Europe is about guaranteeing Netherlands safety: Dutch PM ahead of elections

NL Times  

In the run-up to the European Parliament elections next week, Prime Minister Mark Rutte is talking about his vision for Europe. On Tuesday Rutte called FvD leader Thierry Baudet an 'attic room scholar' who is taking "irresponsible risks with our safety, our stability, and our prosperity" with his positive position on the Netherlands leaving the EU. The VVD leader therefore wants to debate the FvD leader before the European Parliament elections next week. The Prime Minister also talked about the years-long impasse in the European Union on the redistribution of asylum seekers.
