Statement at the 16th Session of the Human Rights Council 
Innlegg i FNs menneskerettighetsråds 16. sesjon
Norway and Bulgaria strengthen cooperation on fight against human trafficking 
Norge og Bulgaria styrker samarbeidet mot menneskehandel
Funds from the EEA and Norway Grants will be used in the fight against organised crime and human trafficking in Bulgaria. 
Norske EØS-midler skal brukes i kampen mot organisert kriminalitet og menneskehandel i Bulgaria.
Minister of Foreign Affairs Jonas Gahr Støre commented, “The fight against human trafficking and organised crime can only be won through international cooperation. 
– Kampen mot menneskehandel og organisert kriminalitet vinnes kun gjennom internasjonalt samarbeid.
These criminal bands are mobile and respect no boundaries. 
Disse kriminelle bandene er mobile og kjenner ingen grenser.
The Norwegian Police Directorate is involved in this cooperation. 
Politidirektoratet er norsk samarbeidspartner.
Funding of around NOK 50 million will be made available through the Grants. 
Det er satt av omlag 50 millioner kroner.
This will be used for strengthening border control in Bulgaria both on land and at sea, and cooperation between the police in the Schengen area will also be enhanced. 
Samtidig skal samarbeidet mellom politiet i Schengen-området styrkes.
In addition, priority will be given to assistance to victims of human trafficking and violence in close relationships. 
Hjelp til ofre for menneskehandel og vold i nære relasjoner prioriteres også.
A total of NOK 140 million will be used to fund projects in the justice and home affairs sector. 
Totalt 140 millioner kroner skal brukes på prosjekter innen justissektoren.
The Council of Europe will be an important partner in this field. 
Europarådet blir en viktig samarbeidspartner innenfor dette feltet.
The EEA and Norway Grants are intended to help to reduce social and economic disparities in Europe, and are provided in a spirit of solidarity by Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein. 
EØS-midlene skal bidra til å redusere sosiale og økonomiske forskjeller i Europa.
In addition to the justice and home affairs sector, Norwegian and Bulgarian partners will cooperate on a number of other areas. 
I tillegg til justissektoren skal norske og bulgarske partnere samarbeide innenfor en rekke andre områder.
More than NOK 100 million has been earmarked for developing new green companies. 
Det er satt av over 100 millioner kroner til utvikling av nye grønne bedrifter.
Bulgaria’s Roma population is also a priority. 
Bulgarias rombefolkning prioriteres også.
The aim is that 10% of the EEA and Norway Grants will be used to improve their situation. 
Det er et mål at 10 prosent av EØS-midlene går til å bedre deres situasjon.
“The Roma are probably the most stigmatised group in Europe today. 
– Rom er sannsynligvis den mest stigmatiserte gruppen i Europa i dag.
Two key factors for social inclusion are education and the opportunity to keep their culture alive. 
Viktige forutsetninger for inkludering er blant annet utdanning og mulighet til å ta vare på sin egen kultur.
The Council of Europe will be an important partner in this respect, and will help to ensure that the EEA and Norway Grants meet these targets in Bulgaria,” said Mr Støre. 
Europarådet blir en viktig samarbeidspartner gjennom EØS-midlene for å bidra til å oppnå disse målene i Bulgaria, sier Støre.
The Norwegian Association of Local and Regional Authorities has been engaged to strengthen competence and capacity in local and regional administration. 
Kommunenes Sentralforbund er engasjert for å styrke kompetansen og kapasiteten i lokal og regional forvaltning.
One of the projects addresses challenges and opportunities in Bulgaria’s border areas. 
Et av prosjektene handler om utfordringer og muligheter i Bulgarias grenseområder.
The Barents Secretariat in Kirkenes will share its experience in this connection. 
Her skal Barentssekretariatet i Kirkenes dele sine erfaringer.
