Dear readers: The Oslo Freedom Forum is being held this week. OFF is the annual human-rights gathering in the Norwegian capital. I have said a little about this year’s Forum already. I will have considerably more to say later. In the meantime, might you like an Oslo journal, in a couple of installments or more? At Oslo Airport, the plane from New York has come to a halt.

"War turns people into numbers, but we are giving people their names back. Because people are not numbers. Every person's life is important," - said Oleksandra MATVIICHUK, Head of the Center for Civil Liberties, 2022 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate https://t.co/T0YVyy7H9r @avalaina https://t.co/iBIBrzAbzS
The alliance between Putin and Orbán is a sub-issue of the Ukraine war, not to be ignored.

For decades, Denmark was one of the most pro-American countries in the world. All that is gone. Even superpowers need allies. I'm afraid our country will discover that. And Bukele, MBS, Orbán, et al., won't cut it. https://t.co/xFdZkYvoDH
