Tempo og effektivitet i Norges støtte til Ukraina
Norge skal i 2025 gi 72,5 milliarder kroner i militær støtte til Ukraina. Med denne økningen er Norge helt i toppen blant landene som gir støtte til Ukraina, som andel av BNP. Men hvor mye penger Norge bruker på støtte til Ukraina er kun én side av saken. Et annet spørsmål er om norske myndigheter klarer å bruke disse pengene raskt nok og på en måte som setter Ukraina i stand til å forsvare seg mest mulig effektivt. Denne policy briefen identifiserer ukrainske behov, norske begrensinger og gir innspill til hvordan Norge kan lykkes best mulig med å bidra til økt ukrainsk kampkraft.

Polish-Norwegian Perceptions and Interactions
This working paper which is one of deliverables of the NORPOLFACTOR project maps mutual perceptions of Poland in Norway and Norway in Poland, the basic ideas informing their approaches to security-related challenges caused by their location in Russia’s neighbourhood as well as what could be termed as areas of cooperation and points of contention in their cooperation on addressing various security related challenges in the context of the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Norway and Romania: Navigating Information Warfare
The study „Norway and Romania: Navigating Information Warfare” explores the use of disinformation, propaganda, and interference to manipulate public discourse amid the Ukraine war. It discusses how these tactics exploit historical and border sensitivities to delegitimize Ukraine and distract from the global economic impacts of Russian aggression. The research highlights how such strategies shift blame and reshape international perceptions favorably towards Russia. The study analyzes how Russian political warfare manifests itself in both Norway and Romania, dwelling on the particularities of each country. This study is one of deliverables of the FLANKS II project conducted jointly by New Strategy Center in Romania and the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs (NUPI) in Oslo.
