The Netherlands has formed a new right-wing coalition government led by the far-right Party for Freedom (PVV) and its leader Geert Wilders. The coalition, which took six months of negotiations to form, includes four parties and plans to implement significant policy changes. Key initiatives include moving the Dutch embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, reducing migration, and opting out of EU asylum rules. The government also aims to cut environmental measures, increase offshore gas extraction, and build four new nuclear reactors. Financial and military support for Ukraine will continue, and the defense budget will be legally enshrined at 2% of GDP. Additionally, the coalition plans to increase the gambling tax to 37.8%, reduce the climate fund budget by €1.2 billion, and enforce mass deportations.
