Hanke Bruins Slot is set to become the Netherlands’ new foreign minister
Hanke Bruins Slot, a veteran who served with the Dutch military in Afghanistan, is to become the Netherlands’ new foreign minister. She will replace Wopke Hoekstra, who is in line to become a European Union commissioner.
Bruins Slot has been interior minister in the caretaker administration of outgoing Prime Minister Mark Rutte that will remain in power until a new coalition is formed after a general election on Nov. 22. Polls suggest her party will suffer a heavy defeat in the election. Her Christian Democrat Appeal party put her forward Monday and the appointment was expected to be confirmed later in the day.“As an Afghanistan veteran and the secretary of state in charge of intelligence and security, Hanke is more than qualified to make this move to the Foreign Ministry,” Christian Democrat leader Henri Bontenbal said in a statement.Hoekstra quit after the government nominated him to take up the Netherlands’ seat on the EU’s executive commission.
