Local reported that Norway's sovereign wealth fund may be permitted to invest in companies producing nuclear weapons. The fund currently excludes 14 such firms, including Airbus and Lockheed Martin.","A commission recommended allowing investments in nuclear arms makers based in NPT-defined nuclear-weapon states allied with Norway. This would permit investments in British, French, and American manufacturers.","The commission also suggested changes to the Ethics Council, removing its ability to directly recommend exclusions. The Norwegian government cited national security concerns and the paradox of excluding companies vital to Norway's defence."],"centre":["The centre-rated reports from Reuters, bworldonline.com, and WTVB focused on the commission's conclusion that Norway should permit its sovereign wealth fund to invest in major Western defence groups. These reports stated the fund's value at $2.3 trillion and noted that these groups are currently banned due to their involvement in nuclear arms production. WTVB also mentioned that the overhaul of ethical rules comes in response to a state-appointed commission's findings and follows a year after the fund paused divestments."],"right":["The right-rated reports from Reformatorisch Dagblad, Handelsblatt, Aftenposten, ARY News, and Free Malaysia Today News indicated that experts want to loosen ethics rules for Norway's sovereign funds. They reported that the fund, valued at $2.3 trillion according to Handelsblatt, may once again be allowed to invest in companies producing nuclear weapons. Handelsblatt noted that the revision of fund guidelines follows controversy with the Trump administration. ARY News and Free Malaysia Today News specifically mentioned that the Donald Trump administration had protested the fund's divestment from Caterpillar shares over the use of bulldozers in Gaza and the West Bank."],"comparison":""},"blindspot":{"status":"provisional","underrepresentedSide":"left","note":"Coverage is not closed; this is a provisional gap, not a settled blindspot
