Wilders out: How international media reported the fall of the Dutch government

International media report on the fall of the Dutch government, citing political instability and Wilders' strategic withdrawal from the coalition.

International media extensively covered the collapse of the Dutch government led by Prime Minister Schoof, following the PVV's withdrawal from the coalition. The New York Times described the coalition as an 'uncomfortable marriage of convenience,' while Die Zeit highlighted the political impasse ahead of a crucial NATO summit in The Hague.

The BBC noted that the Dutch press was unsurprised by the government's fall, citing ongoing instability. Wilders' decision has plunged the Netherlands into uncertainty, with elections unlikely before October, delaying key decisions on defense spending.
