Dutch far-right leader Geert Wilders has announced his PVV party is leaving the governing coalition, toppling the right-wing government.
Wilders said his coalition partners were not willing to embrace his ideas of halting asylum migration, for which he had demanded immediate support last week.
“No signature under our asylum plans. The PVV leaves the coalition,” Wilders said in a post on social media platform X.
Wilders said he had informed Prime Minister Dick Schoof that all ministers from his PVV party would quit the government.
The government crisis comes just three weeks before the Netherlands is scheduled to host a summit of NATO leaders in The Hague.

Dilan Yesilgöz, the head of the right-wing People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy, mentioned prior to Tuesday’s assembly that Schoof encouraged the leaders to behave responsibly.

“The prime minister who appealed to us this morning said that we are facing enormous international challenges, we have a war on our continent, an economic crisis may be coming our way,” Yesilgöz told reporters in parliament.

Wilders last week demanded coalition partners sign on to a 10-point plan that aims to radically slash migration, including using the army to guard land borders and turning away all asylum-seekers.
Anti-Muslim populist Wilders won the most recent election in the Netherlands, but recent polls have shown he has lost support since joining government.
Recent polls put his party roughly at par with the Labour/Green combination that is the second-largest in parliament.
