Former Foreign Minister Ine Eriksen Søreide (H) believes there are good reasons for Jens Stoltenberg to continue as Secretary General of NATO.
–
Stoltenberg has received repeated calls from several important NATO countries, probably the United States and Germany among them, to continue as Secretary General.
Søreide, who now chairs the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, believes that Norway should support such an extension if Stoltenberg himself wants, according to VG.
– Jens Stoltenberg does a very good job as Secretary General of NATO and enjoys great trust in the alliance. We are now in the most serious security situation in Europe for many decades, and there are strong arguments for wanting continuity in the leadership position in NATO, she says.
Stoltenberg’s contract as Secretary General of NATO expires on 1 October this year. He himself has said he does not want to continue, and he is now among the applicants for the position of head of the central bank.
