According to the politician, Ukraine is waging a "fair defensive war."

“Norway has supported and will continue to support Ukraine both militarily and in other respects,” RIA Novosti quoted him as saying, citing the Aftonbladet newspaper.

In September, it was reported that Norway would transfer about 160 Hellfire missiles, launchers and guidance systems, as well as night vision devices to Ukraine.

As Russian Interior Minister Vladimir Kolokoltsev noted, Western weapons supplied to Ukraine through black markets often end up with organized crime groups and terrorists in Europe and other regions.
