Fox News
Dutch leader Geert Wilders lashed out after blaming the Netherlands for the lack of government control after the country accepted Ukrainian refugees.
"Ukrainians are coming to the Netherlands in droves, not because of the war, but for free housing, free care and our jobs," Wilders said in a post on X. "Once again, we are Europe's fool."
Outgoing Prime Minister Mark Rutte said this weekend that Dutch support for Ukraine was guaranteed for the long term, as Wilders would not be able to find any coalition partner willing to support his aim of cutting it.
