Nikolai Astrup admits it “went wrong” when he dragged July 22 into the discussion about today’s new government quarter.
It was today on Politisk kvarter NRK that Astrup said that the Labor Party had learned nothing from the terror of July 22, as Councilor Raymond Johansen (Labor Party) is questioning the great new government neighborhood Astrup wants.
– July 22 was the consequence of not having taken seriously the purpose of the Security Law. And here Johansen is in the study and is about to wish the same mistake again, said the Minister of Local Government.
On Twitter, Astrup apologizes:
The last wording went wrong. The point is that the requirements of the Security Act must have an impact on the design and location of the new government district.

– He does it wisely
City Councilman Raymond Johansen says Astrup is smart and has now gone flat.
– I see that Nikolai Astrup has complained on Twitter, and he does it wisely, says Johansen to Dagbladet.
– Do you understand if the people of the Labor Party and the AUF were supported?
– Yes. Everything about July 22 is the biggest trauma we felt in the Labor Party, and to use it in the sordid way Astrup did, I don’t think about it at all. I shouldn’t have done that, says Johansen, adding:
– And then I finished the case. I want to discuss the plans for the new government quarter and security.
Johansen’s point is that the very premise of a new government district must be discussed. The current premise, which was used in the fall of 2011 with horror in mind, is based on a co-location.

I want debate
The price of the new mastodon could be NOK 36 billion. Critics call the government’s plans “bunkers in the center of Oslo.”
Johansen would prefer to have a continued expansion of ministries.
– The entire terrorist landscape has changed dramatically from 2011 to today. We have seen truck attacks and many knife attacks. I think we need to discuss the threat landscape and how we can best build ministries for the future, without huddling in office buildings. Let’s have the debate now, let’s not just let the government go ahead and say that everyone who disagrees does not prioritize safety, Johansen continues to Dagbladet Thursday morning.
