10,000 Dutch farmers in the #Netherlands, sick of being blamed for the country's nitrogen pollution problem, swarmed the nation's highways with 3,000 tractors - shutting down over 600 miles of highway and causing the biggest traffic jam in the country's history.

Netherlands negotiating to bring back #Dutch female #ISIS members. @nlinkri @MinBZ @NLatUN. Does Netherlands care for justice? If so, they MUST be prosecuted. Or is #NL safe haven for those who support / commit genocide, terrorism, mass rapes and abduction?ad.nl/binnenland/ond…
Neither #NL nor other countries should be fooled by 'innocent wife' stories of female #ISIS. ISIS women among most wretched, evil perpetrators of #ISIS crimes against humanity & genocide. Not only terrorism. Shall they walk free in Europe? #Yezidi #Yazidi

Ongelofelijk dat #Nederlandse inwoners naar Syrie & Iraq afgereisd zijn en #ISIS hebben gesteund, misdaden hebben begaan & nu gewoon terug naar huis kunnen gaan alsof er niets is gebeurd. #NL wij zijn toch beter dan dit?! #oorlogsmisdaden #opsporingverzocht #genocide #Jihadibruid

I have just read this column written by Dutch officials from the Ministry of Finance on Eurozone reform "A more stable EMU does not require a central fiscal capacity" | VOX, CEPR Policy Portal voxeu.org/article/more-s… Here my thoughts... (thread)...
Needless to say that the position of the officials from the Ministry of Finance of the Netherlands is diametrically opposed to what we have written @voxeu voxeu.org/article/beyond… and which emanates from the view of the 22 Spanish experts on the Euro realinstitutoelcano.org/wps/portal/rie…
This debate is of course interesting because it defines broadly the positions of the #Netherlands and #Spain in the debate on Eurozone reform. Remember we had the Eurogroup meeting this week and we will have the definitive Euro summit on the current package of reforms next week
