informing them that their assets could be used by the armed forces in a wartime scenario.

🛑 Officials stress:
No impact on daily ownership during peacetime
No immediate confiscation
Purely a readiness and contingency measure
⚔️ Why it matters: Norway’s military says the country is facing its most serious security situation since World War II, driven by: ❄️ Its Arctic border with Russia
