U.S.-TURKEY RELATIONS The U.S.-Turkey friendship dates to 1831, when the United States established diplomatic relations with the Ottoman Empire. After World War I and the founding of the Turkish Republic, the United States established diplomatic relations with Turkey in 1927. The Economic and Technical Cooperation agreement – signed July 12, 1947 between the United States and Turkey – advanced the relationship further. The agreement implemented the Truman Doctrine and its policy “to support free peoples who are resisting attempted subjugation by armed minorities or by outside pressures.” The United States condemned the July 15, 2016, coup attempt in Turkey and continues to emphasize the importance of Turkish government responses that build public trust in Turkey’s democratic institutions and the rule of law consistent with human rights’ 7 https://www.state.gov/u-s-relations-with-turkey/ 1/17/2020 U.S. Relations With Turkey - United States Department of State commitments. Turkey is a key NATO Ally and critical regional partner, and the United States is committed to improving the relationship between our two countries. It is in our interest to keep Turkey anchored to the Euro-Atlantic community. Security Cooperation Turkey is an important U.S. security partner. Turkey has been a valued North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Ally since 1952. Turkey is a leader in the Alliance’s Resolute Support Mission in Afghanistan and serves as NATO’s vital eastern anchor, controlling (in accordance with international conventions) the straits of the Bosporus and the Dardanelles, which link the Black Sea with the Mediterranean. Turkey is engaged in intensive efforts to defeat terrorist organizations both inside and outside its borders, including the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), the Revolutionary People’s Liberation Party/Front (DHKP-C), and ISIS. As a vital member of the Defeat ISIS Coalition, Turkey opened its military bases to the United States and Coalition partners in July 2015. Since that time, Incirlik Air Base has been critical in the effort to degrade and ultimately destroy ISIS in Syria and Iraq. Turkey contributes to international security alongside U.S. forces in Afghanistan, the seas bordering Somalia, and in the Mediterranean. Turkey borders Greece, Bulgaria, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Iran, Iraq, and Syria, and is a key partner for U.S. policy in the surrounding region. Bilateral Economic Relations Although overall U.S.-Turkey trade jumped from $10.8 billion in 2009 to $20.5 billion in 2018, it remains modest compared to its potential. In 2017, Turkey was the United States’ 28th largest goods export market and its 34th largest supplier of goods imports. Turkey is the 10th largest purchaser of U.S. LNG exports worldwide and an emerging regional energy hub. The top categories of U.S. exports to Turkey include aircraft, mineral fuels, iron and steel, machinery, cotton, and agriculture. The top import categories from Turkey include machinery, vehicles, carpet and other textile coverings, iron and steel and their products, agriculture, and stone, plaster, cement. Reported U.S. direct investment in Turkey is led by manufacturing, wholesale trade, and finance and insurance. 8 https://www.state.gov/u-s-relations-with-turkey/ 1/17/2020 U.S. Relations With Turkey - United States Department of State Although not a member of the European Union (EU), Turkey has a customs union with the EU. Turkey’s Membership in International Organizations Turkey hosted the G20 in 2015. Turkey is a member of NATO, the UN, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the Council of Europe, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), the World Trade Organization (WTO), the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC) Council, the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank, and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). Turkey also is an observer to the Organization of American States, a Dialogue Partner of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and a sectoral dialogue partner of the Association of Southeastern Asian Nations (ASEAN). Turkey is a candidate for EU membership and is working towards accession. The United States is convinced that a Turkey that meets EU membership criteria would be good for the EU, and that Turkey’s efforts to meet those criteria is good for Turkey. Bilateral Representation Principal embassy officials are listed in the Department’s Key Officers List. Turkey maintains an embassy in the United States at 2525 Massachusetts Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20008, tel. (202) 612-6700.

Ein analyse av norske partileiarars facebooksider Eirik Nymark Esperås Masteroppgåve i medievitskap Institutt for informasjons- og medievitskap, Universitetet i Bergen September 2013 Forord Ganske nøyaktig eitt år har passert, og eg kan no sette det endelege punktumet for arbeidet med denne oppgåva. Året har utan tvil vore det mest hektiske, utfordrande, lærerike og ikkje minst spanande i mi tid ved universitetet. Sjølv om masteroppgåva markerer slutten på studietida og ein viktig livsfase, indikerer den samtidig byrjinga på noko nytt. Eg er overtydd om at forskingsarbeidet har gitt meg nye kunnskapar og erfaringar som eg kan ta med meg inn i tilveret som arbeidstakar. Jan Fredrik Hovden fortener ein enorm takk for alle nyttige innspel og grundige tilbakemeldingar. Ditt engasjement og oppriktige interesse for oppgåva har vore ein stor motivasjonsfaktor. Eg kunne ikkje fått ein betre rettleiar. Takk til mamma og pappa for korrekturlesing og støttande ord. Sist men ikkje minst vil eg takke min kjæraste og beste venn Hilde, både for korrekturlesing og ein ustoppeleg optimisme. No skal også eg lage middag! Takk til dei som har krydra kvardagen min utan at dei veit det: Håkan Hellström, Morrissey, John Olav Nilsen og FK Haugesund.

  • High-Level Statement1
    HIGH-LEVEL STATEMENT1 We made promises which we intend to keep. We promised that women and girls would be at the center of many of the Sustainable Development Goals which the world came together to agree in 2016. America’s Global Gag Rule breaks that promise as it has a chilling effect on health services for the world’s most vulnerable women and girls. It will imperil millions of women and girls’ lives by increasing unintended pregnancies and unsafe abortions. It will also reverse decades of progress on reproductive, maternal and child health by putting critical health and family planning services and supplies out of reach for those who most need them. There are currently 225 million women in developing countries who want to avoid pregnancy but are not using modern contraception. Maternal mortality is the second‐leading cause of death for girls aged 15 to 19 years old, and the burden of unsafe abortion also falls overwhelmingly on the poorest. The evidence shows that access to contraception is transformative for girls, women and their families and communities. It is linked to greater gender equality, educational attainment and economic development. Health providers around the world face a painful choice between losing their US funding and losing the freedom to offer a full range of reproductive health services. We’ve been here before. Since its inception in 1984, the Global Gag Rule has been put into place at the start of every Republican administration and promptly rescinded under each Democratic administration. It’s time to take politics out of gender rights.

  • Kartlegging Av Partienes Toppkandidaters Erfaring Fra Næringslivet Stortingsvalget 2021
    Kartlegging av partienes toppkandidaters erfaring fra næringslivet Stortingsvalget 2021 I det videre følger en kartlegging av hvilken erfaring fra næringslivet toppkandidatene fra dagens stortingspartier i hver valgkrets har. Det vil si at i hver valgkrets, har alle de ni stortingspartiene fått oppført minst én kandidat. I tillegg er det kartlagt også for øvrige kandidater som har en relativt stor sjanse for å bli innvalgt på Stortinget, basert på NRKs «supermåling» fra juni 2021. I noen valgkretser er det derfor mange «toppkandidater». Dette skyldes at det er stor usikkerhet knyttet til hvilke partier som vinner de siste distriktsmandatene, og ikke minst utjevningsmandatene. Følgende to spørsmål har vært utgangspunktet for kartleggingen: 1. Har kandidaten drevet egen bedrift? 2. Har kandidaten vært ansatt daglig leder i en bedrift? Videre er kartleggingen basert på følgende kilder: • Biografier på Stortingets nettside. • Offentlig tilgjengelig informasjon på nettsider som Facebook, LinkedIn, Proff.no, Purehelp.no og partienes egne hjemmesider. • Medieoppslag som sier noe om kandidatenes yrkesbakgrunn. Kartleggingen har derfor flere mulige feilkilder. For eksempel kan informasjonen som er offentlig tilgjengelig, være utdatert eller mangelfull. For å begrense sjansen for feil, har kildene blitt kryssjekket. SMB Norge tar derfor forbehold om dette ved offentliggjøring av kartleggingen, eller ved bruk som referanse.

Spesielt offshoresegmentet og de store verftene, som også har vært gjennom en krevende omstilling etter oljekrisen i 2014, ble hardt rammet av pandemiutbruddet. Prognosene viste i april 2020 at nærmingen nasjonalt kunne miste over 20 000 arbeidsplasser frem mot utgangen av 2022, og nye prognoser fra august bekreftet de dystre utsiktene. Tallene for Møre og Romsdal er ikke bedre fordi flere offshorerederi og store verft er i vårt fylke. Med dette alvorlige bakteppet har Maritimt Forum sentralt fortløpende avlevert innspill til regjeringen og storting om det presserende behovet for omfattende og aktivitetsskapende krisetiltak, for å avhjelpe de mest kriseutsatte segmentene.
