The Scandinavian Police Emergency Response Units will in future cooperate closer in order to coordinate the fight against terrorism and in other national emergencies.
This week the emergency response units from Denmark, Finland and Sweden arrived in Norway to carry out exercises with Norwegian colleagues.
Norway is hosting and facilitating the exercises, which are carried out in accordance with the EU network for police emergency units.
Maarie Jarnerus, Head of the Swedish Emergency Response Unit (Nationella Innsatsstyrken) is very pleased with the cooperation.
- The day we face an emergency, we need help. It does not take long (to move units) from Finland or Norway to Sweden, if something should happen here, she said.
