Friends of Palestine in the Parliament of Norway


Friends of Palestine in the Parliament of Norway is a pro-Palestine caucus group consisting of members of the Parliament of Norway.
The initiative to form the group was taken in late 2007, and was modelled after the pro-Israel group Israels Venner på Stortinget. After the 2009 election, the group convened. Torbjørn Røe Isaksen joined the groups for support of both Israel and Palestine, and was the only member from a non-socialist party. The leader of Palestinas Venner is Anette Trettebergstuen. After the 2009 election the group had 29 members.

Present members (2013–2017)

As of August 2014, the Friends of Palestine have a total of 23 members, 19 from the Labour Party and 4 from the Socialist Left Party.
Two members, Kari Henriksen and Sverre Myrli were also members of Friends of Israel.
