Dutch Election 2025: Winners and Losers
The Dutch election has yielded significant results, with Liberal leader Rob Jetten emerging victorious, while left-wing leader Frans Timmermans faced a disappointing outcome. Meanwhile, far-right figurehead Geert Wilders' performance has also been noteworthy.
After two years of political instability, the Dutch election aimed to bring about change. However, the country remains deeply divided, with the top two parties, centrist liberal D66 and the far-right Party for Freedom (PVV), being sworn enemies.
Rob Jetten cast himself as a foil to PVV firebrand Geert Wilders, with Wilders stating he "basically disagrees with everything [Jetten] says."
According to Dutch convention, the largest party will have the first opportunity to form a coalition, with its leader likely to become prime minister. Currently, this position seems to be held by Jetten, as no mainstream party is willing to collaborate with Wilders. However, if coalition talks fail, other parties may attempt to form a government, making the coming weeks unpredictable.
