In the Netherlands, the newly formed centrist party NSC, led by Omtzigt, has withdrawn from coalition government talks after securing 20 out of 150 seats in its debut election, citing differences on budget and financial concerns, including a debt-to-GDP ratio of less than 50%, as the main reasons. This has cast doubt on Geert Wilders' prospects of becoming Prime Minister, as his party, along with VVD and BBB, continues negotiations. The impasse raises the possibility of new elections, with concerns over public finances and unrealizable promises being at the forefront of the political debate.
