Dutch PM-elect Jetten says not yet time to talk to Putin
Rob Jetten's 79-page programme pledges continued financial and military aid to Ukraine and legal commitment to NATO's 3.5% defense spending target.
- On Friday, incoming Dutch prime minister Rob Jetten ruled out talks with Russia while unveiling a detailed government programme supporting Ukraine.
- The manifesto frames the fight in Ukraine as about the security of the whole of Europe and pledges ongoing multi-year military and financial support.
- The programme was negotiated after weeks of tough talks with his two centre-right parties, but Jetten will lack a parliamentary majority and need other parties' support.
- Jetten will now form a cabinet aiming to be sworn in by mid-February, becoming the youngest leader and first openly gay prime minister of the Netherlands.
- The incoming Dutch administration pledged to enshrine the NATO defence spending minimum of 3.5 percent in law, as urged by US President Donald Trump.
