    • 個人日誌

Jens Stoltenberg is the Secretary General of NATO and a former Prime Minister of Norway.
Although he was born into a political family in Norway, he grew up thinking he would become a statistician, before turning to a career in politics.
He served as the Prime Minister of Norway twice. During his second term, Norway experienced one of the darkest days in its recent history, when 77 people were murdered in a bomb attack in Oslo and a mass shooting on a nearby island.
Before becoming the Secretary General of NATO, a post he has held since 2014, he spent time as a UN Special Envoy on climate change. His term in office as Secretary-General has been extended until September 2022.
