Dutch far-right leader Geert Wilders has long been one of Europe’s most polarizing figures. From calling Moroccans “scum” to demanding a ban on mosques and the Quran, Wilders has built his political career on fierce anti-Islam rhetoric. But who is the man behind the controversies? Why does he command such influence — and fear — in the Netherlands and beyond? This video unpacks Wilders’ rise, his inflammatory speeches, the fallout from his policies, and how he just triggered a political earthquake in Dutch politics.

Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof has resigned after far-right leader Geert Wilders pulled his PVV party from the ruling coalition, collapsing the fragile government just 11 months into power. Wilders quit over rejected proposals to deport refugees, shut shelters, and seal borders—measures legal experts say violate human rights laws. Coalition allies slammed him for prioritizing ego over unity. New elections are expected in October, as the Netherlands enters a political limbo amid growing tensions over immigration and national identity.

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has said he is confident NATO allies will commit to Donald Trump’s bold demand of raising defence spending to 5% of GDP. Speaking after a high-stakes meeting in Brussels, Hegseth noted there was near-consensus among member states, with many already surpassing the 2% benchmark. The final commitment is expected during the Hague summit later this month. NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte also supported a split plan—3.5% for hard military power and 1.5% for broader security needs—calling it a historic turning point in alliance capability.

In a dramatic diplomatic shift, the US is reportedly blocking Ukrainian President Zelensky from attending next month’s NATO summit in The Hague. Media reports suggest Ukraine’s membership bid is off the agenda to avoid friction with President Trump, who has ruled out NATO accession for Kiev. While Ukraine may attend minor sessions, it will be sidelined from top-level talks. Meanwhile, only a few non-member nations like Japan and Australia are invited. NATO’s message is clear — Ukraine may be an ally, but not a member, at least not any time soon.

Despite being held at the International Criminal Court in The Hague on charges related to his controversial war on drugs, former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has won a stunning landslide victory in the Davao City mayoral race. Jubilant supporters flooded the streets of Davao, chanting his name, waving flags, and setting off fireworks to celebrate the unexpected triumph. Duterte's win—garnering over 660,000 votes—cements his family's political dominance, with multiple relatives also securing key posts. The victory sends a powerful message of enduring populist loyalty, even as international legal proceedings loom.

In a stunning political twist, ex-President Rodrigo Duterte has been elected mayor of Davao City with over 662,000 votes—despite being jailed in The Hague over his brutal war on drugs. The crowd erupted as the ICC detainee was proclaimed victor, defeating Karlo Nograles in a landslide. Duterte’s return cements his family’s grip on power, with sons, grandsons, and allies sweeping key positions. But as he faces charges of crimes against humanity, the question remains: Can a man rule from a jail cell—and what does this mean for the Marcos-Duterte power feud?
