The hubris of authoritarian states never ceases to amaze. I very much doubt Norway will comply with this, and they very well shouldn't.

It's not hubris, it's showboating for internal politics. Not only will Norway not comply with such a ridiculous request, the ridiculousness of the request is the whole point because "only a true believer could request something so ridiculous".
