International cooperation; crucial to Norway’s security, economy and prosperity
The rules-based international order is crucial to seek solutions to common challenges. Multilateral institutions like the UN have played a key role in developing the rules-based international system of cooperation between states. A key goal for Norwegian foreign policy over the coming years is to support binding international cooperation and the multilateral system.
