Gert Wilders wins Dutch election, poised to become Prime Minister

Gert Wilders, leader of the far-right PVV party, has emerged as the winner of the Dutch election, securing a lead over the ruling party. This shift to the right in Dutch politics is seen as part of a broader trend across Europe. Despite previous opposition and being kept out of government, Wilders is now in a position to potentially lead a government coalition. The election results have both bolstered similar right-wing movements in other EU countries and raised concerns about the future of EU integration with a potential EU skeptic leader in the Netherlands.
