A potential crisis in the Dutch cabinet was averted after the resignation of NSC Secretary Achahbar over alleged racist remarks during a recent ministerial meeting. Following a tense day of discussions led by Prime Minister Schoof with coalition leaders, it was confirmed that other NSC ministers will remain in their positions. Achahbar’s departure stemmed from discontent regarding how colleagues addressed her concerns about language used in the aftermath of violence related to a football match. Statements are anticipated from both Achahbar and Prime Minister Schoof later tonight.
