Peace and Justice (Norway)

Peace and Justice (Norwegian: Fred og Rettferdighet) is a pro-Russian fringe political party in Norway, known for promoting messaging that echoes Russian disinformation narratives on the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Since its founding in 2023, the party has come under intense scrutiny for its funding ties to Atle Berge, who financed the party’s high-profile 2025 pro-Russian election campaign that attacked Norwegian support for Ukraine. One of the party's main candidates and the figurehead of the election campaign, Glenn Diesen, has been criticized for promoting Russian propaganda for several years. The party has been described as a Russian proxy in hybrid warfare, with rhetoric, actions, and funding aligning with Russian disinformation strategies to undermine trust, destabilize institutions, and reduce support for Ukraine.
