Vooruit no longer wants “waste time with subtext” and therefore no longer wants to negotiate until the trainer Bart De Wever (N-VA) has not put on the table a new socio-economic note and a budgetary table to negotiate, the Flemish socialists announced Thursday evening in a press release.
The presidents of the Arizona coalition met on Thursday noon at the presidency of the Chamber around trainer Bart De Wever for the second time since the municipal elections of October 13. At the N-VA and CD&V, negotiators called for accelerating the tempo of negotiations, but little progress appears to have been made.
On the Vooruit side, we want a new socio-economic note and a new budgetary table on which to negotiate. According to the socialists, the note rejected last summer is on the table again and is even moving away “more and more of a fair balance“.
“Vooruit is willing to make difficult decisions and explain them. Provided that the efforts are justified and the burdens are fairly distributed. Unfortunately, after months of negotiations, this is still not the case“, indicate the socialists. “All energy must now be focused on the budgetary framework within which negotiations can take place. This is the only way to form a new government.”
