Geert Wilders, a far-right leader, won the Dutch national election, causing a shift to the right in Dutch politics. Despite his victory, he plans to stay in the EU but aims to shape it in his image. His success is seen as a potent threat to the EU. The far-right party's attempts to form a cabinet have begun, and there are concerns about the impact on ethnic and religious minorities. The shock election win has worried academics as it could lead to restrictions on international students and climate policies. The EU has been urged to rejoin by Ursula von der Leyen, and there are discussions on the potential impact of Wilders's win on Europe. The media and political analysts have likened his victory to Brexit and Donald Trump's candidacy, indicating a rise in anti-establishment sentiment. Wilders's stance on immigration and opposition to arms supplies to Ukraine are key points in his coalition negotiations.
