00:00 The leader of the Freedom Party or PVV in the Netherlands, Geert Wilders, has made some

00:08 controversial statements.

00:10 In an unverified video that has surfaced recently, Wilders is heard urging Muslims who prioritize

00:16 the Quran over the secular laws of the country to leave.

00:20 He said, "I have a message for all the Muslims in the Netherlands who do not respect our

00:25 freedom, our democracy and our core values, who find the rules of the Quran more important

00:31 than our secular laws."

00:32 Wilders, who is likely to become the next Prime Minister of the Netherlands, claims

00:41 that there are a significant number of Muslims.

00:44 He cited research by Professor Koompanz, who allegedly prioritized Islam rules over the

00:49 laws of the land.

00:51 Despite his party winning the most seats in the recent election, the PVV is projected

00:56 to hold only 25% of seats in the Dutch parliament, prompting Wilders to express his willingness

01:03 to adjust his positions for coalition talks.

01:06 His tweet read, "Today, tomorrow or the day after, the PVV will be part of the government

01:11 and I will be Prime Minister of this beautiful country."

01:14 However, forming a government may prove challenging for Wilders, as the conservative BVD party

01:21 under new leader Dylan Yesil Gyoz has not ruled out supporting a PVV-led government

01:27 from the outside.

01:28 However, the BVD has ruled out cabinet participation.

01:32 Meanwhile, Peter Omtzigt from the centrist NSC party sees challenges in aligning with

01:38 Wilders due to his extreme views, which might conflict with the Dutch constitution's religious

01:43 freedom protections.

01:45 Omtzigt said, "We must carefully consider our values and the principles that our constitution

01:51 upholds."

01:57 Coalition talks in the Netherlands are known to be prolonged, with shifting positions on

02:01 party cooperation.

02:02 According to reports, if Wilders fails to form a government, more centrist alliances

02:07 excluding the PVV could emerge, with new elections being a last resort.
