Populist nationalist anti-immigration N-VA forms new coalition gov't in Belgium | Eastern North Carolina Now

Belgium has become the latest European county to form a government led by a populist nationalist anti-immigration party of the right.  After eight months of coalition talks since the parliamentary election, a new government has been formed led by the populist nationalist anti-immigration New Flemish Alliance (N-VA) party.  The new prime minister will be Bart de Wever, former mayor of Antwerp.  De Wever announced the new coalition formatiion in a press conference with Belgium's King Phillipe.

Since the EU headquarters is in Belgium's capital of Brussels, it is ironic that the Belgian national government will now be led by a Eurosceptic party.
