In 2006, Norwegian firms imported Israeli goods worth NOK 650 million.
This is an increase by NOK 80 million, or 15 per cent from the year before, the strongest increase in many years.
This is shown by figures from Statistics Norway (SSB).
SV party secretary Edle Daasvand, who has led the campaign, says to the newspaper Vaart Land that it is not pleasant for the party to note that the import from Israel is increasing.
