Massive profit in time of war?

Norway “should share gigantic gas and oil profits” from Ukraine war, says Polish PM.

Poland’s prime minister has called on Norway to share the huge profits it has been making from oil and gas as a result of the war in Ukraine.

Speaking to a youth forum in Warsaw, Mateusz Morawiecki noted that profits from oil and gas this year for Norway, “a small country of five million [people], will be over €100 billion” higher than in recent years.

“This is not normal, this is not fair” and Norway “should share this excess, gigantic profit”, continued the prime minister. “It is preying – unintentionally of course, because it is not Norway’s fault, this war in Ukraine – but it is indirect preying on what is happening, the war caused by Putin.”
