As I mentioned then, Mr. Brinch has stated that the use of the words "further assurances" might be taken as implying that the Norwegian Government has already given the assur­ ances r.eferred to, mch he denies. We all agreed this afternoon that the reference to "further assurances" was made as a quotation from Mr. Hoppenot•s memorandum to Mr. Black dated March 24, 1955 and that in ao doing the Bank did not endorse the meorandum or any particu­ lar implication that the words used in it might carry.

TO: FILES DATE: April 12, 1955 FROM: S. R. Cope SUBJECT: Loan to Norway - Use of Borrowed sterling Mr . Flett called me this morning to say that London had given a generally favorable reaction to the points I had raised with him earlier; namely, the absence of any reference to competitive bidding in the documents dealing with the loan and the use by the Bank of the remainder of its bor­ rowed sterling for the loan. As yet he had no final instructions, but he did not expect any difficulty. He added that London expressed the hope that we were not counting on coming back to the London market in the immediate future for a further sterling issue: if the question were raised, the Chancellor's answer might be different than it would have been had condi­ tions been the same as they were last year. I said that while, of course, we would want to come back to the London market sooner or later, I recog­ nized that the situation at the present time made a loan out of the question. -' cc: Mr. Hoar Mr. Riley , Mr. le j eune Mr. King April 12t 1955 rro sterling e ;ye ago Is ke to • l tt or our intention to se batant~ all our re ing borro aterlin for the <r gian loan. l sterday he called to aay that he bad ea.rd r Lo on to the effect that they bad no objections to our doin , but that v should not co\lDt on 1ng abl to e uother is t t e- nt t , e.e ket conditions were less faTOrable than they era last ye • I aai that while conditions might not propitious at th re nt nt in rlev of th increase 1n rate, should t to c th ket again t the irst con en1ent opportunit7. ect Mr. Iloar • le7 Mr. Lejeune SRCopeaeed • t • I • I al.80. the date ot t tor the bo ubllc issue 1n re ' loan.

Mai 2001 9:16 09 The Liaison Committee of Historians came into being in 1982 as a result of an important international symposium that the Commission had organized in Luxembourg to launch historical research on Euro- pean integration. The committee is composed of historians of the European Union member countries who work on contemporary history. The Liaison Committee: – gathers and conveys information about work on European history after the Second World War; – advises the European Union on research projects concerning contemporary European history. Thus, the Liaison Committee was commissioned to make publicly available the archives of the Community institutions; – enables researchers to make better use of the archival sources; – promotes research meetings to get an update of work in progress and to stimulate new research: seven research conferences have been organized and their proceedings published. The Journal of European Integration History – Revue d’histoire de l’intégration européenne – Zeitschrift für Geschichte der europäischen Integration is in line with the preoccupations of the Liaison Committee. Being the first history journal to deal exclusively with the history of European Integration, the Journal offers the increasing number of young historians devoting their research to contemporary Europe, a permanent forum. The Liaison Committee is supported by the European Commission, but works completely independ- ently and according to historians’ critical method.

    Bridging the Atlantic a Norwegian Contribution to US Sealift

    C O N C E P T P A P E R S E R I E S /2 0 1 9 Bridging the Atlantic A Norwegian Contribution to US Sealift Åse Gilje Østensen and Ståle Ulriksen There is currently considerable concern with US capacity to muster the acquired number of sealift vessels needed to swiftly deploy forces overseas. Norway for its part has a large, modern, and versatile merchant fleet that could be militarily useful in case of NATO operations to reinforce Europe. This brief suggest a bilateral agreement be signed between Norway and the US that obliges Norway to muster a significant number of Norwegian-controlled ships to support transatlantic US sealift operations. Norway, along with most other European NATO member states, relies on US reinforcements for its national security. These reinforcements arrive by sea. Therefore, an agreement such as the one suggested in this brief serves the security interests of the US, Norway, and the rest of the European NATO states. REVITALIZING TRANSATLANTIC MARITIME SECURITY The research project “Revitalizing Transatlantic Maritime Security: Filling Capability Gaps with the Norwegian Commercial Shipping Sector” intends to bring forward creative ideas on how to fill logistical gaps by leveraging private -public partnerships with merchant fleet operators. The project is a collaboration between Center for New American Security, Norwegian Institiute of International Affairs and the Royal Norwegian Naval Academy. The project is funded by a research grant provided by the Norwegian Ministry of Defence. Norwegian Defence University College Royal Norwegian Naval Academy Concept Paper Series 2 1/2019 The United States has long had a unique capability contribute to the military muscle of NATO that do to project power around the world by rapidly not cripple the country’s military presence in the deploying military forces.

    Motstanden I Eiker 1940–45 Og Frigjøringsdagen

    Motstanden i Eiker 1940-45 og frigjøringsdagen Noen datoer har vært viktigere å minnes enn andre. Det gjelder ikke minst 8. mai, frigjøringsdagen, da verdenskrigen her hjemme endelig var slutt.1 Da minnes pionerenes innsats i Norge og utenfor landets grenser. Det gjelder motstandskjemperne, det gjelder sjøfolkene og de det gikk verst utover, jødene, - i det hele tatt motstandskampen - slik at denne store dagen faktisk til slutt kom. Før vi går nærmere inn på dem som gikk i spissen i denne kampen i Nedre Eiker, må vi først se nærmere på den omgjøringen av frigjøringsdagen som har skjedd. I de siste årene har Forsvaret omgjort denne dagen til veterandagen. Det skaper inntrykk av at motstandskampen bare var et uttrykk for Forsvarets innsats mot en fiende som kom utenfra og okkuperte oss. Men hva var realiteten? Forsvaret ble raskt utradert i 1940 og ble bare i liten grad bygd opp i eksil under alliert kommando. Senere var det visse tilløp med Milorg mot slutten av krigen. Offiserskorpset spilte i det hele tatt en ytterst marginal rolle. Motstandskampen var stort sett drevet fram av sivilister, med andre perspektiver enn offiserer som hadde underskrevet æresord til tyskerne om å avstå fra motstand. De så seg som deltakere i samfunnets kamp for frihet. For svært mange av dem framsto motstandskampen som en fase i den lange kampen for folkestyre og demokrati, med lange røtter bakover i norsk historie. Okkupasjonen var nemlig ikke bare fremmedstyre. Den var nazisme. Nazistaten var en helt ny måte å organisere samfunnet på. Den "nye tid" kom med maktmidler "ohne Gesetzte" - altså uten hensyn til rettsregler - for å knuse all opposisjon, med tvang, terror, tortur, ensretting og rasistisk utryddelse, alt for å sikre makten.

    c cial S ien o ce s S Lysgard and Tenden, Arts Social Sci J 2019, 10:3 d J n o a u r s n t a r l A Arts and Social Sciences Journal ISSN: 2151-6200 Review Article Open Access The Norwegian Merchant Fleet - The Small State’s Multi Tool for Future Crisis Asbjorn Lysgard* and Ole Christian Tenden Department of Military Strategy and Operations, Norwegian Defence Staff and Command College, Norwegian Defence University College, Norway Abstract In a complex world with humanitarian crises, natural disasters, migration, terrorism, and piracy, Norway has an obligation to protect and assist both its own citizens and international partners all over the globe within its limited means. Norway’s merchant fleet forward presence, the unique legal framework between the Norwegian Government and the Norwegian Ship owners Association, and the international networks of maritime clusters can enable rapid logistical support for an expeditionary force in a hasty crisis response or limited contingency operation. Discussion: The Kingdom of Norway has long-held seafarer traditions and has managed one of the world’s most substantial commercial fleets for centuries. In the world wars, Norway had the world’s third biggest commercial fleet. When invaded by Germany, the Norwegian Government requisitioned all Norwegian ships and established the Norwegian Shipping and Trade Mission. The world wars led to a close cooperation between the Norwegian Government and the Norwegian Ship owners, which continues today. The merchant ships play a significant role in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization’s Article V logistical plans or support of the “Out of Area” concept.

In 1959 EFTA was instead established, with the three Scandinavian countries included among the seven founding countries. Contemporary observers claimed that the Scandinavian cus- toms union henceforth ". at most would serve as a subject for dissertations for future researchers on Nordic cooperation".3 This article is based on my dissertation on the plans for a Scandinavian customs union, and the Norwegian attitude towards these. Norway has been judged, both by contemporaries and in hindsight by researchers, to be the most reluctant among the Scandinavian countries towards Scandinavian cooperation and a Scandinavian customs union. This conclusion will be discussed and modified in this article. My argument is that Norway throughout this period pursued a fairly consistent and positive policy towards closer Scandi- Ingrid Sogner, born 1964, Cand.
