This is best achieved by contributing to peace, security and stability both in areas adjacent to Norway and in the wider world. Nationally Norway must be in a position to uphold its sovereignty and sove- reign rights and to exercise authority in order to safeguard our interests.

This is also in accordance with the EU and the BBC. Examples: organisation (not organization – except fixed names: North Atlantic Treaty Organization) globalisation (not globalization) to organise (not to organize) to recognise (not to recognize) to analyse (not to analyze) Resources: Oxford Dictionaries: https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/ EU Spelling Conventions: http://publications.europa.eu/code/en/en-4100000.htm 3 2.

Less understood is the important and positive role that these US-Norwegian bilateral defense agreements This is especially relevant in a Norwegian context. The US- (BLDAs) have for NATO.

We have moved from a situation in which the Armed Forces had a clearly defined and all-embracing threat which we were trained and equipped to resist – and which we could actually plan for – to a far more complex and unpredictable spectrum of possible scenarios. It is no longer sufficient to make concrete plans. Today we need to understand the possibilities and limitations of military force and, not least, the political and social context in which we operate. For these reasons a knowledge-based understanding of the role and nature of military force has become more important than static defence planning. The Norwegian Armed Forces Joint Operational Doctrine (FFOD) is thus an important document.
