Third Rutte cabinet most likely after March Dutch parliamentary election

"This is difficult to predict at the moment. But going by current polls, a coalition that does not include the PVV will need to have, at least, five parties. There could be a centrist coalition including VVD, D66, CDA, PvdA and a smaller party. Or a center-right coalition: VVD, D66, CDA, 50Plus and a smaller Christian party," Rem Korteweg, senior research fellow at the Centre for European Reform, told Sputnik, adding that any coalition formed after the election could be quite unstable and the Dutch may be asked to go to the ballot box again soon...."But so could a fringe party like ‘50Plus’, which is a special interest party targeting those aged ‘50 and over’ and is doing exceptionally well in the polls," Korteweg added.
