Bart De Wever is expected by the King this Monday for an eleventh visit to the Palace, almost 150 days after the elections. On Sunday, the two scenarios were in the air: he continues, he gives up.
In any case, the president of the N-VA will arrive half-empty handed to the King on Monday. The hypothesis of a resignation cannot be ruled out. What signal would the Palace wish to give next in this case? The appointment of a personality from the “center” as mediator (Sammy Mahdi, Maxime Prévot, etc.)? Or give a helping hand to those who have sometimes slowed down or blocked negotiations, Conner Rousseau or Georges-Louis Bouchez? Pure fiction at this point. In the meantime, Bart De Wever is a trainer, and tries to undo the knots. The meeting with the King is set for 11:30 a.m.
