Rutte: ‘No agreement yet on Spring Memorandum, wants to give opposition a chance’

After hours of consultation in the night from Thursday to Friday, the leaders of the coalition factions have finished talking about the Spring Memorandum for the time being. At around 2.30 am, Prime Minister Mark Rutte said he “does see a direction”, but for the time being “will consciously stop the talks in order to also give the opposition parties a chance”. Rutte emphasizes that the coalition has not yet reached an agreement in outline.
