Brussels – Norway’s Labour Party won<\/a> elections, but the right advanced more than expected. The centre-left of outgoing Prime Minister Jonas Gahr St\u00f8re won enough seats in yesterday’s parliamentary elections<\/strong> in Norway to continue governing. On the other side, the right-wing populist party<\/strong> of Silvy Listhaug<\/a> exceeded expectations, getting 24 percent of the votes,<\/strong> the best result ever. The right wing failed to break through, as Erna Solberg’s conservatives reduced their support.<\/p>\n

Labour received the most significant number of votes,<\/strong> at 28 percent, a slight increase from previous polls. The government coalition that emerges will consist of 53 Labour MPs, 10 from the centre party, 18 from two left-wing parties, and eight from the Greens. It is precisely the Greens<\/strong> that could be the thorn in the Prime Minister’s side. Their opposition to oil extraction activities is at odds with the Prime Minister’s wishes. <\/p>\n

After the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Norway increased its energy exports to EU countries. Its economy remains strongly oil-driven<\/strong>: a sector that has made the country one of the richest in the world. To ensure stability, Jonas Gahr St\u00f8re’s government will give a prominent role to former NATO Secretary Jens Stoltenberg, who has been the economy minister in previous months. Despite their success, the Labour Party will have to contend with weaker allies:<\/strong> the centrists were halved by the vote, while the right-wing opposition is stronger.<\/strong> Silvy Listhaug’s Progress Party has achieved a strong consensus among young people,<\/strong> proving that she will also count in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
