After handing over her credentials to the President, Stener stated, “I am extremely happy to finally be in India and look forward to experiencing this vast and diverse country. I believe Norway and India share a strong bond together, and I hope to further strengthen the partnership during my tenure. India is culturally diverse and I look forward to immersing myself in its various facets. Thank you for a warm welcome, India”.

According to a statement provided by the Norwegian embassy, Norway and India share a strong and growing bilateral relationship in areas including the ocean, energy, and environment, and the bilateral trade between both countries has doubled in recent years.

“The Norwegian Sovereign Wealth Fund is likely one of India’s largest single foreign investors (around USD 17.6 billion)”, the statement reads.

“There are around 200 Norwegian companies operating in India, and over 20,000 Indians live in Norway, making people-to-people linkages deep and strong”, the statement added.
