The US will soon have the world's only triumphal arch whose features were driven by litigation strategy.

At the strong request of the United States Military, and for National Security purposes, I have agreed to convert the magnificent Triumphal Arch, planned since the Civil War Era many years ago, at the Receptive Circle adjoining the Arlington Memorial Bridge, into a top grade Military Complex/Triumphal Arch, to house, store, and have the rapid ability to use large numbers of drones, plus Snipers, on both the roof and plaza areas, and additionally have and hold large quantities of sniper ammunition in storage. There will be no facility like this anywhere in the World. Out of the 59 top cities and Capitals, Washington, D.C., IS THE ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD THAT DOES NOT HAVE A TRIUMPHAL ARCH, but it will now and, by far, the greatest of them all! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

For the proposed Associate Membership of Canada remember that there is an EU-Canada summit scheduled for end of October. This gives Carney, vdL and EU member states about six weeks to define in broad terms how such a status could look like.

The reason we normally negotiate actual treaties is so that we have precise, legally clear, mutually agreed definitions of what compliance (and thus, non-compliance) looks like for both sides. The US makes such determinations based on optics, vibes, and the President's mood.

Presumsjonsprinsippet er et velkjent tolkningsprinsipp. Men hva er dets virkeområde, og hva innebærer det å "så langt som mulig" tolke norske bestemmelser i samsvar med folkeretten? I min nye artikkel "Presumsjonsprinsippet" (TfR nr. 2/2026) prøver jeg å gi noen svar: doi.org/10.18261/tfr...

PRESUMSJONSPRINSIPPET
Stian Øby Johansen, Institutt for offentlig rett, UiO

Sammendrag:
Presumsjonsprinsippet pålegger norske rettsanvendere å tolke norske bestemmelser i samsvar med folkeretten «så langt som mulig». I denne artikkelen foretar jeg en rettsdogmatisk analyse for å avklare presumsjonsprinsippets virkeområde og innhold. Først identifiseres prinsippets karakter og begrunnelse, som utgjør den rettsdogmatiske analysens grunnmur. Videre kartlegges de folkerettslige kravene til nasjonale presumsjonsprinsipp – særlig prinsippet om EØS-konform tolkning. Mot denne bakgrunn fastlegges så presumsjonsprinsippets virkeområde: Hvilke folkerettsregler omfattes, og hvilke bestemmelser i norsk rett er det som «så langt det er mulig» skal tolkes konformt med disse? Konklusjonen er at prinsippets virkeområde omfatter enhver folkerettslig regel, uavhengig av dens kilde, og at alle norske bestemmelser på lovs nivå og lavere skal tolkes folkerettskonformt «så langt det er mulig». Videre analyseres presumsjonsprinsippets innhold. Hovedbudskapet er at prinsippet kun tillater et folkerettsstridig tolkningsresultat dersom bestemmelsens ordlyd eller legalitetsprinsippet står i veien for en folkerettskonform tolkning. Dette har særlig to implikasjoner. For det første en plikt til å se bort fra forarbeidsuttalelser som trekker i retning av en folkerettsstridig tolkning. For det andre en plikt til å fravike tidligere rettspraksis som trekker i retning av en folkerettsstridig tolkning. Avslutningsvis drøfter jeg situasjoner der man må velge mellom flere folkerettskonforme tolkningsalternativer, og presenterer en fremgangsmåte som sikrer korrekt anvendelse av presumsjonsprinsippet ved tolkning av norske bestemmelser.
