The ultra -rightist leader Geert Wilders He announced on Tuesday that his party will leave the coalition of Government of the Netherlands, which means make the Executive fall right. A surprising movement that ends with the fragile right -wing coalition that ruled since last July and that, everything points, will lead to the country, the fifth economy of the euro, to New elections and uncertainty.
In addition, as the Reuters agency points out, everything indicates that the rupture of the Government will also delay the decision on the increase in defense expenditure to reach the goals of the Take and leaves the Executive in functions when he receives the leaders of the Alliance this month in The Hague.
Wilders’s decision, as he said, is due to the rejection of his partners in front of his ideas for stop the reception of refugees. “No signature for our asylum plans. There are no changes in the main framework agreement. PVV leaves the coalition“He has sentenced on social networks.
On Monday, the leader of the Radical Dutch right He already threatened to break the government of coalition if “in a few weeks” I don’t know restricted refugee access to the Netherlands, which includes “closing borders” to asylum applicants and border surveillance with the army. In a sudden press conference collected by EFE, Wilders, who usually communicates through networks, urged to take radical measures against asylum and threatened to leave the cabinet that he shares with three other right -wing formations.
“Our patience is over. The voter who made the PVV the largest party (from the country) has the right to a government. That must give results, without a doubt, in Asylum and Inmigraciónwhich, for my party, is the most important part of the coalition agreement. We won the elections, nobody else, “he said. He also defended that his party already made” enough concessions “when his partners” let him be prime minister “and warned:” If nothing changes, or change very little, we leave. “
A deeply xenophobic policy
Wilders had presented a package of 10 measures in asylum, which summed up: “Close borders for asylum seekers and for family reunification; No more asylum centers, but close those there; Deport the Syrians with temporary permission; And if you come here as a foreigner and causes problems, you leave the country. “
He also intended suspend the application of European Union standards on asylumuse the army to reinforce borders surveillance and expel and withdraw citizenship to those who have dual nationality and commit violent or sexual crimes.
The radical right of the PVV was The game that achieved more seats In the November 2023 elections, with 37 of the 150 seats of the Dutch Parliament, but this result was not enough to govern alone. After months of negotiations, the training reached an agreement with three other rights parties -VVDs, NSC Democristians and BBB farmers -, with the condition that the leaders of the four groups, including Wilders himself, renounced to direct that cabinet.
In July of last year, a government team formed by politicians of the different parties, but led by a career official without political affiliation, took possession, Dick Schoof. Some of the most controversial portfolios, with migration and asylum, were in the hands of the extreme right, which appointed anti -immigration policy Marjolein Faber as minister.
Faber sent two laws to implement “The strictest asylum policy in history” And he proposed to introduce a double status system, which distinguishes between people fleeing because they are in personal danger (due to their origin, sexual orientation or religion) and those who flee from war or natural disasters. The latter would be granted temporary asylum, something that does not exist today. The other proposal seeks to reduce the time of the temporal residence that refugees can obtain from five to three years.
