- Mark Rutte, who has been the Netherlands' Prime Minister since 2010, is set to take over as as Nato’s secretary general in October.
The current head, Jens Stoltenberg, will be stepping down on 1 October after holding the position for nearly a decade.
Rutte's support for Ukraine helped win him the favour of key Nato countries including the UK and the US.
On Thursday, his only opponent - Romanian President Klaus Iohannis - pulled out of the race.
Rutte is expected to be confirmed as Nato’s next secretary general over the next few days.

Sad news that Donald Sutherland has died. A laid back unassuming likeable actor, one of the greats, RIP Donald, you will be sorely missed.
Rutte has always been at the service of big capital and an obedient servant!
How a failed politician gets appointed to such a position, what’s a farce!
A failed politician who was re-elected 4 times
The puppet of the wef.
LOL he is no puppet. But what do you care you live in Russia
@@drscopeify classic moronic responce.

Go and look it up and watch him suck up to his masters.

Just another puppet...
Not like your president Putin
@@drscopeify anyone who criticizes Rutte must be a Russian or Putin supporter. Yeah wow, as a leftist and critic of Hillary/Biden type dems, I've never heard this one. /sarcasm.
Inform yourself about Rutte before you dismiss and smear critics, thanks.
@@Karmagheden The head of NATO is about management skills not about politics, if he is right wing or left wing or anything is totally nullified when he takes over NATO office and looking at his skills he is a very solid leader for NATO for the future, he will be aggressive, assertive and a powerful leader.
@@drscopeify it's like talking to someone reading a script with their fingers in their ears. If you want to stay in denial or willfully ignorant, that's you're choice, just saying maybe tone down the wild accusations because you can't be bothered to fact check criticism of rutte which btw is backed up by articles from reputable journalists. Check jacobin and diem25 for articles on Rutte and nato.
@@Karmagheden Yanis Varoufakis is a Putin simp, he was going around "warning" of playing with fire in giving Ukraine weapons. Yanis Varoufakis is a dangerous man, he is a Putin supporter in the closet and I can explain why. Greece sees Turkey as their enemy and Russia has been both a friend and an enemy of Turkey for 70 years, so Greece sees Russia as a friend. This is not a surprise that a nationalist greek like Yanis Varoufakis is PRO-Russia. Be careful of Diem25 they are not who they seem to be.
the biggest liar ever seen in politics
He isn't as bad as Rishi Sunak and Boris Johnson, but i'll give you that he looks like them.
Rutte takes the bike to work. I like him.
@@Joey-ct8bm is this the end of the world?
Rutte mommys boy. Yes that man still lives with his mother. If i were to live 12mtrs below sea level, i would rather STFU.
@@Nezuchan07 I think one of the more hotheaded Eastern European candidates is worse. Domestic policy was awful in the Netherlands at times, but internationally it was a good president. One of the few who was also good with Trump for instance.
He didn't lash out at Russia too after the MH17 crash in Ukraine where almost 200 people of my country died. It's definitely a talker, not a fighter.
He also let Putin his daughter leave after the MH17 who was living in my country at the time.
Who cares. The only thing that matters is how Labour is going to tax the living day lights out of us. The BBC needs to find out and tell the population the horrible truth.
Can it be worse than the Tories? Even if you vote Reform you already know some Tories will get job there.
@@Joey-ct8bm Worse, I think that’s a certainty. The problem is how much worse and the signs and silence are very, very worrying.

WEF CLOWNS IN CHARGE OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS..WE ARE DOOMED.
You're right, we are doomed. But mostly because of morons who post stupid comments on YT solely based on the stupid comments of other morons.
LOL Russian troll spotted. Putin is a sick old man 73 soon he will be gone, what will you do when the civil war starts in Russia?
Just want to tell what a lot of Dutch people think of Rutte.
He has left the 🇳🇱behind in a complete disaster.
With his sweet smile, bike and apple, hi here and hi there and his smooth talks, he has fooled a lot of people.
Why do you think Wilders got lot of votes? Out of protest being sick of all the Liberal years under Rutte! His party lost the elections big time.
Rutte never had a vision, certainly not for longer time than just before and after the elections. He was even proud of it.
According to all the newspapers who are to lazy to look into things quoting stuff of Rutte his own party....
Rutte once said "No" to Trump visiting the WH😂😂😂 Trump didn't even notice. Check it!
Trump asked Rutte if he was gay because he never married.
Rutte denied that, just to busy working, he said.
I think that's a better qualification and he did a great job after MH17 the most important thing of his career, he said.
A lot of the Dutch people love 🇺🇦 which he supported because of MH17 too.
He went to the WH. Biden said than he would like Rutte to have the job and lateron the government collapsed.
After one year the excuses where a lie too.
But if someone is able to kiss asses, to get what he wants, it's him. 😅
How can people say Rutte did a good job on MH17? Didn't anyone in the Netherlands know that safety over ukrainian air space was the responsibility of ukraine and they could not not guarantee that over the rebel held areas? Four days before MH17 was shot down, the rebels shot down a ukrainian military cargo plane at 22000 feet, proving they had the capability of shooting down airliners at 37,000 feet. Ukraine knew it wasn't safe to fly over the rebel held areas but they did not close their airspace and that brought about the shooting down of MH17. Ukraine's criminal negligence in not closing their air space resulted in the loss of MH17.
Geert Wilders would have been a lot better if they wanted somebody Dutch.
@facehugger3 Yes! Please take Geert Wilders away from The Netherlands! I have never been so ashamed of a government. He will be available in about 4 months. Give him an office at the Southpole.
anotherwef guy
What are his military qualifications exactly? You don't normally appoint somebody like a plumber or a car mechanic as a general in charge of an army do you?
Don't be ridiculous. This is not an military appointment - the role of NATO Secretary General is an administrative one - he chairs all the senior decision-making committees and has the role of NATO Spokesperson. The NATO Command Structure deals with military decisions. It is under the authority of the Military Committee, composed of Chiefs of Defence of all member countries and Chaired by Admiral Rob Bauer, the former Chief of Defence of the Netherlands.
Another failure gets a lucrative position
He just had to downplay and deny what lsreaI is doing in gahzahh.
Being the longest serving Prime Minister of the Netherlands is not a fail.
Big Mistake and forced bij klaus schwab
O, this is the WEF fella trying to close down Netherlands farms. And now to be head of NATO.
Makes sense if you want WWIII
Further proof we are the carbon they want to reduce.
which they do
This curiosity is what we call a "wappie" or nutty in the Netherlands. They tend to get likes from bots or "wappieforums".
He's pretty shitty in domestic politics, but very good in international politics, so he will be good at this job. He won't start WWIII, he was very cool and collective after Russia shot 193 Dutch people out of the sky with the MH17. The alternative was somebody from Eastern Europe. They were very hotheaded against Russia, certainly the Poles. Don't think that guy from Poland would've been a good idea.
They are global terrorists.
Unbelievable
But Rutte failed as Dutch PM. Talk about promoting failures!
Failed? He has the kept that job longer than anybody else. By what measure is he a failure?
BS. He was the longest-serving Prime Minister.
Jobs for the old boys of course !
Jobs for the boys!
The weakest link. Ask the dutch .
I am Dutch and you are wrong and most likely a Geert Wilders voter.
We are spending 2% of GDP on defense since this year in the Netherlands while giving away aid to Ukraine. He made sure of that. Rutte is also good with Trump.
We gave more money to Ukraine then the Eastern countries overall. The F16s Ukraine is getting is also initiated by Rutte by the way.
A hotheaded Pole would be a bad thing for NATO.
Not by percentage of GDP - the last figure available was 1.7% for 2023. As for Eastern European member countries, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia all spend more than 2% of GDP with Poland the highest at 3.9%. Greece, Finland and UK also spend more than 2% of GDP on their defence.
Why can't you see that Rutte is a warmonger who is a real danger because he could easily lead us in to WW3 and the end of all of us?
@@MTMF.london @MTMF.london For advanced economy 1.7% is not bad at all, the goal is 2% but 1.7% is pretty close in a year of rising rates and after inflation run. Better than UK, Germany maybe France too
@@drscopeify Inflation is pretty much world-wide and cost of living is rising almost everywhere too in advance economies. UK has spent 2.3% of GDP on defence in 2023 and are committed to at least 2% and increasing to 2.5% of GDP by 2030. Whether in reality it will come to that is debatable as the figure is a pledge by the current Tory government.
So nobody thinks he's any good and they give him the top job.
That's just too complex and intellectual for me to figure.
he's good at doing what the WEF tell him to do
@@boxingforselfdefence7620 Ah I got you. He is obedient. Right.

Evil nato
As a dutch person whos lived under mark rutte for a lomg time, were fucked. Hes going to cozy up to china and do budget cuts on nato
The guy's outgoing, pragmatic, social and a very, very nimble politician. He works harder than anyone, and has only called in sick once in 12 years. Apart from being PM he taught classes to underprivileged youths in his free time. Even though Ive never voted for him those are qualities I have always appreciated and respected.
Yet nobody likes him in Netherlands.
@@sleepyjoe7843 not true, until he pulled the plug himself he has always had an overwhelming amount of votes (voorkeursstemmen). And even his political enemies appreciate the guy's work attitude and personality
@@sleepyjoe7843 apart from all of this he lives in a tiny appartment, comes to work by bike and he treated all the workers with respect. He accidentally dropped his coffee once and took the broom from the cleaner so he could clean it himself as he felt awful. Again: not my choice politically, but we will miss the guy for sure.
@@dichi3163 We need results, not politeness which is in most cases fake anyway. Same with smiles you see from these politicians, looks like they are on/take something 24/7. (We for sure know what Zelensky takes/sniffs).
People that voted for Rutte a few years ago would not vote anymore. He would have lost in current elections. He is a good speaker no doubt, will be better than paniking Stontenberg.
@@sleepyjoe7843 Dutch people are a bunch of crybabies. It's one of the wealthiest countries in the world and the economy hasn't been doing poorly compared to its peers while he was in charge.
They are just changing turns. Lay off deceiving others please.
Surely a man with a backbone

Here help ons so lank hy hom mooi gedra
Why do all these NATO guys look like the Puppets from Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons😂
No 2 war no 2 nato
No 2 Putin
nato = no war. At least within the alliance, a war is impossible because NATO is obligated to help each other out. It's the aggressors that forced NATO to step up their arsenal, which was the opposite goal of Russia. NATO was sleeping hard before February 2020, but now they expanded their NATO/Russia border and got a lot of new members. NATO should stay strong and expand to ensure as many people of safety. Perhaps Russia can join once it values its citizens enough to do so.
@@funnytv9999 France allowing migrants to cross the English Channel is a tacit act of war. Belarus used migrants against Poland. How's that for an alliance?
@@mr.coolmug3181 Why should France stop migrants to cross the English Channel? It's UK's problem - Brexit, you know. Another thing, Belarus is not part of the NATO alliance mate. It is a puppet state of Russia.
@@mr.coolmug3181 France does not have to stop migrants crossing the English Channel. It is UK's problem - Brexit mate. Belarus are not in the alliance - it is a Russian puppet state.
' Rutte's support for Ukraine helped win him the favour of key Nato countries including the UK and the US.'

there is bbc why need nato?
What?

Russian trolls LOL wow such low IQ
Let’s hope this change will make sure NATO will not stand by terrorists like Islamic regime in Iran
He is always lying. He is perfect for nato
Negotiating coalitions in Dutch politics should be an ideal preparation for dealing between the various members of NATO and their sometimes different interests.
Well, that's nice, the traitor of my country
The mentor of Wilders at the VVD. Nothing has changed. It just got even worse. Now you got VVD and ex VVD. For the British people. We got Tory and ex far right tory now running our government. Higher taxes for the people and tax cuts and shares discounts for businesses and corporations. We are already the biggest tax haven in the world in the Netherlands.
@LeonDegrelle.z nope
@LeonDegrelle.z 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@LeonDegrelle.z alas, never been to Russia😔
Donder lekker op naar Rusland NSB/FvD-er
Before putin, I thought Europe has capabilities to defend itself. NATO did most work.
A lot can be said about Mark Rutte as a person and as a PM. Positive and negative. He was PM during the financial crisis, the Euro crisis and during the corona pandemic. We came out at the other end pretty solid. With 15 political parties in our house of representatives and with 27 countries in the EU he knows how to build coalitions and consensus and knows how to get things done. Which is more than can be said for most PM's/Presidents in other countries over the past 15 years (especially in the UK). On defence spending: the Dutch population in half that of Poland and our GDP is 1.5 times that of Poland. The Netherlands now spends 2% of GDP on de defence. Poland would need to spend 3% of GDP to match that in absolute Euro/USD terms. Poland would need to spend 6% of GDP to do the same on a per capita basis
Gay Sex Scandal is what Rutte would be known for ..🇳🇱
De Best Choice 👍👍👍.
Rutte knows what Fascist Russia did to MH-17. A good choice.
It was brought down by Ukrainian terrorists.
Probably Ukraine that shoot MH-17 but bigger issue why was MH-17 in warzone?
@@sleepyjoe7843 Probably not Boris. No potato for you today.
@@richardm4825 Yeah, typical intelligent answer.

Thanks BBC for your excellent News! In this News broadcast, you should have fact checked the claim that the Netherlands doesn't comply to the nato norm of spending 2% of GDP. According to information of the ministery of defence and Some quality newspapers, the Nederlands will comply in 2024 to the nato norm!

We will see when and if they actually do.
We're saved.Hold that finger in lad.Dont move.
Supporting Ukraine’s success is Europe’s best security
The worst NATO secretary who will probably be the last!
There’s a shocker
There are many incorrect statements made by the guest. Dutch defense spending 2023 / 2024 is 2,08% GDP. Which is above the guideline (not mandatory) NATO level.
Is he a warmonger? Can he negotiate to end the war?
He’s pretty much a typical centrist, so I doubt he’ll call for a ceasefire in Gaza
he's a war monger of course. NATO is a US foreign policy front and the US is a war economy set on de-stabilising Europe's economies with war, duping them into buying its arms and gas.
What war?
He wouldn't get the job unless he is a deranged dictator.
The only warmonger here is Putin. He is not negotiating to end the war - he only wants to grab lands that don't belong to Russia.
He already settled that he will be tough on Russia and made the Dutch spending to the needed percentage
"What can we say to make it look like Israel is not committing war crimes?" Rutte
The anti-citizen merry go around continues.
A Man still living with his mother and 12 mtrs below sea level. Wtf is going on?
Troll enough?
Is this one of the guys that laughed at Trump when Trump told them they needed to start paying their obligations? Yes he was. Now Trump has warned that maybe America doesn’t feel so generous anymore. Are they still laughing?
Nonsense. Rutte has always clearly said that Trump was right when he emphasized that member stated should meet their obligations. What foreign people don't seem to understand is the complex nature of Dutch politics. Rutte has been PM (not president) of four different coalition governments, consisting of 3 to 5 political parties with hugely different agenda's. His job was to keep the governments together and functioning, not to take final decisions on defense budgets etc.
Is this the same guy that lied about not reading Klaus schwab's book, and then was exposed by a political colleague as an outright liar?
So be glad I stayed out of Israel- Hamas issue, and let people decide who they want to support, I don't mind people supporting Palestinians or Israel, it is a case that is GREY.
Me I am personally pro-Israel, but doesn't mean I am pro-Nethanyahu.
What is the interviewer negatieve and simple
Rutte is the best
He is a warmonger who will lead us further towards WW3 and the obliteration of all of us and you consider him the best! We need someone with the views of Nigel Farage as secretary general of nato

@@whiteburnside2417 Yeah? Is that why no country dares attack one of its members?
No one from a country that doesn't meet their 2% spending target should be allowed to lead NATO, for heaven's sake.
Great news Mark Rutte first job is to get the logistics right for delivery of Victory in Ukraine!
This guys a worry theyre loading up all the positions with warmongers
Dutch PM Mark Rutte likely next head of NATO
The only reason why BBC gave such a negative viewpoint of Rutte, is cause Ben Wallace was denied the position, but that was cause USA wanted somebody in the EU to take over. not our call to be made, Ben Wallace was good too for NATO head. infact I wouldn't have mind at all if Ben Wallace was NATO head either, but Brexit threw a screw into that too.
And by the way, Netherlands already hit the 2% NATO spending this year, infact it set to surpass the 2% in the next year with CV-90 being made in the Netherlands as a joint venture with Sweden.
NATO is basically a terrorist group that has murdered millions. There is nothing good about them.
Why isn't Nigel Farage in the leaders debate. Reform polling way about Lib Dem and SNP, in some polls above Tories and Farage himself polls as the most popular party leader. The BBC is paid for by the public and should reflect that. It's a disgrace.
Week after October 7th, M rutte as well as other leaders travaled to Israel, A non Nato member) to give Support..

I’m reading a lot of comment critiquing this man? I thought he was a good one?
NATO is basically a terrorist group and all the leaders are war criminals.
Trolls are always around.
Chairman of the Dutch council of ministers is a job in which one makes foes and enemies, he kept that job for over thirteen and a half year, which makes him the record holder, with the first one to get to a dozen years, as the very first liberal one, since the one keeping the country out of WW I. So, yeah, he is a good and experienced one, but you do not have to LIKE him.
How long will he remain as the Dutch PM? Thought Geert Wilders' party won the majority of seats in the Dutch parliament.
Someone else from the same political party that Mark Rutte was in will be the new Dutch PM as part of the Wilders alliance. (they didn't want Wilders to be PM)
Wilders only won a plurality of seats, so he has to form a coalition first. That usually takes a long while in the Netherlands because there are so many different parties in their parliament, many of which are very uncomfortable with Wilders becoming PM. For the meantime, Rutte is still the acting PM and will remain until Wilders or someone else forms a new coalition and is appointed by the King.
Probably around 5 weeks. Geert Wilders is not becoming PM. A coalition has been made and the VVD party from Rutte is also in the government. Dick Schoof is gonna be PM. He is ex MI6( called AIVD in my country) and has no affirmation with any of the coalition parties. A compromise between party's. Geert Wilders will never be president of my country. He's just too far right. Workcamps as prisons and that kind of stuff. His election program outside immigration is pretty crazy. Even using army on the streets and no right to a Lawler. Luckily other party's keep him in check.
Geert Wilder's party did not win majority of seats - they won 37 out of 150 seats. There will be a coalition government with 3 other parties and him as Prime Minister.

Would they have joined if it was a dutch guy ?i dunno
Yall done in
All they had to do was send someone who looked like greta ..to change gretas mind
Now why do you yhink there has been consensus for Rutte, very fast among all big players. He is by far the most capable. The two opposing nations which held out long where those nations which were told by Rutte - rightfully so, and as a pm - that they were bad in human rights. They were butthurt. Only Romania held up Iohannis, just to find out nobody would vote for him.
There is little to no nuance in this BBCstory. I guess the Brits are angry their dude didn't get the job.
Talk about jobs for the boys.
You see how that works
The Netherlands is one of the biggest Ukraine supporters in Europe with money, F16 fighters, two patriot systems, tanks, and much more.
And this PM most hated by the people of Netherlands.

Best man for the job! If someone is able to built consensus it is Rutte. This so called american expert continuously is rambling on about the 2% of the GDP forgetting the Dutch military were deployed and operated in many conflicts in the world therefore doing much more. I will predict Rutte being the best SecretaryGeneral Nato ever had. Americans are getting nervous as Teflon Mark isn’t easily persuaded, set aside or intimidated.
