Trond Giske fears that governmental emergency plans may destroy the free competition in the shipbuilding industry. 
Trond Giske frykter at statlige krisepakker skal ødelegge for den frie konkurransen i verftsindustrien.
- I fear a trend in which some large EU countries are pushing for regulations to support their own businesses. 
- Jeg er redd for en utvikling der noen store EU-land tøyer regelverket for å støtte egne bedrifter.
This could weaken the overall competitiveness of the industry in Europe, Giske said. 
Dette vil kunne svekke den samlede konkurranseevnen til næringen i Europa, sier Giske.

Trygve Lie Symposium om fundamentale friheter
This is the theme for the fourth Trygve Lie Symposium which takes place on the same day as the opening of the 66th UN General Assembly in New York. 
Dette er tema for det fjerde Trygve Lie-symposiet som arrangeres i forbindelse med åpningen av FNs hovedforsamling i New York.
What role can social media play in order to promote democracy and human rights? 
Hvilken rolle spiller sosiale medier i å fremme demokrati og menneskerettigheter?
Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Støre has brougth together human rights activists with experience from Egypt and Syria, a key representative from Twitter Inc. and a few of his colleagues from Jordan, Indonesia, Sweden and the United States to debate at the International Peace Institute in New York. 
Utenriksminister Jonas Gahr Støre har samlet menneskerettighetsaktivister med erfaring fra blant annet Egypt og Syria, en sentral leder i Twitter og kolleger fra Jordan, Indonesia, Sverige og USA til debatt på International Peace Institute i New York.
The debate is webcast live on Wednesday 21 September, at. 1 PM, New York time via this link. 
Debatten sendes direkte på nett-TV onsdag 21. september, kl.
The democratic upheavals in the Middle East and North Africa showed to the full how social media like Facebook and Twitter, as well as personal and political blogs, are used for social and political mobilization. 
De demokratiske omveltningene i Midtøsten og Nord-Afrika viste til fulle hvordan sosiale medier som Facebook og Twitter, i tillegg til personlige og politiske blogger, brukes til sosial og politisk mobilisering.
While these tools are used to promote democracy and human rights, they are also used by the authorities to control and manipulate the population. 
Mens disse verktøyene brukes for å fremme demokrati og menneskerettighetene, benyttes de også av styresmakter for å kontrollere og manipulere befolkningen.
Irresponsible use can also contribute to undermine the democracy. 
Ansvarsløs bruk kan også bidra til å undergrave demokratiet.

Hopes for democratic change in Tunisia 
Håp for demokratisk utvikling i Tunisia
President Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali left Tunisia on 14 January. 
President Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali forlot Tunisia 14. januar.
“Events have unfolded very quickly in the past few days, and the situation in the country is still tense and unresolved. 
- Utviklingen har gått svært fort de siste dagene og situasjonen i landet er fortsatt spent og uavklart.
“The upheaval in Tunisia underscores that economic and political reforms must go hand in hand, and that fundamental human rights must be respected. 
- Omveltningene i Tunisia understreker at økonomiske og politiske reformer må gå hånd i hånd, og at grunnleggende menneskerettigheter må respekteres.
It is now crucial that everyone joins forces to ensure a peaceful transition to lasting democratic rule in Tunisia,” said the Foreign Minister. 
Det er nå avgjørende at alle krefter bidrar til en fredelig overgang til et varig demokratisk styre i Tunisia, sier utenriksministeren.
“At the same time, the events in Tunisia demonstrate the challenges faced by many authoritarian regimes in that part of the world. 
- Hendelsene i Tunisa viser samtidig utfordringene for mange autoritære regimer i denne delen av verden.
Authoritarian rule and the absence of democratic legitimacy make it more difficult to deal with economic and social challenges,” said Foreign Minister Støre. 
Autoritært styresett og manglende demokratisk legitimitet gjør det mer krevende å håndtere økonomiske og sosiale utfordringer, sier utenriksminister Støre.

Most of the demonstrators are young people protesting against unemployment, difficult living conditions, corruption and violations of human rights. 
De fleste av demonstrantene er unge mennesker som protesterer mot arbeidsledighet, vanskelige levekår, korrupsjon og brudd på menneskeretttighetene.
“The Tunisian authorities must respect the right to freedom of expression and assembly, which the country has committed itself to in the UN Human Rights Council. 
Tunisiske myndigheter må respektere forsamlings- og ytringsfriheten, noe landet også har forpliktet seg til i FNs menneskrettighetsråd.
Norway urges the authorities to release the bloggers and journalists who have been imprisoned. 
Norge oppfordrer videre myndighetene til å slippe fri bloggere og journalister som er blitt fengslet.

They had their opportunity on Saturday. 
Det fikk de anledning til lørdag.
Considerable interest More than 300 people turned up for the three guided tours at 1 p.m., 2 p.m. and 3 p.m. 
Betydelig interesse Vel 300 mennesker møtte fram på tre omvisningene, kl 13.00, 14.00 og 15.00.
This was far more than what one usually expects for this type of event. 
Dette var langt over det man ellers forventer på denne type arrangementer.
Geir Dalholt from the Ministry of Agriculture and Food (head of the controlling group) welcomed the guests and provided information on the organisation of the work and the role of the government in the project. 
Geir Dalholt fra Landbruks- og matdepartementet (leder i styringsgruppen) ønsket velkommen og orienterte om organiseringen av arbeidet og statens rolle i prosjektet.
Per Kyrre, acting environmental adviser with the district governor of Svalbard, then held a short welcome speech. 
Per Kyrre, konst. miljørådgiver hos Sysselmannen på Svalbard, holdt så en kort hilsningstale.
The attendants were then divided into groups and given a thorough briefing on the purpose of the vault and the selection of seeds (by seed vault project manager Grethe Evjen), about the work on choosing the location for the plant (by Statsbygg project manager Magnus Bredeli Tveiten) and about the construction’s technical details (Dag Rindal Brox from Barlinghaug). 
Deretter ble de frammøtte delt i grupper som fikk grundigere orientering om hvelvets funksjon og om utvelgelse av frø (prosjektleder frøhvelvet Grethe Evjen), om arbeidet med lokalisering av anleggsted (prosjektleder Statsbygg Magnus Bredeli Tveiten) og om tekniske detaljer i konstruksjonen (Dag Rindal Brox, Barlinghaug).
Questions, from both adults and children, revealed great interest in the project. 
Spørsmålene, både fra store og små, vitnet om stor interesse for prosjektet.
The last civilians The locals were thus the last ”civilians” to visit the vault. 
De siste sivile Lokalbefolkningen ble dermed også de siste ”sivile” personene til å se seg om i hvelvet.
Immediately following the conclusion of Open Day, the plant was closed to visitors. 
Umiddelbart etter avslutningen av Åpen Dag ble anlegget stengt for besøk.
On 26 Februar 2008 everything will be ready for the opening ceremony.

Today, the North Atlantic Council discussed Syria’s shooting down of a Turkish plane on 22 June. 
Natos råd har i dag tatt opp Syrias nedskyting av et tyrkisk fly 22. juni.
Norway’s Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Støre commented, “Norway supports NATO’s condemnation of the shooting down of the Turkish plane.

In a joint statement after the meeting, NATO condemned the incident and emphasised the Alliance’s solidarity with Turkey. 
I fellesuttalelsen etter møtet fordømte Nato nedskytingen og understreket alliansens solidaritet med Tyrkia.
NATO sees this as yet another example of the Syrian authorities’ lack of respect for international norms, peace and security and human life. 
Nato ser dette som nok et eksempel på syriske myndigheters manglende respekt for internasjonale normer, fred og sikkerhet og menneskeliv.
NATO will continue to follow the situation closely and will keep up-to-date with developments. 
Nato vil fortsette å følge situasjonen nøye og vil holde seg oppdatert om den videre utviklingen.
“I have expressed Norway’s condemnation of the incident and our solidarity with Turkey directly to my Turkish colleague, Foreign Minister Davutoglu,” said Støre. 
- Jeg har selv formidlet Norges fordømmelse av nedskytingen direkte til min tyrkiske kollega, utenriksminister Davutoglu, og samtidig gitt uttrykk for vår solidaritet med Tyrkia, sier Støre.
