Political reporter Ron Fresen saw a debate in which the parties mainly let off steam after the failed formation attempt. “This debate did not yield a breakthrough, nor was it expected.” Remkes can now get to work and then it will have to become clear how sharp the shards are between VVD and D66.
“It is not just about yesterday’s speech, but it also bothers Kaag and the left-wing parties that VVD and CDA do not want to go with the left, while according to them there have been no serious negotiations yet.”
