Reply to comment by Immediate-Attempt-32 in Norway: Thunberg joins Indigenous protests against turbines. The young environmental activist says green energy cannot come at the expense of human rights. A court order has deemed the turbines' location in Norway illegal, as they disrupt Sami reindeer-herding traditions by DoremusJessup

>they have to clean up the mess the last government made (kinda funny nobody mention that detail

The concession to build the park was given in 2010 by NVE. This was during the Stoltenberg goverment(Workersparty/Arbeiderpartiet). So blaming the whole "mess" on "the last goverment" is incorrect. Under the Solberg goverments(Right/Høyre); Building started in 2015 and the park was fully operational in 2020.

The courts came to the verdict 11th of october 2021. The Støre goverment(Workersparty/Arbeiderpartiet) went into power 14th of october 2021. Doubt the Solberg had time to fix anything in the 3 days before transition of power.

So the current goverment is stuck cleaning up the mess made by their own political party in 2010. Not "The last goverment".

"Norgesvassdrags-og energidirektorat(NVE)ga i firevedtak av 7.juni 2010 konsesjon tilfølgendevindkraftanlegg på Fosen". Translated - Norwegian water and energy directorate gave the concession in june 7th 2010.
