The Norwegian Police Security Service (PST) has scheduled a press conference for Tuesday at 5:00 PM, where the head of PST will provide insights into the protective services offered to Norwegian officials and members of the royal family. This announcement comes following the recent presentation of PST's threat assessment, where discussions around the security of the royal family have been highlighted due to past controversies.

During the press conference, PST plans to address questions regarding its protective services, specifically in light of previous inquiries about potential security threats. Notably, questions arose regarding Crown Princess Mette-Marit’s connections with Jeffrey Epstein and whether those ties pose any risks to royal family security. PST aims to clarify its protocols and the level of risk currently assessed around such associations involving the royal family.

Eirik Veum, a communications advisor with PST, confirmed that the forthcoming press briefing will delve deeper into the protective arrangements and operational effectiveness of the security service. This proactive communication from PST reflects its commitment to ensuring transparency and addressing public concerns regarding the safety of key governmental figures and the royal family, particularly amidst ongoing scrutiny surrounding alleged past interactions with controversial individuals.
