Excellent news from the Netherlands, where our @RenewEurope party D66 has come out on top in the elections, ahead of the far right. Congratulations to @RobJetten for a fantastic campaign! Another great surprise in this election comes from our other party, the VVD. Congratulations to @DilanYesilgoz. Democratic, liberal, and pro-European forces have won these parliamentary elections.
















It’s now official: the pro-European, centrist and liberal forces have won in the Netherlands. The definitive results confirm it – polarised extremes are shrinking. The strong result of @D66 led by @RobJetten is a powerful boost for progressive, European values. The return to Parliament of @50plus_partij – a centrist party and proud EDP member – is another welcome sign. As European Democrats, we celebrate this momentum. Welcome back, Netherlands, at the helm of the Europe you helped build.





Dutch liberal leader Jetten seeks to increase military spending to 3% GDP and establish the European Army. He urges the creation of the Energy Union to prevent states from buying gas from the enemy. Energy/defence policy should be led by 🇪🇺, not states
