The Liberal Party and the Christian Democratic Alliance agreed to form a government with the support of the anti-immigrant Freedom Party, creating the Netherlands’ first minority Cabinet since World War II.

The “parties accept each other’s differing opinions” on the characterization of Islam, the parties said in a joint statement. “However, there’s a lot of common ground: making the Netherlands stronger, safer and wealthier is a common goal and starting point.”
