no required majority for ratification of CETA in the Netherlands

[Burghard Ilge]

Dear all
Just wanted to let you that in the Netherlands the head of social democratic party just announced that they will not support ratification of the CETA text in its current form.
This means that there won’t be the required mayor in the first chamber of the Dutch parliament needed for the ratification of CETA
