The underlying premise is that foreign policy is developed through interaction between the authorities, other foreign policy actors and experts, such as researchers, and interest organisations. 
En hovedpremiss er at utenrikspolitikken utformes i et samspill mellom myndigheter, andre utenrikspolitiske aktører og eksperter, som for eksempel forskerne, og interesseorganisasjoner.
The new situation I have already described, with much stronger international focus on the Arctic, means that the range of actors is becoming more complex and diverse. 
Den nye situasjonen, som jeg har pekt på, med et mye sterkere internasjonalt fokus på Arktis, innebærer et mer sammensatt og mangeartet aktørbilde.
We need to understand the goals, commitment and priorities of the other actors, and how the dynamics between the actors is likely to develop. 
Vi trenger kunnskap om målsettinger, engasjement og prioriteringer hos andre aktører, og om hvordan samspillet kan bli mellom ulike aktører.
This is why the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will be particularly interested in following the project Geopolitics in the North, for which it has provided NOK 26 million from the Barents 2020 programme. 
Derfor er dette prosjektet – ”Geopolitikk i nord” - som vi støtter med 26 millioner kroner over noen år fra Barents 2020-programmet, noe vi i UD følger med spesielt stor interesse.
Much of the research on High North issues has been carried out in other parts of the country. 
Mye av forskningen om nordområdespørsmål har foregått i andre landsdeler.
Cooperation with the local business community will play an very role. 
Samarbeid med det lokale næringsliv vil være viktig.
Wherever possible, we will encourage the establishment of public-private partnerships, that is to say co-funded projects between public entities and private interests. 
Der det er mulig, vil vi legge føringer om etablering av ”private-public partnerships”, altså spleiselag mellom offentlige etater og institusjoner og private interesser.
I was very pleased that just before the opening of this conference today, we could launch a public-private partnership for the establishment of an endowed chair in maritime logistics. 
Jeg er glad for at vi rett før denne konferansen i dag kunne lansere et offentlig-privat partnerskap for opprettelse av en lærestol, en såkalt ”chair-ordning”, i maritim logistikk.
It is to focus on Kirkenes and cooperation along the axis Bodø/Kirkenes/northwestern Russia. 
Der vil fokus være på Kirkenes og et samarbeid i aksen Bodø/Kirkenes/ Nordvest-Russland.
We are also in the process of establishing a similar scheme in the field of earth observations and satellite remote sensing in association with the Faculty of Sciences at the University of Tromsø. 
Vi er også i ferd med å etablere en tilsvarende ordning i Tromsø på fagfeltet jordobservasjon og fjernmåling fra satellitt, med tilknytning til universitetets matematisk-naturvitenskapelige fakultet.
On 1 December, two years will have passed since the High North Strategy was presented. 
Mandag 1. desember er det altså to år siden nordområdestrategien ble lagt fram.
That is not a long time, and I see it merely as the beginning. 
Det er ingen lang tidsperiode, og jeg ser det bare som begynnelsen.
Most of the measures outlined by the Government will need to be followed up over many years. 
De fleste av de tiltakene som Regjeringen skisserte, vil kreve oppfølging over flere år.
But nearly all of the measures have been initiated, and many of them are well underway. 
Men nesten alt er igangsatt, og med mange tiltak er vi kommet ganske langt.
I note that there is considerable impatience, and that is something we actually need. 
Jeg opplever mye utålmodighet, og det trenger vi faktisk.
But I also feel that there is growing understanding of the fact that these things will take time and that this is a large, long-term undertaking. 
Men jeg opplever også erfarer også økende forståelse for at ”ting tar tid”, at dette er et stort, langsiktig prosjekt.
A project with a time horizon of generations. 
Et generasjonsprosjekt.
As you know, the Orheim Committee recommended the allocation of what became known as the High North billion, and some media commentators ask about it regularly. 
Som kjent anbefalte Orheim-utvalget i sin tid en ”nordområdemilliard”, og enkelte mediekommentatorer spør jevnlig etter denne milliarden.
But the success of the strategy should not be measured by the amount of money that has been spent. 
Men strategiens suksess skal ikke måles i hvor mye penger som er brukt.
It is just as much about identifying connections and possibilities, involving actors and thinking strategically, in both the public and private spheres. 
Det handler vel så mye om å se sammenhenger og muligheter, engasjere miljøer og å tenke mer strategisk, både i det offentlige og i næringslivet.
But if we sum up the figures, we have in fact allocated close to NOK one billion in additional funding to various High North projects through three government budgets. 
Men når vi regner sammen, så har vi over tre statsbudsjetter faktisk nådd nær én milliard kroner i økninger til ulike nordområdeprosjekter.
And we do not intend to stop there. 
Vi har ikke tenkt å gi oss med det.
This morning I had an inspiring meeting with the Government’s committee of experts on the High North, which has played an important role in generating ideas and proposals. 
I morges hadde jeg et inspirerende møte med Regjeringens ekspertutvalg for nordområdene, som har spilt en viktig rolle og fått fram ideer og forslag.
I would like to thank Professor Aarbakke and the other committee members for our close and fruitful cooperation, which will be continued on the initiative of the committee. 
Professor Aarbakke og de andre utvalgsmedlemmene skal ha stor takk for et godt og fruktbart samarbeid – som på utvalgets initiativ fortsetter.
There is an ongoing process in the Government as regards setting priorities and determining on which areas we should particularly focus in our High North efforts. 
I Regjeringen har vi en prosess om hvilke prioriteringer og hvilke områder som særlig bør løftes fram i nordområdesatsingen.
Some of the projects being discussed are the Svalbard Integrated Arctic Earth Observing System, which will help to optimise the scientific use of the monitoring and research activities in Svalbard and stimulate international research cooperation, and the EISCAT 3D system. 
Prosjekter som er framme i diskusjonen er for eksempel Svalbard Integrated Arctic Earth Observing System, som vil kunne gi forbedret vitenskapelig utbytte av måle- og forkningsaktivitetene på Svalbard og stimulere det internasjonale forskningssamarbeidet, og EISCAT 3D-systemet.
We are also aware how much a new ice-class research vessel would mean to the scientific community, and the preliminary assessment is well advanced. 
Vi er også klar over hvor mye et nytt, isgående forskningsfartøy vil kunne ha å si for kompetansemiljøene.
A decision on this matter will soon be made. 
Det nærmer seg tid for beslutning.
The following are some key aspects of our intensified focus on knowledge: 
Det er noen nøkkelaspekter ved dette kunnskapsløftet:
First, there are measures designed to enhance knowledge institutions’ expertise in the fields of business development, resource management, indigenous peoples and health, and to encourage them to cooperate and coordinate their work to allow specialisation. 
For det første tiltak som skal øke kunnskapsinstitusjonenes kompetanse innen næringsutvikling, ressursforvaltning, urfolk og helse, og stimulere dem til samarbeid og arbeidsdeling.
Second, we intend to continue strengthening higher education and further develop institutions and organisations that have expertise on Norwegian-Russian cooperation. 
For det andre ønsker vi å styrke den høyere utdanning ytterligere og særlig videreutvikle fagmiljøer som har kompetanse på norsk-russisk samarbeid.
Third, we will promote cooperation between organisations and institutions, for example on graduate schools, grant schemes, professional networks and new educational programmes. 
For det tredje legger vi opp til at organisasjoner og institusjoner samarbeider om for eksempel forskerskoler, stipendiatordninger, faglige nettverk og nye studietilbud.
These measures are aimed at educating the next generation of researchers. 
Den nye generasjonen forskere.
Fourth, we will support programmes to develop environmental and energy technology, and we would like to see a more strategic approach to cooperation with northwestern Russia on education. 
For det fjerde ønsker vi å støtte programmer for utvikling av miljø- og energiteknologi, og vi ser gjerne en mer strategisk tilnærming til utdanningssamarbeidet med Nordvest-Russland.
Fifth, there are other areas where we are discussing new measures, for example the environment, climate change, maritime safety and emergency preparedness –areas that are given high priority in our 2009 budget proposal – and also business development. 
Og for det femte; det er også andre felt hvor vi drøfter nye tiltak – miljø, klima, sjøsikkerhet og beredskap – det vil si områder som også er prioritert høyt i vårt statsbudsjettsforslag for 2009, samt innen næringsutvikling.
I have already mentioned the National Transport Plan. 
Jeg nevnte nasjonal transportplan.
The next plan will be for the period 2010-2019. 
Den vil gjelde til 2019.
That is not to say that we need a deep-water port in every fjord, but sufficient capacity to keep up with increasing activity at sea. 
Ikke en dypvannshavn i hver fjord, men kapasitet til å betjene den aktiviteten som kommer i havet.
We have done this before, further south, on the coast of western Norway. 
Vi har gjort det før, lenger sør, på vestlandet.
We will do this again in the north, when and if developments make it necessary. 
Vi vil gjøre det igjen i nord, når og om ressursgrunnlaget og aktivitetene avdekkes.
We cannot make everything a priority, because that would mean a complete lack of priorities. 
Alt kan ikke prioriteres, for det betyr at vi ikke prioriterer i det hele tatt.
We need committed actors, who are impatient and provide input, and who can suggest an extra push where they believe it can make a difference. 
Vi trenger engasjerte miljøer, som utålmodige og gir innspill, og som foreslår hvor et ekstra dytt kan ha god effekt.
We are entirely dependent on close cooperation and sound knowledge to address the global challenges of the future. 
Vi er helt avhengig av et godt samarbeid, og solid kunnskap, i møte med framtidens globale utfordringer.
That is simply a fact. 
Det er et faktum.
Good luck with the conference. 
Lykke til med denne konferansen.
The research is to be conducted in cooperation with other research groups in Norway and abroad. 
Forskningen skal foregå i samarbeid med andre forskningsmiljøer i Norge og utlandet.
The centre is to be funded jointly by the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. 
Olje- og energidepartementet og Utenriksdepartementet står sammen om finansieringen av senteret.
“Greater knowledge and new technology will serve to strengthen the burgeoning petroleum activities in the Arctic. 
- Økt kunnskap og ny teknologi vil styrke den økende petroleumsaktiviteten i nordområdene.
The establishment of the new centre is a milestone in our competence-building efforts in North Norway. 
Etableringen av det nye senteret er en milepæl i arbeidet med å bygge kompetanse i Nord-Norge.
The application from Tromsø meets all the criteria we have set, and we are delighted that the work can now begin in earnest,” said Minister of Petroleum and Energy Ola Borten Moe. 
Søknaden fra Tromsø oppfyller alle de kriterier vi har satt, og det er svært gledelig at arbeidet nå kan starte for fullt, sier olje- og energiminister Ola Borten Moe.
In addition to the funding from the Government, the centre will also receive contributions from the business sector. 
I tillegg til midlene fra staten vil senteret også få bidrag fra næringslivet.
“Norway aims to be at the forefront of knowledge development on the Arctic. 
- Norge skal bli ledende på kunnskap om nordområdene.
The centre will strengthen Norway’s knowledge about petroleum activities in the Arctic, which is a key area in our efforts relating to the region,” Minister of Foreign Affairs Espen Barth Eide said. 
Senteret vil styrke norsk kunnskap om petroleumsaktivitet i Arktis som er et sentralt felt i nordområdearbeidet, sier utenriksminister Espen Barth Eide.
The Research Council of Norway will be responsible for the technical follow-up of the new centre. 
Forskningsrådet vil stå for den den faglige oppfølgingen av det nye senteret.

“Our intention is to enhance knowledge about Russia and the High North. 
– Vi vil styrke kunnskapen om Russland og om nordområdene.
Norway aims to be a leader in the field of knowledge about the High North and Russia. 
Norge skal være ledende på kunnskap om nordområdene og Russland.
The funds will be channelled through the Research Council. 
Midlene kanaliseres gjennom Forskningsrådet.
“We need to understand social development in Russia, as this also has an impact on Russian foreign policy and Russia’s cooperation with Norway,” Mr Støre said. 
- Vi har behov for å forstå russisk samfunnsutvikling som også er førende for russisk utenrikspolitikk og samarbeidet med Norge, sier utenriksminister Støre.
Due to increased international interest and improved access to resources as a result of climate change, the High North has become an important foreign policy concern for many countries and actors. 
Økt internasjonal interesse og tilgang på ressurser som følge av klimaendringene, gjør nordområdene til et viktig utenrikspolitisk anliggende for mange land og aktører.
“When developing our High North policy, we attach importance to cooperating closely with our research groups,” Mr Støre said. 
- Vi legger vekt på tett kontakt med våre kunnskapsmiljøer i utviklingen av nordområdepolitikken, sier Støre.
The NORRUSS programme will have a special focus on the significance of Asia for the High North. 
Programmet vil ha et særskilt fokus på Asias betydning for nordområdene.
“Countries in Asia are becoming increasingly involved in the High North. 
- Land i Asia engasjerer seg stadig mer i Nordområdene.
Quota for resettlement refugees for 2009 
Kvoten for overføringsflyktninger i 2009
The quota this year will primarily be filled by refugees from Eritrea, Afghanistan, Burma, Bhutan and Iraq. 
Kvoten er i år primært forbeholdt eritreere, afghanere, burmesere, bhutanesere og irakere.
Norway aims to fill 55% of the quota with women. 
Målet er at 55% skal være kvinner.
The reason this decision is based on the budget proposal is the costs connected with the reception and integration of refugees. 
Grunnen til at dette fastsettes i budsjettproposisjonen er kostnadene forbundet med mottak og integrering.
Input from the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR), the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Norwegian NGOs is also taken into account. 
Vurderinger fra FNs høykommissær for flyktninger (UNHCR), Utenriksdepartementet og norske frivillige organisasjoner inngår også i beslutningsgrunnlaget.
These are persons whom UNHCR has already assessed as having refugee status and a need for resettlement in a third country. 
UNHCR vurderer på forhånd personenes flyktningstatus og behovet for gjenbosetting i tredjeland.
In Norway, it is the Directorate of Immigration (UDI) that takes the decision on the individual cases that are put forward. 
På norsk side er det Utlendingsdirektoratet (UDI) som avgjør enkeltsakene som blir fremmet.
