Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg's speech at Labour Youth League (AUF) commemoration at Thorbjørnkaia near Utøya, 22 July 2013.
Statsminister Jens Stoltenbergs tale ved AUFs minnemarkering på Thorbjørnkaia.
Remembering 22 July 2011 is still painful.
Det gjør fortsatt vondt å minnes 22. juli 2011.
77 people were killed.
77 mennesker ble drept.
69 of them on Utøya.

It hurts to think of those we have lost.
Det gjør vondt å tenke på dem vi mistet.
It hurts to think of those of you who were injured.
Det gjør vondt å tenke på dere som ble skadet.
They bear the greatest sorrow.
Ingen bærer sorgen tyngre.
At the same time, two years on, I am incredibly proud of the Labour Youth League.
To år etter er jeg samtidig uendelig stolt av dere i AUF.
A couple of weeks ago, I met many of you at your camp.
For et par uker siden møtte jeg mange av dere på leir igjen.
I discovered something that both moved and impressed me.
Der opplevde jeg noe som både rørte og imponerte meg.
The Labour Youth League’s heart beats just as strongly for a just world, for diversity, as it did before.
AUFs hjerte for en rettferdig verden – for mangfoldet - banker like varmt som før.
It is as it always has been.
Slik har AUF alltid vært.
For more than 100 years, it has looked out towards the rest of the world.
I mer enn 100 år har AUF sett mot verden.
But on 22 July 2011, it was the opposite.
22. juli 2011 var det motsatt.

They saw the horrifying face of right-wing terrorism, but they also saw something else – something more important.
De så den høyreekstreme terrorens fryktelige ansikt, men de så også noe annet – og viktigere.
They saw a Labour Youth League that was not shouting for vengeance, but was steadfastly upholding its values.
De så et AUF som ikke ropte på hevn, men som var urokkelig i troen på sine verdier.
Justice, diversity, equality.
Rettferdighet, mangfold, likeverd.
They saw a Labour Youth League that shone like a beacon.
De så et AUF som ble et forbilde.
I am proud of that.
Det er jeg stolt av.
You should be proud of that too.
Det skal dere være stolte av.
Two years on, my message to you is that the path you have staked out is even more important than before.
To år etter er mitt budskap til dere at AUFs vei er enda viktigere enn før.
We must meet prejudice with knowledge.
Vi må møte fordommer med kunnskap.

People from different backgrounds, with different skin colour and different faiths are enriching Norway – in both economic and cultural terms.
Mennesker med ulik bakgrunn, ulik hudfarge og med ulik tro gjør Norge rikere – økonomisk og kulturelt.
This is the diverse Norway that we will stand up for.
Det er dette mangfoldige Norge vi skal stå opp for.
This is how we will honour those who are no longer with us.
Slik skal vi hedre de som ikke er med oss lengre.
They lived different lives, but they shared a single dream.
De levde ulike liv, men delte en drøm.
Our common dream of justice and peace.
Vår felles drøm om rettferdighet og fred.
On this day of remembrance, we thank them for all that they gave us during their lives.
På minnenes dag skal vi takke dem for alt de ga oss mens de levde.
They lives inspire and strengthen us – the Labour Youth League and the Labour Party – in our fight to uphold our fundamental values.
Deres død gir både AUF og Arbeiderpartiet motivasjon og kraft i kampen for våre grunnleggende verdier.
Today, I am asking everyone here in Norway to assume responsibility.
I dag inviterer jeg alle her hjemme til å vise ansvar.
We must distance ourselves from all hate ideologies and all forms of extremism.
Til å ta avstand fra all form for ekstremisme.
We must refrain from spreading xenophobia and mistrust.
Til å avstå fra å spre fremmedfrykt og mistenksomhet.
We are strong enough to do this.
Vi tåler det.
