JA21, BBB and SGP jointly set demands and put more pressure on the cabinet

JA21, SGP, and BBB have united to negotiate with the minority cabinet regarding the tax plan, advocating for significant changes to the current proposals. They oppose tax increases linked to NATO obligations and demand tax relief, adjustments to nitrogen policies, and stricter asylum measures. This coalition puts additional pressure on the already divided government, as D66 and CDA lean left while VVD prefers right-wing collaboration. The opposition's demands, including those on abortion and surrogacy, complicate the cabinet's goal of broad support in the House of Representatives. Prime Minister Jetten urged parties to focus on the tax plan's content, but the opposition's letter highlights their concerns and demands for substantial changes, increasing pressure on the minority coalition.
