Dutch king and queen in US for controversial visit to Trump - DutchNews.nl

The three-day visit includes White House meetings and a dinner where King Willem-Alexander will speak, as Dutch officials seek closer ties.

  • King Willem-Alexander and Queen Maxima arrived in Pennsylvania on Sunday for a three-day working visit to the United States, heading to Washington on Monday for a reception and dinner with President Donald Trump at the White House.
  • The cabinet admitted the timing is "unfortunate," given the war in Iran and Trump's stinging criticism of NATO allies, though ministers maintained the visit's value outweighs these disadvantages.
  • According to RTL Nieuwspanel research, 51% of the Dutch approve of maintaining relations with the Trump administration, while 38% oppose the visit citing concerns about his policies.
  • Prime Minister Rob Jetten joins the royals for the White House dinner, where officials aim to "underline and strengthen the Dutch-US relationship in a number of key areas."
  • On Tuesday, the couple travels to Florida with foreign trade minister Sjoerd Sjoerdsma and infrastructure minister Vincent Karremans to advance the commercial and political agenda.
