The Party of European Socialists congratulates Labour Party leader and Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre on his re-election following Labour’s victory in Norway’s election, securing 28% of the vote and 53 seats.

PES President Stefan Löfven said:

“I would like to congratulate my dear friend Jonas on yet another successful campaign. Under your leadership, Norwegians are seeing real wage growth, unemployment remains low and a dynamic business sector is thriving. Through sound economic management, more effective pathways from welfare-to-work, and a well-organised labour market, people’s lives continue to improve. I look forward to our continued cooperation as together we strive to build a better tomorrow for the generations to come.’’

As Norway opens the next chapter of its history, social democrats remain committed to tackling the cost-of-living crisis, reducing inequality, combatting climate change and strengthening security. Never faltering from creating a more just society that looks out for all citizens.
