Wilders zapustil koalicijo: bodo šli Nizozemci predčasno na volišča?

"Ni podpisa za naše azilne načrte... PVV zapušča koalicijo," je Wilders danes zapisal na družbenem omrežju X.

Wilders je razočaran zaradi po njegovem mnenju počasnega uvajanja najstrožje politike priseljevanja doslej, o kateri se je dogovoril s koalicijskimi partnerji po presenetljivi zmagi PVV na volitvah novembra 2023.

Z izstopom iz vladajoče koalicije je zagrozil že prejšnji teden. "Naše potrpljenje se je izteklo. Volivci (...) si zaslužijo vlado, ki bo izpolnjevala pričakovanja," je dejal takrat.

Postavil je deset zahtev, ki bi morale biti po njegovem izpolnjene "v nekaj tednih". Pri tem je omenil zaprtje meja za prosilce za azil, strožji nadzor na mejah, ukinitev združevanja družin priseljencev, zapiranje azilnih domov in deportacije tistih z dvojnim državljanstvom, ki so obsojeni zaradi kaznivih dejanj.

Nizozemska vlada je sicer že lani naznanila dogovor o svežnju novih ukrepov na področju priseljevanja in azilne politike. Ta vključuje več Wildersovih zahtev, pa tudi spremembe pri obravnavi beguncev iz Sirije.

PVV ima s 37 poslanci največje število sedežev v 150-članskem nizozemskem parlamentu, vladajoča koalicija, ki se znova sooča z notranjimi trenji, pa brez te stranke zaseda 51 poslanskih mest.

Zadnje javnomnenjske raziskave po navedbah AFP in Politica kažejo, da PVV še vedno beleži najvišjo podporo med nizozemskimi volivci, tesno pa ji sledita desnosredinska Ljudska stranka za svobodo in demokracijo (VVD), ki je prav tako del koalicije, ter opozicijsko zavezništvo zelenih in laburistov.







Wilders has been frustrated with what he saw as the slow pace of introducing the "strictest-ever immigration policy", agreed with coalition partners after his shock election win in November 2023.

"No signature for our asylum plans... PVV leaves the coalition," said Wilders on X, formerly Twitter, referring to his far-right Freedom Party.

The withdrawal opens up a period of political uncertainty in the European Union's fifth-largest economy and major exporter, as far-right parties make gains across the continent.

The latest government crisis also comes just weeks before the Netherlands is due to host world leaders for a NATO summit.

Eighteen months after his surprise election win sent shockwaves through Europe, polls suggest his PVV is still the strongest.

However, the gap to his nearest rivals has narrowed, with the left-wing Green/Left party of former European Commission vice-president Frans Timmermans following close behind.

The liberal VVD party, a traditional powerhouse in Dutch politics, are also running near the top two, meaning any election would likely be closely fought.

In late May, Wilders called an impromptu press conference to announce his "patience was up" with the government of Prime Minister Dick Schoof.

He threatened to torpedo the coalition if a new 10-point plan to crimp immigration were not implemented within a few weeks.

His plan included border closures for asylum seekers, tougher border controls and deporting dual nationals convicted of a crime.

Summarising his demands, he said: "Close the borders for asylum seekers and family reunifications. No more asylum centres opened. Close them."

Political and legal experts criticised the plans as unworkable or illegal, with some suggesting Wilders was creating a crisis to collapse the government.
