Norwegian government holds

jensNorway’s left-leaning government coalition has won the country’s general election by a narrow margin.

The coalition, led by the Labour Party, is widely felt to have handled the current recession well – as can be seen from Norway’s impressively low unemployment rate and its forecasted economic growth in 2010.

The victory makes Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg’s government the first to survive re-election in 16 years.

The Labour, Centre Green and Socialist coalition secured 86 seats in parliament – just one more than the minimum needed for a majority, EuroNews reports.
