The Ministry of Foreign Affairs conveyed sincere congratulations to new Dutch Prime Minister Rob Jetten, who was formally sworn in Feb. 23 by King Willem-Alexander at the Huis ten Bosch Palace.
The new Netherlands cabinet is a coalition of members from three parties including the Christian Democratic Alliance (CDA), Democrats 66 (D66) and People's Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD).
The MOFA said that Taiwan and the Netherlands share common values of democracy, freedom, respect for human rights and the rule of law. The bicameral legislature known as the States General of the Netherlands passed ten Taiwan-friendly resolutions from 2024 to 2025. In 2024, the Dutch government dispatched naval vessels to the Taiwan Strait for the first time.
The Netherlands is Taiwan’s second largest trade partner in Europe and the largest source of foreign investment into Taiwan. The MOFA pledged to deepen collaboration in industrial supply chains, semiconductors and technological innovation to benefit both sides. (POC-E)
