Episode Did Anti-Islam Rhetoric Help Far-Right Geert Wilders Become Dutch PM-Probable? | Geeta's World, Ep 70

0:00 44:51

Geert Wilders, an anti-Islam populist, won a significant victory in the Dutch election with his Party for Freedom (PVV) emerging as the single largest party with 37 seats in the 150-menber lower house. Despite the win, he lacks a majority and he says that he must negotiate with other parties to reach the required 76 seats. But several parties such as the Labor-Green alliance have rejected collaboration opposing his anti-migration and euro-sceptic stance. So, how much of a compromise is he willing to make? And did toning down his hardline Islamophobic rhetoric contribute to his victory? Listen in! Produced by Anna Priyadarshini Sound Mix by Kapil Dev Singh
