As of October 2023, a large majority of Norwegians think that Norway's membership in the military alliance NATO strengthens the country's security. More than 80 percent of respondents had this opinion. In the Norwegian parliament, only the two left-wing parties - the Socialist Left Party and the Red Party - are of the opinion that Norway should leave the military alliance. The Scandinavian country has been a NATO member since the alliance was founded in 1949.
Do you think Norway membership of the military alliance NATO strengthens or weakens the country's security?
The original question was framed as follows: "Mener du at Norges medlemskap i forsvarsalliansen NATO bidrar til å trygge landet mot en fremmed makt, at vårt medlemskap i NATO øker faren for angrep,
eller mener du at NATO medlemskap ikke spiller noen rolle i så måte?"
