Dutch Prime Minister Skips Climate Summit After Amsterdam Violence

Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte announced his decision to skip the COP29 climate summit in Azerbaijan following recent clashes in Amsterdam between Israeli football fans and pro-Palestinian protesters. The violence, linked to a Europa League match, has prompted the government to investigate potential warnings ignored by Israel. While Rutte remains in the Netherlands to address the situation, Dutch Climate Minister Sophie Hermans will attend the summit, and a climate envoy will replace Rutte. Calls for pan-European action against antisemitism were also made during discussions with Israeli officials.
