The Russian president confirms Russia left all oil and gas plants in Norway -
- in accordance with the peace treaty signed with the EU.
Jesper Berg appears confident he has a parliamentary majority -
- to become prime minister until the next general election.
Norway has been without a government since the killing of PM Anita Rygh.
- He can't govern Norway again. - Why not?
He's just going to make the same mistake again.
Aren't things different now that the EU is going to defend Norwegian sovereignty?
Sure, so long as Norway delivers oil and gas to the EU.
That's in direct opposition to Jesper Berg's agenda.
The problems started when Berg stopped oil production.
As you surely understand -
- parliament wants you to form a new government.
But there are some things we have to clear up first.
- Jesper. - Rudi?
Jesper and I, we go way back.
As young men, we were both engaged in preserving nature, weren't we?
Now you're just engaged in preserving the Union.
I invited Mr. Teichmann here today because the Union is concerned -
- you might want to renegotiate the terms of the peace treaty.
That treaty was signed when the country was without a legitimate government.
Well, whatever the circumstances -
- the conditions of Russia's withdrawal -
- were that Norway would maintain our oil and gas supplies -
- and that production would be restarted immediately.
Jesper...
I hope you're OK with that?
Of course.
Great. Then I look forward to seeing you back in office.
I have another demand, Jesper.
That you make the vice president your secretary of state.
She knows everything about the peace treaty.
Grete Sundby?
Weren't you the country's youngest chief of police?
Yes, I was.
Great. She can keep an eye on me, then.
OCCUPIED
MARCH
Why am I being recalled as ambassador to Norway?
Miss Sidorova, these are the president's orders.
The contacts I have here could be more useful than ever.
I'm the most popular Russian in Norway.
To the Norwegians, you've become the face of the occupation.
Does this have anything to do with my private life?
No, it doesn't.
I'd really like to hear the truth.
We just want you to come home.
Good.
She has a lot of potential. Before long, she'll be one of my best students.
Play something for me.
- What's wrong? - Things aren't going as planned.
We're going to live much better than we do here.
Yeah, but we wanted to raise our child here, not Moscow.
Do you want to hide the truth your whole life?
You're so naive.
You didn't keep your word, Ira. You lied to me.
How did you think we were going to get by?
How were we going to raise a child? I have nothing here.
And they're offering me a post at UNESCO.
You're the one who's naive.
They'll never accept that you have a relationship with a woman.
MELKØYA GAS INSTALLATION
Nice edits, but I can't say this.
- What's the problem? - The whole talk.
It seems like I'm celebrating the oil and gas revival.
OK. Cross out everything about oil and gas -
- and just focus on us being free from the Russians.
- What's the CEO's name? - Harald Aasbakk.
Can we ask him to come here?
Yeah, but it's too late to back out now.
Do you know what the prime minister said to me?
He didn't think it was possible to start gas production -
- just two weeks after the Russians withdrew.
But we managed, didn't we, thanks to you all -
- bringing the plant online in record time.
Now we can wake the dragon from his short nap.
Control room, let's go.
The capacity of this single gas plant -
- can heat 3.3 million German households a year.
We're going to be Europe's most important energy supplier -
for the foreseeable future!
We'll show them we can do at least as well as we did under Russian leadership.
Come on!
Get in the car!
Drive!
56 confirmed dead and many critically injured -
- after a powerful explosion at the Melkøya plant at noon today.
The explosion occurred a short time after gas production was restarted.
Operations had been stopped in the twelve days -
- since the Russians handed control back to Norwegian authorities.
How many is it?
Many of the victims are Norwegian workers and journalists -
- gathered for the reopening of the plant.
CEO Harald Aasbakk is among the victims.
Aasbakk was giving an inaugural speech when the explosion occurred.
The prime minister was also there for the ceremony.
Reporter Atle Isakstuen is outside Hammerfest hospital -
- a few kilometers from the scene of the accident.
Do you know anything about the cause of the explosion?
The explosion was likely due to a leak in a propane facility.
Prime Minister Jesper Berg, you were there for the opening.
Can you tell us more about the cause of this leak?
No, I'm just thinking about all the people who didn't make it out.
All the people coming here with horrific injuries.
Investigations will show whether someone sabotaged the plant.
Are you thinking of someone in particular?
We know the software didn't behave as expected.
The Russians installed the software before they left the country.
We may need to stop all production on the Norwegian continental shelf -
- until we have replaced all the Russian software.
What do you say to Berg's accusation that Russia was behind the explosion?
Those are accusations he has failed to back up with the facts.
There is no truth to them. Quite frankly, I hope and expect -
- that EU will show more respect for evidence than Mr. Berg.
If not, the entire peace treaty will be jeopardized.
Miss Sidorova, the car is waiting.
What does this mean for Russia's relationship with the EU?
Russia is not a terrorist state. I refuse to answer those insinuations.
- Why are we using the back door? - This isn't about you, Ljuba.
The Russian government extends our condolences to the victims' families.
This tragic accident occurred after the Norwegians restarted gas production.
Please. Not now. There are photographers everywhere.
Yeah, and we'll have to hide in Moscow, too.
The Russian press attaché just released a statement -
- strongly denying that Russia was involved in the explosion.
Please, close the window.
Hey, the explosion was not an accident.
I believe the Russian government is responsible.
Drive!
Do you have evidence to back these beliefs?
You have no idea what you've done!
I know that I'm not going back.
I'm sorry. It was a slip-up.
Please, it was just a slip-up.
You need to distance yourself from her. We'll take care of her.
Stop the car when you can.
And turn off your phone for a couple hours, please.
Get ready.
Russia has blood on its hands.
Berg blames Russian software for the explosion.
He avoided me at the party. You know why. I should have never...
Shut it, you Russian fuck! What are you babbling about?
- Can I get my phone back? - Shut up.
Are you going to blow up the train?
I really need that. Please!
Speak Norwegian, you cunt.
Can somebody help me? Hey, stop!
Filthy Russians! They should have the sense to leave.
They can go to hell.
When I ask if you guys in Justice have access to all Russians in Norway -
- with names, addresses, and contact info...
We get that from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, or Rolf.
Sorry, what's the purpose of such a registry?
The purpose is to have an overview.
To inform them of their rights, among other things.
If we call it a registry, that violates the peace treaty.
It violates the peace treaty parliament signed with the EU -
- to get them out. We're talking about protecting them.
THE MINISTRY OF JUSTICE
What does the prime minister think of his new secretary of state?
Sundby? She seems nice.
Not as hot as Anita Rygh, though.
Hello?
Hello, Mrs. Djupvik. This is Irina Sidorova.
I need your advice as a lawyer.
My girlfriend and me were asked to present ourselves at the police station -
- regarding her statement to the press about the explosion.
I see.
So I was going to ask if you think I should bring a lawyer.
Irina, if I continue this conversation, I could be charged with misconduct.
I understand, but there is no one I can trust but you.
OK, but if you're worried, you should bring an immigration attorney.
- I see. - Good luck.
What did she say?
They're going to arrest us -
- force us to testify against Russia, and throw us out of the country.
Forgive me! I can say I was lying.
It's better that I accept responsibility -
- and you go to the Sorokin family in Germany.
But what if they send you to Moscow? What will we do then?
- Do you want a glass of water? - Uh-huh.
- Yes? - I need help.
Take her to Gardermoen. It will be fine.
Die! You betrayed the fatherland!
Police! Stop!
MOSCOW
- Where are we going? - Voyevoda Palace.
Again?
Maja...
Konstantin? Hi.
Do you remember me? From Norway?
Miss Norum? What are you doing here in Moscow?
I live here. Yeah.
I'm here with my daughter Maja. Do you want to...
- You can join us if you'd like. - OK.
The new government is very anti-Russian.
The business sector is doing poorly, so I decided to try my luck here instead.
Forget it, Bente. No foreigner has ever made it here.
I'm just taking one day at a time.
This place is amazing. Nikolaj talked so much about it.
