07.09.2025 โ‡ข The day the election campaign officially started
โŒจThe day's editorial attention in the Netherlands saw the official launch of the national election campaign, dubbed 'Super Saturday.' Reports detailed CDA leader Henri Bontenbal's positioning as an 'anti-Wilders' figure and the VVD's strategy to distance itself from its governmental track record. Earlier in the day, domestic societal discussions were prominent, with media delving into the 'men's problem' after a recent murder, examining student hazing rituals, and covering humane prison reform. Later, a significant focus emerged on undocumented individuals, including cleaners, who protested against criminalization and emphasized their societal contributions. Concurrently, international scrutiny continued on the Gaza conflict, with researchers observing a nuanced application of 'genocide' compared to Myanmar, and reports of a Russian attack on Kyiv.
