🖊🗞OPINION | The Netherlands Colonizes the Antilles for Venezuelan Oil
Dutch historian and writer Marjolein van Pagee takes stock of the Dutch role in the Caribbean, arguing that “the Dutch neutrality claim is a farce.” The Netherlands maintains U.S. Forward Operating Locations in Curaçao and Aruba, just kilometers from Venezuela. In 2019, these bases were used during an infiltration attempt presented as “humanitarian aid.”
Meanwhile, Dutch PM Dick Schoof announced the permanent closure of Aruba’s old Lago refinery, framing it as a step toward sustainability even as the islands remain strategic to U.S.-Dutch military cooperation.

🇳🇱#Netherlands: A firework bomb was thrown through the mail slot of D66’s headquarters in The Hague yesterday, causing an explosion during a meeting of the youth wing of the progressive liberal party.
A 37-year-old man was arrested following the incident, but Dutch police have not released any further details.
The same headquarters were also targeted in September last year during a right-wing rally, when alleged football hooligans smashed the building’s windows and set fire to a police car near the offices.

Leiden, #Netherlands
In terms of the number of canals, Leiden in the Netherlands is second only to Amsterdam. There are 28 km of "waterways" here. A boat trip is a must–have entertainment for tourists, because many of the canals are like full-flowing rivers. The city's largest canal is the Rapenburg
Netherlands, Marken Island 🇳🇱
Closer to the western shore of the Markermeer lake in the Netherlands lies the picturesque island of Marken.
Its population is only about 2000 people, but these are individuals who live here permanently; few locals leave the island for good. And how could one leave such a magical place, where a fairytale atmosphere reigns in a genuine fishing village, where wooden houses on stilts look like they've come straight out of pictures, and where there are practically no cars to disturb the local museum-like authenticity. 🏡

Summer Nights in Utrecht!
Utrecht is one of the loveliest and coziest cities in the Netherlands. 🌆
Unlike the canals in Amsterdam, Utrecht's canals have two levels, and their quays are connected to adjacent houses by passageways. These houses used to serve as warehouses, and goods were transferred directly from barges to the storerooms. Now, these upper levels have been transformed into terraces and cafes. ☕🍽️
