Kronikk, Dagsavisen 21. mai 2008
We have come a long way since Norway hosted the first meeting in the negotiating process nearly a year and a half ago. 
Vi er kommet langt siden Norge inviterte til det første møtet i forhandlingsprosessen for snart halvannet år siden.
More than 100 states, the UN, the Red Cross and other NGOs are now gathered in Dublin for the final lap. 
Over 100 stater, FN, Røde Kors og frivillige humanitære organisasjoner er nå samlet i Dublin for sluttspurten.
The negotiations will be demanding. 
Det blir krevende forhandlinger.
The Norwegian delegation in Dublin has a clear mandate. 
Den norske delegasjonen i Dublin har et klart mandat.
It must ensure real assistance to victims and clearance of affected areas, leading to concrete improvements in the lives of those who are suffering from the consequences of these weapons now. 
Den må sikre reell støtte til ofre og rydding av rammede områder og føre til konkret bedring for dem som lever med problemet nå.
And finally, it must prevent the proliferation of cluster munitions by providing for the verified destruction of stockpiles of these weapons within a specified time-frame. 
Og endelig; den må hindre spredning av lagrede klasevåpen gjennom kontrollert og tidsavgrenset destruksjon av lagre.
This is really what the debate on cluster munitions is all about, and this is why the Government took the initiative for what is now known as the Oslo Process. 
For i bunn og grunn er det dette debatten om klaseammunisjon handler om, og dette er grunnen for at regjeringen tok initiativ til det som nå går under navnet Oslo-prosessen.
Cluster munitions are basically canisters that contain a number of submunitions. 
Kort fortalt er klaseammunisjon et større antall sprenglegemer samlet i én granat.
These submunitions are spread over a large area. 
Sprenglegemene spres over et større område.
This type of weapons is therefore often incapable of distinguishing between the intended target and innocent civilians. 
Dermed greier de ofte ikke å skille mellom målet og uskyldige sivile.
Another problem associated with many types of cluster munitions is that they leave duds, submunitions that have not exploded. 
Videre er blindgjengere et problem for mange typer ammunisjon, sprenglegemer som ikke eksploderer men blir liggende.
In many cases, duds keep on causing harm long after a conflict has ended. 
I mange tilfeller ser vi at blindgjengerne rammer lenge etter at en krig er slutt.
They hamper daily life and reconstruction long after the war is over. 
De hindrer dagligliv og gjenoppbygging i lang tid etter at krigene er over.
Sitting back passively watching the proliferation of this type of weapon is a violation of the requirement under humanitarian law to distinguish between combatants and civilians. 
Å forholde seg passivt til framveksten av denne typen ammunisjon strider mot humanitærrettens krav om å skille mellom stridende og sivile.
So far cluster munitions have been used in 26 countries. 
Klaseammunisjon er så langt brukt i 26 land.
This number could increase rapidly if we fail to agree on a ban. 
Dersom vi ikke får på plass en avtale, kan det fort bli flere.
The enormous stockpiles found in more than 70 countries all over the world pose a great proliferation risk. 
Det ligger en stor spredningsfare i de enorme lagrene som finnes i mer enn 70 stater verden over.
We are speaking of billions of small warheads. 
Vi snakker om milliarder av små stridshoder.
During the negotiations in Dublin, the focus will be on two issues in particular. 
Det er særlig to spørsmål som kommer til å stå sentralt i de pågående forhandlingene i Dublin.
The first is which weapons should be covered by the ban. 
Det første handler om hvilke våpen som skal omfattes av forbudet.
We must focus on the types of weapons that have unacceptable humanitarian consequences. 
Vi må fokusere på de våpentypene som har helt uakseptable humanitære konsekvenser.
Thus, this does not mean a ban on all weapons with more than one submunition. 
Det betyr altså ikke et forbud mot alle våpen med mer en ett sprenglegeme.
The other discussion concerns the consequences a ban would have for military cooperation with states that are not party to the convention, in military jargon called interoperability. 
Den andre diskusjonen handler om konsekvensene for militært samarbeid med stater som ikke er med i konvensjonen, såkalt interoperabilitet.
It is important for Norway as a NATO member to contribute to a result that still allows for close, ongoing joint military operations. 
For Norge som Nato-medlem er det viktig å bidra til et resultat som opprettholder muligheten til tett og løpende militære fellesoperasjoner.
NATO members have previously resolved similar issues by concluding specific cooperation agreements for the various operations. 
Natos medlemmer har løst tilsvarende spørsmål tidligere gjennom konkrete samarbeidsavtaler for de enkelte operasjonene.
Norway will actively seek to find solutions in this area. 
Norge vil aktivt arbeide for å finne løsninger på dette området.
There are those who argue that such an agreement is of little use if not all countries join. 
Noen vil innvende at en slik avtale ikke hjelper stort om ikke alle land er med.
To this I would respond that an agreement that enjoys broad support set a standard. 
Til dem vil jeg si at en avtale med bred oppslutning setter en norm.
The Land Mine Convention has been ratified by 155 countries. 
155 land har nå ratifisert minekonvensjonen.
That is three quarters of all countries in the world. 
Det er tre fjerdedeler av alle verdens land.
That does have an impact. 
Det har betydning.
If we succeed, we will have managed to add a new, important pillar to the international rules for the protection of civilians in war. 
Lykkes vi, har vi fått en ny og viktig bærebjelke i det internasjonale regelverket som skal beskytte sivile i krig.
And it will be a strong signal that it is possible to mobilise political commitment to disarmament. 
Det vil være et sterkt signal om at det er mulig å mobilisere politisk vilje til nedrustning.
A unique opportunity. 
En enestående mulighet
A total of 60 students from the school have been in Rezekne to help restore the Synagogue, and has thus gained valuable work experience at the Latvian synagogue. 
Til sammen har 60 elever ved skolen fått arbeidstrening ved den latviske synagogen.
She says that the restoration is of great significance for the Jewish community in the country: 
Hun sier restaureringen har stor betydning for det jødiske samfunnet i landet:
During the war, Latvian synagogues were burned by the Nazis. 
Synagogene i Latvia ble brent av nazistene.
It is a miracle that the ‘Green Synagogue’ survived the World War II.
