A rare Dutch minority coalition is forming, signaling a strategic shift in governance after party leaders reached a deal.
The new government brings together D66, the CDA, and VVD, collectively holding 66 of 150 seats in the lower house, well short of a majority.
Rob Jetten of D66 is poised to become prime minister, potentially the youngest in Dutch history, signaling a new generation at the helm.
The coalition lacks a Senate majority, meaning it must seek cross-party support to pass key legislation.
A formal coalition pact is expected to be confirmed by party MPs, with a high-profile presentation outlining priorities this Friday.
Jetten framed the deal as a counter to populism, stressing a positive national vision as central to the campaign.
The agreement follows D66's narrow October win over Geert Wilders' PVV, marking a pivotal turn in a fractured political landscape.
The coalition plans center on housing, migration control, defense investment, and prudent public finances to avoid passing debt to future generations.
GroenLinks-PvdA, while open to case-by-case cooperation, remains the largest opposition group and could influence policy on environmental and housing reforms.
The three-party coalition excludes the PVV and JA21, reflecting a deliberate choice to avoid far-right inclusion despite ongoing shifts in the right-wing spectrum.
The cabinet is expected to be sworn in by mid-February, after which it will navigate a fragmented parliament to pass key laws.
