Apologies to Afghanistan

Political debate in the Netherlands an embarrassment

Zaterdag 20 februari 2010, door Jan Weijers

In recent weeks the Dutch government and parliament debated the Dutch military presence in Afghanistan. It became an undignified and embarrassing chain of events. Last night the government collapsed as a consequence. What annoyed me is that neither the people of Afghanistan nor the Dutch soldiers there were even mentioned in the past days.
