The Norwegian state has used civilians, such as Frode Berg and Atle Berge, in sensitive operations and denied responsibility when things went wrong.
verified
While the claim about Frode Berg has been widely reported and investigated, the specific claim of the state denying responsibility requires further evidence beyond the assertion.

IPI's chairman in 2016, Jean Todt, had contact with Jeffrey Epstein according to Epstein's documents.

Jonas Gahr Støre vil lede landet i fire nye år etter et rødgrønt valgseier.

Søkeresultatene inneholder ingen direkte bekreftelse på at Støre faktisk vil lede landet i fire nye år.
