Alliansen bestemte også å øke ambisjonene for NATOs hurtige reaksjonsstyrke (NATO Response Force, NRF).
“We agreed to establish a force that can react faster than the current NRF in crisis situations,” says Eriksen Søreide.
- Vi ble enige om å etablere en styrke som kan reagere raskere enn dagens NRF i krisesituasjoner.
“At the sharp end of this force is a new component, called the Very High Readiness Joint Task Force (VJTF).
I spissen av denne styrken inngår en ny styrke som kalles Very High Readiness Joint Task Force (VJTF).
Germany, the Netherlands and Norway are cooperating on the pilot project to establish this high-readiness force.
Tyskland, Nederland og Norge bidrar i pilotprosjektet for å få etablert hurtigreaksjonsstyrken .
Today she got to see how far NATO has come in developing the concept.
I dag fikk hun se hvor langt NATO er kommet med konseptet.
Response to an altered security situation “It is important to show that NATO is adapting to the changed security picture that we face in the north, in the east and in the south.
Respons på et endret sikkerhetspolitisk bilde - Det er viktig å vise at NATO tilpasser seg til det endrede sikkerhetspolitiske bildet vi står overfor, både i nord, øst og sør.
Our actions make clear that we will protect our allies, but they also demonstrate the alliance’s ability and willingness to respond to new security challenges as needed,” says the defence minister, emphasising that NATO should now focus more on collective defence.
Våre tiltak understreker at vi beskytter våre allierte, men viser også alliansens evne og vilje til å svare på nye sikkerhetsutfordringer ved behov, sier forsvarsministeren og understreker viktigheten av at NATO nå legger mer vekt på kollektivt forsvar.
“Creating a ‘spearhead’, as we call it, within the NRF framework shows that we aim to strengthen the alliance’s deterrent capacity as well as NATO’s core task – collective defence,” Eriksen Søreide says.
- Å utvikle en såkalt «spydspiss» innenfor rammen av NRF, viser at vi vil styrke alliansens avskrekkende evne og NATOs kjerneoppgave; kollektivt forsvar.
“We are also increasing our overall readiness and reaction capabilities, and taking important steps to increase NATO’s defensive strength.
Samtidig øker vi vår samlede beredskap og reaksjonsevne, og tar viktige steg for å styrke NATOs forsvarsevne.
In this way we’re developing NATO’s overall security.
På den måten utvikler vi NATOs samlede sikkerhet, sier forsvarsministeren.
At the same time NATO must have what it takes to solve the whole spectrum of major tasks.
- Samtidig må NATO ha det som kreves for å løse hele spekteret av tunge oppgaver.
It’s therefore important to emphasise that we must continue to focus just as much attention on NATO’s depth and endurance.”
Derfor er det viktig å understreke at vi også må ha like stor oppmerksomhet om NATOs dybde og evne til utholdenhet, sier hun.
Eriksen Søreide adds: “Norway wants to be active in helping to strengthen NATO’s defence capability.
- Norge ønsker å være en aktiv bidragsyter til arbeidet med å styrke NATOs forsvarsevne.
Beyond addressing important tasks for the alliance in the north, Norway in the past year has contributed significantly to the alliance’s assurance measures in the Baltic and Poland.
Ut over å ivareta viktige oppgaver for alliansen i nord har Norge det siste året bidratt betydelig til alliansens beroligelsestiltak i Baltikum og Polen.
We will continue with this as long as necessary.”
Det skal vi fortsette med så lenge det er nødvendig, fortsetter Eriksen Søreide.
Active ally During exercise Noble Jump in Poland, a variety of elements are being practiced, such as force manoeuvring, host-country accommodation of allied soldiers, logistics and joint training for the nations taking part in VJTF development.
Aktiv alliert Under øvelse Noble Jump i Polen øves en rekke elementer, som å forflytte styrker, mottak av allierte soldater i vertslandet, logistikk, samt samtrening mellom nasjonene som deltar i VJTF-utviklingen.
Norway is contributing just under 200 Army soldiers.
Norge bidrar med i underkant av 200 soldater fra Hæren.
“It is important for Norway to participate actively in allied exercises,” says Eriksen Søreide.
- Det er viktig at Norge aktivt deltar i alliert øvingsvirksomhet.
“The best way to protect our security is to be prepared – and that’s why it is important to train.
Den beste måten å trygge vår sikkerhet på er å være forberedt – og derfor er det viktig å øve.
It is also important for Norway to show itself outside of Norway’s borders if we simultaneously expect an increase in the allied presence in Norway and surrounding areas.”
Det er også viktig at Norge stiller opp utenfor Norges grenser, hvis vi samtidig skal forvente økt alliert tilstedeværelse i Norge og våre nærområder, sier Eriksen Søreide.
When NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg was in Norway earlier in June, the Government announced that Norway would provide a total of six staff officers for NATO’s new command and control units in the Baltics and a multinational headquarters in Poland.
Da NATOs generalsekretær Jens Stoltenberg var i Norge tidligere i juni, annonserte regjeringen at Norge stiller med til sammen seks stabsoffiserer til NATOs nye kommando og kontrollenheter i Baltikum og et multinasjonalt hovedkvarter i Polen.
The Noble Jump exercise represents the first time these units have practiced their ability to receive and otherwise accommodate allied reinforcement forces in a collective defence framework.
Under øvelse Noble Jump blir det første gang disse enhetene skal øve på sin evne til å ta i mot allierte forsterkningsstyrker i en kollektiv forsvarsramme.
“Secretary General Stoltenberg reiterated today that he is very glad Norway contributes so significantly to NATO,” says Eriksen Søreide.
- Stoltenberg gjentok i dag at han er veldig glad for at Norge bidrar så betydelig til NATO.
Bodes well “We must be able to defend all the allies, and that’s why we train and exercise in this way.
Lover godt for veien videre - Vi skal kunne forsvare alle allierte, og derfor trener og øver vi på denne måten.
This is especially important now that we have seen a change in the threat and security situation.
Dette er spesielt viktig når vi har sett at trusselbildet og sikkerhetssituasjonen har endret seg.
NATO is now undergoing a major restructuring that boosts our readiness and response capability.
NATO er nå inne i en betydelig omstilling som innebærer en økning i beredskapen og reaksjonsevnen vår.
It was informative to see how NATO’s allies operate together,” the Norwegian defence minister says.
Det var lærerikt å se hvordan NATO-allierte opererer sammen, sier forsvarsministeren.
“Moving military forces on short notice is a complicated process that requires precise and proficient planning, continual adaptation and – not least – training.
- Å flytte militære styrker på kort varsel er en komplisert prosess som krever nøyaktig og god planlegging, kontinuerlig tilpasning – og ikke minst øving.
That explains why this exercise is so important.
Derfor er denne øvelsen så viktig.
The soldiers have demonstrated how far they have come, and the exercise has provided valuable lessons for the further development of the VJTF.
Soldatene har demonstrert hvor langt de er kommet, og øvelsen har gitt god læring for videreutvikling av VJTF.
It’s also reassuring to see how the three countries – Germany, the Netherlands and Norway – are collaborating to help shape what will be the task force’s final form.
Det er også tillitvekkende å se hvordan de tre landene – Tyskland, Nederland og Norge – samarbeider og bidrar til å utforme det som skal bli den endelige profilen på styrken.
Noble Jump is part of NATO’s Allied Shield series of exercises taking place in June 2015.
Øvelse Noble Jump er en del av NATOs øvelsesrekke Allied Shield, som pågår i juni 2015.
A total of about 14,000 soldiers from 19 allied countries and three partner countries will participate in Allied Shield.
Totalt vil om lag 14.000 soldater fra 19 allierte land og tre partnerland delta i Allied Shield.
Approximately 2,100 soldiers are taking part in the Noble Jump exercise in Zagan, Poland.
Totalt deltar cirka 2.100 soldater på øvelse Noble Jump i Zagan, Polen.
The Norwegian force contribution consists primarily of a company with battalion leadership based in the Telemark Battalion.
Det norske styrkebidraget består i hovedsak av en kompanistridsgruppe med bataljonsledelse med utgangspunkt i Telemark bataljon.
Noble Jump aims to test and refine the concept for the portion of the NATO Response Force (NRF) with the shortest deployment time: the Very High Readiness Joint Task Force (VJTF).
Noble Jump har som formål å teste og raffinere konseptet for den delen av NATO Response Force (NRF) som skal være klar til innsats på kortest tid; Very High Readiness Joint Task Force (VJTF).
In April 2015 a Noble Jump exercise of alert procedures was performed, with about 1,500 troops involved.
I april 2015 ble det gjennomført en Noble Jump varslingsøvelse der cirka 1.500 soldater deltok.

The decision was made by the Parliament on the basis of a private proposal from MPs.
Avgjørelsene ble tatt av Stortinget på bakgrunn av et representantforslag.
Strictly protected species
Særskilt beskyttet art
The golden eagle is a strictly protected species under the Bern Convention.
Kongeørn er en særskilt beskyttet art etter Bernkonvensjonen.
However, controlled culling may take place if certain conditions are met.
Samtidig kan felling tillates dersom visse vilkår er oppfylt.
Norway is firmly committed to the Bern Convention and will still aim to ensure the special protection of the golden eagles.
Norge er forpliktet etter Bernkonvensjonen og vil fortsatt sikre arten særskilt beskyttelse.
The current population goal of 850-1200 territorial pairs will be maintained.
Gjeldende bestandsmål på 850-1200 hekkende par opprettholdes.
Current research and knowledge about golden eagle years shows that both livestock and semi-domesticated reindeer are exposed to predation by golden eagles.
Forskning og kunnskap om kongeørn de senere år har vist at både husdyr og tamrein er utsatt for angrep av kongeørn.
In the Fosen area a research project has revealed that the golden eagle is one of several factors explaining the loss of sheep.
På Fosen-halvøya har et forskningsprosjekt avdekket at kongeørn er en av flere faktorer som forklarer tapet av sau.
In Troms there is so far no research to confirm the same pattern as in Fosen, but local sheep farmers and Sami people claim that the golden eagle is an important factor explaining the loss of livestock also in this area.
I Troms er det så langt ikke gjennomført forskning som bekrefter det samme mønsteret, men lokale husdyreiere og samiske reindriftsutøvere hevder at kongeørn er en viktig faktor for å forklare tapet av beitedyr også i dette området.
Loss of domestic animals
Færre tap av beitedyr
Furthermore, Parliament has asked the Government to allow a trial cull in the Fosen area and Troms.
Videre har Stortinget bedt regjeringen igangsette en forsøksordning for forvaltning av kongeørn på Fosenhalvøya og i Troms.
The current population is within this range, hence the potential scope for culling is narrow.
Dagens bestand er i overensstemmelse med bestandsmålet, og handlingsrommet for omfanget av skadefelling er følgelig begrenset.
Sustainable management of species
Bærekraftig forvaltning
Given the controversial nature of the matter, it will also be important to ensure a thorough and comprehensive public consultation process where all interested parties are heard.
Kongeørnforvaltning er kontroversielt, og det er viktig å sikre en grundig og inkluderende prosess der alle berørte interesser blir hørt.
As an example, the tourism industry has voiced its clear opposition to the proposal, since Norwegian wildlife is a key asset for Norway as a tourist destination.
Som et eksempel har turistnæringen gitt klart uttrykk for sin motstand til forslaget, ettersom natur og dyreliv er en viktig ressurs for Norge som turistdestinasjon.
The current population goal of 850-1200 territorial pairs, shall continue to apply.
Gjeldende bestandsmål på 850-1200 hekkende par skal fortsatt gjelde.
This is in accordance with Norway´s obligations under the Bern Convention.
Dette er i overensstemmelse med Norges forpliktelser etter Bernkonvensjonen.

‘We have drawn up a strategy aimed at phasing out subsidies on harmful fossil fuels.
-Vi har laget en strategi for å fase ut subsidier på skadelig fossilt brensel.
At the same time, we need to make sure that a reduction in subsidies does not negatively affect the most vulnerable people in developing countries.
Samtidig må vi passe på at reduksjon av subsidier ikke rammer de mest sårbare innbyggerne i utviklingsland.
Norway will promote the implementation of social measures that can help counter any negative consequences a reduction in subsidies may have for the poor,’ said Minister of Foreign Affairs Børge Brende.
Norge vil bidra til sosiale tiltak for å motvirke negative konsekvenser for fattige, sier utenriksminister Børge Brende.
In 2013, approximately NOK 3 400 billions was spent globally on subsidising the use of fossil fuels.
I 2013 ble det brukt rundt 3400 milliarder kroner globalt til å subsidiere bruk av fossilt brensel.
Subsidies on oil, gas and coal tend to have negative impacts on the climate, environment and sustainable development.
Subsidier til olje, gass og kull har som oftest negative konsekvenser for klima, miljø, og bærekraftig utvikling.
In addition, only a small proportion of the poor benefits from the subsidies.
I tillegg er det bare en liten andel av de fattige som har fordel av subsidiene.
Norway participates in a number of international organisations that are working to analyse, map and estimate the scale of fossil fuel subsidies.
Norge deltar i en rekke internasjonale organisasjoner som arbeider med å analysere, kartlegge og anslå omfanget av subsidier til fossilt brensel.
Their analyses show why fossil fuel subsidy reform is good policy.
Deres analyser viser hvorfor reformer av fossile subsidier er god politikk.
Moreover, these organisations offer advice and suggestions as to how reform in this area can be implemented,’ said Minister of Petroleum and Energy Tord Lien.
I tillegg gir disse organisasjonene råd og forslag om hvordan reformer kan gjennomføres, sier olje- og energiminister Tord Lien.

'Russia’s import ban is completely unreasonable.
- Russlands importforbud er helt urimelig.
The fact that Russia is implementing these measures shows how important it is that we stand together with our allies and partners in responding to Russia’s destabilisation of Ukraine.
At Russland gjennomfører slike tiltak viser hvor viktig det er at vi står sammen med allierte og partnere i vår reaksjon på Russlands destabilisering av Ukraina.
