- Following the occupation of Norway in 1940, his mother accepted an invitation from Franklin D. Roosevelt to take refuge in the United States. They would later spend several weeks in the White House and King Harald himself remembers quite clearly standing right behind President Roosevelt when he was sworn in for his fourth term. At the time, the war was still going on, the President was not feeling well, and so, at the insistence of his advisers, he agreed to be inaugurated actually inside the White House.
