Brussels: Europe and the Arabs
Weeks after the far-right victory in the Netherlands in the elections, and the Freedom Party led by Geert Wilders became the largest party within the legislative institution, the leaders of the Belgian Vlaams Plange party expect to repeat the achievement and achieve victory in preparation for the formation of a government led by the far-right, which the other parties refuse to cooperate with for fear of the separatist tendency that is controlling the country. A large number of party members dream of independence for the Flemish-speaking half of the country and always call for preference for the Flemish population. This is an indicator that some see as a step on the path to change in Europe after the success of the extreme right in gaining power in other countries such as Hungary, Austria and others. These are parties that oppose the European unitary project and raise concern. Federal institutions in Brussels
In an open letter published by a newspaper in De Zondag, the head of the Vlaams Belang party, Tom van Greken, addressed all the Flemish people and called on them to vote en masse for his party in this year's elections. He said: "The regime's parties are all isolated from the world and have no idea what is happening among the population." “2024 will be a critical year: that is when we will make real change.” Referring to the elections next May
Addressing the Citizen in the open letter, Van Greken stated that the legacy of both the Flemish and federal governments was “absolutely disastrous.” “You work hard, you pay almost the highest taxes in all of Europe, but what do you get in return? Weak politicians who belittle your problems and only care about themselves. They refuse to respect the will of the people and do not take firm decisions to make Flanders a livable and prosperous country again.” “.
“Only if there are enough seats can we make a difference.”
According to the party leader, Vlaams Belang must take action to change this. “Vlaams Belang has prepared strongly in recent years and is ready to put its affairs in order.” Van Greeken warns that Vlaams Belang must become the largest party in order to realize its plans. “Only if there are enough seats will we be able to make a difference,” he concludes. “Together we strive to achieve something different and better.”
