Støre Epstein-grilles: – Ingen dekning for å bruke ord som ukultur

The first of two days of hearings on "control and culture in foreign service" began at 09:00, with the Control and Constitution Committee aiming to understand how the UN handled warnings about the IPI and Epstein, as well as the follow-up to the million-dollar grant to IPI. The core question is whether the department's culture made it vulnerable to nepotism and corruption.

The committee heard from former development ministers Eirik Solheim and Heikki Eidsvoll Holmås, followed by current Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, Børge Brende, and Ine Eriksen Søreide.
