‘Norway is a trading nation. 
- Norge er en handelsnasjon.
Few countries are more dependent on foreign trade than we are. 
Få land er mer avhengige av handel med utlandet enn Norge.
Today, the Government is presenting a white paper on its work to secure increased market access for Norwegian companies and better predictability for exports of goods and services and for investments,’ said Minister of Foreign Affairs Børge Brende. 
Regjeringen legger i dag fram en stortingsmelding om arbeidet med å sikre norske bedrifter økt markedsadgang og bedre forutsigbarhet for eksport av varer, tjenester og investeringer, sier Børge Brende.
The Government will work to promote freer trade and will pursue a proactive trade policy that emphasises Norway’s interests. 
Regjeringen vil arbeide for en friere handel og føre en offensiv handelspolitikk som vektlegger Norges interesser.
This means helping to ensure fair and equal trade rules in today’s open, global economy. 
Dette betyr å bidra til å sikre like og rettferdige spilleregler i dagens åpne, globale økonomi.
‘The World Trade Organization (WTO) agreements, the EEA Agreement and the EFTA free trade agreements are the cornerstones of Norwegian trade policy. 
- Verdens handelsorganisasjon, supplert av EØS og Eftas frihandelsavtaler, utgjør bærebjelken i norsk handelspolitikk.
Safeguarding and strengthening the multilateral trade system is Norway’s main trade policy interest,’ Foreign Minister Brende said. 
Bevaring og styrking av det multilaterale handelssystemet er Norges primære handelspolitiske interesse, sier Brende.
Trade policy is primarily a tool for promoting value creation and employment in Norway. 
Norsk handelspolitikk er primært et virkemiddel for å skape verdiskapning og sysselsetting i Norge.
At the same time, the white paper points out that international trade can help us to reach foreign and development policy goals such as peaceful cooperation between countries and better opportunities for inclusive, sustainable development for all. 
Samtidig viser meldingen at internasjonal handel kan bidra til å nå utenrikspolitiske og utviklingspolitiske mål som fredelig samarbeid mellom land og bedre muligheter for inkluderende bærekraftig utvikling for alle.
Moreover, Norway lacks free trade agreements with six of the world’s ten largest economies. 
Norge står også uten frihandelsavtaler med seks av verdens ti største økonomier.
‘This white paper presents Norwegian trade policy priorities in a changing global economy. 
- Med en global økonomi i endring gjør meldingen rede for norske prioriteringer i handelspolitikken.
As outlined in the white paper, the Government will: 
Blant tiltakene i meldingen er at regjeringen vil:
Intensify its efforts to make active use of trade policy in its strengthened economic diplomacy work. 
Øke innsatsen for å bruke handelspolitikken aktivt i et styrket økonomisk diplomati.
Give greater priority to the work to ensure free trade in seafood on the EU market. 
Gi økt prioritet til arbeidet for å sikre frihandel for sjømat til EU-markedet.
Phase out all export subsidies, at the latest by the end of 2019. 
Fase ut alle eksportsubsidier innen 2019.
Seek to safeguard Norway’s overall interests while the TTIP negotiations between the EU and the US are being conducted, and emphasise the Norwegian business sector’s need for equal conditions of competition. 
Arbeide for å sikre samlede norske interesser mens TTIP-forhandlingene mellom EU og USA pågår, samt vektlegge norsk næringslivs behov for likeverdige konkurransevilkår.
Consider changes that would give further trade preferences to poor developing countries that export goods and services to Norway. 
Vurdere endringer som gir ytterligere preferanser for fattige utviklingsland ved eksport til Norge.
Increase support for trade-related development cooperation, also in connection with free trade agreements. 
Øke støtten til handelsrelatert utviklingssamarbeid, inkludert i forbindelse med frihandelsavtaler.

Norway is a pioneer when it comes to gender equality, and our legitimacy in this area enables us to play a leading role globally,' said Mr Brende. 
Norge er et foregangsland for likestilling, og vår legitimitet gir oss mulighet til å innta en lederrolle globalt, sier utenriksminister Brende.
