Yeşilgöz received a standing ovation from her party members at the party congress. There was also the same applause for Mark Rutte, whom she thanked in her speech. “The Netherlands owes you so much,” she said. “In times of crisis, Rutte was always there, day and night, always.”
Migration was an important topic of the speech. Yeşilgöz says that ‘watery compromises’ have been made for years and that things cannot continue like this. The previous government fell on the migration issue, according to her to prevent such a compromise from happening again.
No fewer than six political parties are holding their congress this weekend. In addition to the VVD, these are the CDA, BBB, Party for the Animals, SP and Volt. They meet to determine their election manifesto and electoral list. And all those parties face their own problems and challenges as the elections quickly approach. We have listed them in this article.
“We cannot continue to muddle through with migration, we are a party that takes responsibility.” The VVD has always campaigned for what it calls ‘real refugees’. “I always want to keep room open for that.” The influx must be reduced and a distinction must be made for asylum seekers who flee because of, among other things, their political views, identity or faith.
War refugees can be temporarily accommodated, but as soon as the situation allows, they must return to their mother country, according to the VVD party leader. In this way, she also wants to maintain support in society for the reception of asylum seekers.
Yeşilgöz said that politicians have been too preoccupied with themselves in recent years. “Let’s leave the old politics behind us.” The VVD leader calls the fact that many Dutch people find it difficult to make ends meet ‘unacceptable’.
