Recommendations for the next UN Secretary-General 
Anbefalinger for FNs neste generalsekretær
Welcome to the annual meeting on UN issues. 
Velkommen til årlig møte om FN-spørsmål.
The UN has recently been in the public eye – front-page headlines, focus on personalities. 
I den senere tid: Veldig fokus på FN, overskrifter – personfokusering.
Today is an opportunity to pause for thought and consider some of the main issues. 
Idag: Anledning til å stoppe opp, trekke opp noen større linjer.
For the UN is more important than ever. 
For FN er viktigere enn noen gang.
For development, for human rights, for security and for ensuring a better organised world. 
For utvikling, menneskerettigheter, sikkerhet og en bedre organisert verden.
The Government’s policy platform 
Soria Moria
We stood for election in 2005 on a renewed engagement in the UN. 
Vår regjering gikk til valg på fornyet engasjement i FN.
The Government will work for a considerably strengthened UN. 
Regjeringen vil arbeide for et kraftig styrket FN.
As a member state, Norway will actively support the reform process and seek to cooperate with like-minded countries in efforts to achieve a more modern, more effective world organisation.” 
Som medlemsland vil Norge støtte aktivt opp om reformprosessen og søke samarbeid med nærstående land for å arbeide for en moderne og mer effektiv verdensorganisasjon.”
We are following this up in words and action. 
Dette følger vi opp i ord og handling.
At the UN headquarters in New York, Geneva, Paris, Rome, Vienna and Nairobi, we are working for a stronger and more effective world organisation. 
Ved FN-hovedkvarterene i New York, Geneve, Paris, Roma, Wien og Nairobi arbeider vi for en sterkere og mer effektiv verdensorganisasjon.
The goals set out in the policy platform are an underlying theme of the recent white papers on Norwegian interests in foreign policy and on international development policy. 
Målsettingen fra Soria Moria gjennomsyrer også de to stortingsmeldingene om norske interesser i utenrikspolitikken og om utviklingspolitikken, stortingsmelding 13 og 15.
Why did we set these goals? 
Hvorfor satte vi oss disse målsetningene?
Why is the UN so important for us? 
Hvorfor er FN så viktig for oss?
The UN as a meeting place and a global community of shared values 
FN som møteplass og globalt verdifelleskap
There are many answers to these questions, and there has recently been a good deal of criticism of the UN from various quarters. 
Svarene er mange, og i det siste har det vært en del kritikk av FN fra ulikt hold.
Criticism is important, and the Government agrees that some of it is justified. 
Kritikken er viktig og deles på noen områder av regjeringen.
The UN is more than the Secretariat in New York, more than the General Assembly, the Human Rights Council, or the Security Council. 
FN er mer enn sekretariatet i New York, mer enn Generalforsamlingen, Menneskerettighetsrådet eller Sikkerhetsrådet.
And it is more than the Secretary-General. 
Og mer enn generalsekretæren.
The UN is a pact, an agreement, a promise. 
FN er en pakt, en enighet og et løfte.
At a time when Europe was barely emerging from the destruction and savagery of war, when men and women had committed atrocities on a more horrific scale than the world had ever seen, the founders of the UN created a world organisation “not to take us to heaven, but to prevent us from going to hell.” 
Mens blodtåka ennå lå tykt over Europa, og menneskene hadde forbrutt seg mot hverandre i en grusommere omfang en verden noensinne hadde sett, opprettet FNs grunnleggere en verdensorganisasjon for å – sitat - ikke å bringe oss til himmelen, men redde oss fra helvete.
Global meeting place: In three weeks, more than 100 heads of state and government will meet in New York to discuss key international problems, and seek to find common solutions. 
Global møteplass: Om tre uker vil mer enn 100 stats- og regjeringssjefer møtes i New York - i spissen for ledere fra 192 land - for å snakke sammen og søke felles løsninger på internasjonale problemer.
This will be the largest gathering of political leaders for many years. 
Dette er den største samling av politiske ledere på årevis.
President Barack Obama is coming for the first time, as is China’s President Hu Jintao. 
Barack Obama kommer for første gang, det samme gjør Kinas president Hu Jintao.
Lula, Sarkozy, Merkel and Brown are all veterans, together with our own Prime Minister, Jens Stoltenberg. 
Lula, Sarkozy, Merkel og Brown er alle veteraner, sammen med statsminister Jens Stoltenberg.
They are meeting in the world’s only truly global political arena: the UN General Assembly. 
De kommer sammen til verdens eneste virkelig globale politiske arena: FNs generalforsamling.
With the accelerating pace of globalisation, we are interacting and influencing one another more and more, and a common destiny binds us closer together. 
Etterhvert som globaliseringen tiltar og vi samhandler og påvirker hverandre mer og mer, blir også vårt skjebnefelleskap knyttet tettere sammen.
This makes a global meeting place even more important. 
Og med det øker behovet for en global møteplass.
Today, more than at any other time in history, we are facing global challenges that present greater opportunities and greater risks than ever before. 
I dag, mer enn noe annen gang i historien, står vi overfor globale utfordringer som byr på både større muligheter og større farer enn noen gang i menneskenes i historie.
It will do no good to stick our heads in the sand. 
Vi kan ikke stikke hodet i sanden.
Climate change, disarmament, global poverty and international terrorism are issues that affect every single person on the globe. 
Klima, nedrustning, og global fattigdom og internasjonal terrorisme er noe som angår hvert eneste menneske på denne jorden.
Norms and visions: The UN is a global meeting place where we can discuss our visions and ideals and how to bring them to fruition. 
Normer og visjoner: FN er et global møtepunkt der vi diskuterer visjoner og idealer og hvordan vi kan gjøre disse til virkelighet.
We may of course disagree about the nature of these visions and how they are to be realised. 
Naturligvis kan vi være uenige om hva disse visjonene skal bestå i, og hvordan de kan virkeliggjøres.
Debate in the UN does not short-circuit. 
FN er sted der debatten ikke kortsluttes.
The very fact that we discuss differences in our ideals and visions indicates that we attach huge value to the idea of global ideals and visions. 
Nettopp ved å diskutere ulikehetene i våre idealer og visjoner, tillegger vi nettopp det at vi har globale idealer og visjoner enorm verdi.
One of the first major breakthroughs in the UN was the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights: All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. 
Blant de første virkelig store gjennombrudden i FN, var vedtaket av Verdenserklæringen om Menneskerettighetene: ”Alle mennesker er født frie og med samme menneskeverd og menneskerettigheter.
Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration. 
Enhver har krav på alle de rettigheter og friheter som er nevnt i denne erklæring (...)”
This may sound obvious today, but these ideas were nothing less than revolutionary – and in many places they still are. 
Det høres kanskje selvsagt ut i dag, men dette var – og er mange steder fremdeles - revolusjonært tankegods, intet mindre.
It is exhausting and frustrating to deal with countries whose ideas we seriously disagree with. 
Å forholde seg til land man er alvorlig uenig med er krevende, fordi det er både frustrerende og slitsomt.
At times, we may feel we are not getting anywhere at all. 
Og til tider oppleves det resultatløst.
But breaking off contact if you cannot agree is not a sound approach to international relations today. 
Men i internasjonale relasjoner i dag er det ikke noe ansvarlig valg å bryte kontakten med dine meningsmotstandere.
The UN is the place where we all come together to look the unpleasant truths in the eye. 
FN er stedet vi samles for å se den ubehagelige virkeligheten i øynene.
To deal with the world as it is. 
For å takle den verden vi har fått utdelt.
It is in Norway’s interests for the UN to succeed. 
Det er i norsk interesse at FN lykkes.
For a great deal of what the UN stands for – such as an international legal order – is of crucial importance for a country like Norway. 
For mye av det FN står for, som en internasjonal rettsorden, er avgjørende for en stat som Norge.
To take a specific example, the law of the sea is vital for Norway – a coastal nation that is responsible for managing an area of sea and seabed six times as large as its land area. 
Et konkret eksempel: Havretten er avgjørende for kystlandet Norge som har ansvar for seks ganger mer hav og havbunn enn land over havet.
It is through the UN that we can establish the outer limits of our continental shelf. 
Det er FN som godkjenner de norske krav om å fastsette yttergrensene for vår kontinentalsokkel.
It is through the UN that we are entitled to develop a sound management regime for the rich biological and mineral resources off our shores. 
Det er i kraft av FN at vi har rett til forsvarlig å forvalte matfatet og ressursene utenfor kysten vår.
From words to action 
Fra ord til handling
Of course, the UN is more than agreements and disagreements – or heated and visionary discussions. 
FN er naturligvis mer en avtaler, enigheter og uenigheter - eller opphetede og visjonære diskusjoner.
The UN is also – and perhaps most particularly – concrete action in the field. 
FN er også – kanskje særlig - konkret handling i felt.
When I visit other countries, I am often struck by how visible the UN is at country level, far from the TV cameras, with its many funds, programmes and specialised agencies, UNDP, UNICEF, UNHCR, OCHA, WHO, WTO and ILO, which are all part of the extended UN family, a total of more than 60 different bodies. 
Når jeg er i utlandet, slår det meg hvor synlig FN er på landnivå, utenfor TV-kameraenes fokus; de mange særorganisasjonene, alle fondene og programmene i hele FN-familien, som UNDP, UNICEF, UNHCR, OCHA, WHO – og med WTO og ILO som del av den utvidede familien – alt i alt over 60 ulike organer.
When the microphones are turned off, it is people working in these organisations who stay on to help those in greatest need. 
Når mikrofonene slås av, er det medarbeiderne i alle disse organisasjonene som er tilbake for å støtte de mest sårbare.
The UN provides food, water, health workers, vaccines, mosquito nets and many other forms of assistance that save the lives of millions of children. 
FN betyr matvarehjelp, vann, helsepersonell, vaksiner, malarianett og mange andre former for innsats som redder millioner av barn fra å dø hvert år.
The UN supplies tents, fuel, schools and teachers in places where earthquakes and cyclones have wrought devastation. 
FN betyr telt, brensel, skoler og lærere der jordskjelv og sykloner har lagt land øde.
It is doing crucial work for the hundreds of millions who are living in poverty and need. 
Det er helt avgjørende for de hundrevis av millioner som lever i fattigdom og nød.
This is also sound security policy, as these efforts are creating a safer world for us all. 
Men dette er også god sikkerhetspolitikk, for alt dette er tiltak som skaper en tryggere verden for oss alle.
I would also like to mention the Millennium Development Goals. 
Jeg vil her også nevne tusenårsmålene.
Yes, it is true that progress is too slow and that we won’t achieve all the goals we have set ourselves. 
Ja - utviklingen går for sent, og vi vil ikke nå alle målene vi satte oss.
