Geert Wilders, an anti-EU far-right populist, secures a significant election victory, winning 37 seats out of 150 for his Freedom Party. Promising to halt immigration and reduce Dutch payments to the EU, Wilders seeks coalition partners for governance. With potential repercussions in the Netherlands and Europe, a coalition with the conservative VVD and centrist NSC party is plausible but challenging. Despite shared goals, none of these parties align entirely on anti-EU sentiments. Wilders’ success follows a similar trend in Slovakia, reflecting a broader European shift towards anti-EU populism.
