"Netherlands in Turmoil: Wilders' Coalition Negotiator Resigns Amid Far-Right Shift Fears"

Geert Wilders, leader of the conservative Dutch PVV party, appointed Gom van Strien as a 'scout' to hold talks with party leaders for potential coalition negotiations. However, van Strien resigned on his first day following allegations of fraud. Wilders has a replacement in mind and hopes to announce a new 'scout' soon. Forming a government may be challenging for Wilders, as he needs the support of other parties, including the VVD, which has ruled out serving in a Wilders-led Cabinet but may consider lending outside support.
