In a time where things are changing on the geopolitical stage, it is especially good to work close with trusted partners and friends. The fact is, I often look to the US for inspiration. All of us will benefit from the innovations in green and clean technology that are sure to come as US industries lean into the future and I sincerely believe that Norway can make significant contributions to the green transition in the United States. I’m grateful for the great bond between our countries, and I’m grateful for the things we have achieved together.
