Europe has changed considerably during the last 10 years. 20 new member states have joined WHO's Regional Office for Europe. These new member states had delegates and representatives appearing in international meetings who were not used to international representation. Such representation had previously been taken care of from Moscow. WHO's office in Europe has a Norwegian, Dr. Jo Asvall, as regional director. His team started a comprehensive plan for the development of health systems in the newly independent states, called the Eurohealth programme. Norway has been very active in this programme. We have supported it in the governing bodies of WHO. We have funded part of the programme, and we have seconded Norwegian doctors to work actively in the Eastern European countries as part of the Eurohealth programme. Armenia and Georgia plus the Aral Sea region have been the prioritised countries. In addition to the Eurohealth programme, Norway has been active in the most neighbouring eastern European countries. The resources have mainly been used in North-West Russia in Archangel and Murmansk. The plan is to increase the funding for work in this region.
在过去十年间，欧洲发生了巨大变化。20个新成员国加入了世界卫生组织欧洲区域办事处。这些新成员国派出的代表和出席国际会议的人员此前并不习惯参与国际事务的代表工作。此前，此类事务一直由莫斯科方面负责处理。世界卫生组织欧洲办事处的区域主任是挪威人乔·阿斯瓦尔博士。他的团队启动了一项针对新独立国家卫生系统发展的全面计划，即欧洲卫生计划。挪威在该计划中一直非常积极。我们在世卫组织的理事机构中支持该计划。我们为该计划的一部分提供了资金，并且借调挪威医生作为欧洲卫生计划的一部分，积极在东欧国家开展工作。亚美尼亚、格鲁吉亚以及咸海地区是重点国家。除了欧洲卫生计划，挪威还在与其接壤的东欧国家积极开展活动。资源主要用于俄罗斯西北部的阿尔汉格尔斯克和摩尔曼斯克。计划是增加对该地区工作的资金投入。
