Talks on
forming a new Dutch coalition government will centre on Friday on preliminary
discussions between two sessions involving two parties, Wouter Koolmees, the
man charged with assessing the current situation, told reporters on Thursday
evening.
Rob
Jetten, leader of D66, the biggest party in last week’s general election, and
Joost Eerdmans of the far-right JA21, which won nine seats, will first talk
together with Koolmees.
Later,
Dilan Yesilgöz, leader of the right-wing liberal VVD, will meet Koolmees and
new GL-PvdA leader Jesse Klaver to talk about their differences.
“She says
their differences cannot be bridged but it is my job to find out if this really
is the case,” Koolmees said.
Yesilgöz
has said repeatedly she will not take her party into a coalition with the
left-wing green alliance and that she prefers a centre-right option. Jetten,
set to be the future prime minister, has said he prefers a broad coalition
including the VVD, GL-PvdA and the Christian Democrats.
Koolmees
said he wants to get a better idea of the objections the parties have to each
other and find out if these are “real” or perceived differences.
Koolmees
has now met the leaders of all 15 parties which will be represented in
parliament from next week and said there is a unanimous wish for a speedy
cabinet formation process, given the big issues facing the Netherlands.
