Possibly. At the very least, this story proves that the people do value a stable supply of butter. Norway is not in the EU, so why would they make themselves economically dependent on Sweden for everyday commodities?

Yes. It also proves that the import restrictions threaten that stability.

To keep the stable supply that they are unable to maintain on their own, as this story shows. And why would they be dependent on Sweden? Would other countries refuse to export to Norway?
