The Maldivian Democratic Party Congratulates Prime Minister Mark Rutte

16 March, Male: The Maldivian Democratic Party Congratulates Prime Minister Mark Rutte for his clear victory in yesterday’s elections.

MDP is heartened to see that the people of Netherlands have recognised Prime Minister Rutte’s commitment to free and tolerant societies. The Dutch people have shown they value and respect the rights and freedoms of all their countrymen equally.

The MDP hopes this is a harbinger of upcoming elections in the European Union, and is encouraged to see that PM Rutte’s victory is a triumph over the politics of fear and hate- mongering, and bashing of Muslims and other groups in Dutch society.

The MDP wishes PM Mark Rutte the very best in his next term.
