Jetten Promises to Be More Careful with Words After 'Slap in the Face' Remark
Dutch Prime Minister Rob Jetten apologized for a remark made at his D66 party congress, where he stated that organizations attacking minority rights would be "slapped in the face." Following backlash from figures such as BBB leader Henk Vermeer, who argued against using violence to combat violence, Jetten clarified on Monday that the comment was a "slip of the tongue." He emphasized that his intention was not to incite violence but to passionately advocate for equal rights for everyone. Jetten explained that he gave a spontaneous answer to a spontaneous question and promised to be more careful with his wording in the future.
