janverkade asks:
When will a new Dutch government be sworn in?
Closed Jul 02, 2024 02:00PM UTC
The nationalist Freedom Party (PVV) won the most seats in the Dutch general elections held on 22 November 2023, setting the stage for a potentially difficult path to forming a government (aka cabinet) (Politico, AP, Dutch House of Representatives - Cabinet). After the 2017 election, it took parties a then-record 255 days from the election to form a government, with government formation after the 2021 election taking 299 days (Dutch News, Anadolu Agency). A caretaker government will not count, and whether new elections are called is immaterial.
