– Report with disappointment that the government will not accept more than 50, says Utne-Reitan to TV 2.
He was a candidate for mayor for the Conservative Party in 2015, and has also served on the city council for 16 years.
– Too low
Utne-Reitan doesn’t even have a specific number that it considers reasonable for Norway to accept.
– It is the Greek authorities who know best where the shoe hits. We must work with them to find a suitable number, says Utne-Reitan, adding:
– But starting with a number of 50 I think it’s too low.
He has a clear message for Prime Minister Erna Solberg.
– Find the warm conservatives I know who will help people in need, says Utne-Reitan.
– Large Heart Cloak
Solberg believes that conservatives “manage to use their heart and mind and help as many people as possible.”
– There is a great layer of heart behind what we do. That is, to make sure you spend the most money where it helps the most. In fact, it must be the case that we are measured by the effect for those who need help, not just by the good conscience we have or the amount of reports we receive in the media for what we do here at home, said the Prime Minister to TV 2 since the party’s national meeting on Friday.
– Help more than 50
He receives the full support of his government colleague, Justice Minister Monica Mæland.
– We are concerned about contributing to a difficult situation for many in the world. We are among the countries that receive the most refugees and the most aid, even how many inhabitants we are.
– But now there is a strong demand for Norway to help over 50. How do you react to that?
– We help more than 50. We accept 3,000 refugees. We have decided to do that. That is a very high number. We are concerned about taking our part, says Mæland.
