On behalf of the Norwegian people, I sincerely thank you for your support in these difficult times.
We are all shocked and deeply affected by the tragic loss of innocent life and our youth who would be our future politicians. Norway has dearly paid the cost of advocating the values of democracy, human rights and cultural diversity. I am, however, certain that our tradition of tolerance and mutual respect will help the country through these difficult times.
Your expressions of support and sympathy are truly appreciated. The international community’s response has been overwhelming, and is warming the hearts of survivors, their families and the people of Norway.
