Quick Glance: Geert Wilders lacks coalition support to become Dutch prime minister
  • Geert Wilders, despite his election success, lacks enough coalition support to become the next Dutch prime minister.

  • There is now likely to be a technical Cabinet of experts as Wilders will not lead the government but remain the driving force behind the administration.

  • The exact contours of a new coalition Cabinet are unclear, but negotiator Kim Putters believes the parties are ready to hammer out a deal.

  • The Netherlands could look to Italy as a model for moving past its political stalemate by resorting to a 'technical' government before fresh elections are held.
