The opposition withdrew a vote of no confidence following his statement.

Rutte’s resignation marks a changing of the guard in European politics and leaves Viktor Oban as the EU’s longest-standing premier.

The government fell apart when Rutte demanded restrictions on refugee family reunions.

Rutte faced controversies throughout his tenure, including a subsidy scandal and economic challenges.
