Update-1 below ... Freedom Tax to fund Ukraine's defense

The new generation not burdened by any knowledge of history, nor a radical vision to repeat past mistakes. The people will suffer and pay the bill ... damn.

Young ... the same Old with much enthusiasm ... living the American 🇺🇸 nightmare.

The Hague (AFP) - Incoming Dutch prime minister Rob Jetten on Friday ruled out talks with Russia over the war in Ukraine, as he unveiled a new government programme including firm support for Ukraine.

Jetten will be the youngest PM in Dutch history

Speaking to AFP after publishing his governing manifesto, the 38-year-old said he would not speak to Moscow as there were currently "no indications" Russia wanted to end the war in Ukraine.

"And as long as the aggression continues, we will continue our support for the Ukrainian people," he said.

The 79-page manifesto, hammered out after weeks of tough talks between Jetten and his two coalition partners, pledged no let-up in Dutch support for Kyiv.

"The fight in Ukraine is about the security of the whole of Europe," said the document entitled "Getting to Work".


Happy new coalition: Freedom Tax for all
