Sources tell the NOS that farmer activists and their sympathizers appear to be involved in the disruptions on the railway. These occurred at 35 locations across the country.
It would not surprise Farmer Defence Force (FDF) if farmers were involved in the large-scale sabotage action on Tuesday morning. That is what vice-chairman… says.
On Budget Day (Prinsjesdag), celebrated today in the Netherlands, reports indicate that fires broke out on highways following acts of sabotage targeting railway lines, and there are indications that farmer groups are behind the incidents.
As a result, Prince's Day, which is celebrated every third Tuesday in September, was spoiled. People gather in The Hague to watch the King of the Netherlands arrive at Parliament in a golden carriage and inaugurate the new parliamentary year. People just couldn't get to the city.
It cannot be ruled out that farmers are behind the sabotage actions on the railway tracks on Tuesday morning. This is according to Sieta van Keimpema, secretary of Farmers Defence Force. The national action group is not coordinating any actions. "Regional groups are preparing regional actions," she says.
