Eelco Eerenberg, left, Rob Jetten, center, and Eelco Heinen arrive for a debate session on the 2027 tax plan at the House of Representatives in The Hague, on Nov. 12.
Dutch Prime Minister Rob Jetten will meet with his coalition partners Friday morning in a bid to save his minority alliance and avoid a potential snap election.
Jetten’s center-left D66 party, along with coalition member Christian Democrats, teamed up with two left-wing groups to pass a progressive bill late Thursday that will shift the tax burden onto the wealthy. The third coalition member, the conservative People’s Party, accused the parties of breaking their coalition agreement and has threatened to quit the three-party alliance.
