He was a lot less ambitious about combatting climate change when he was still in The Hague. It seems like he just changes his stance based on his environment/job.

Or he’s looking for jobs that suit his changing opinions.

Hopefully he does a good job, should he get the position.

Of course that could be the case, but less than a year ago, he almost caused the collapse of the Dutch government on the sustainability of agriculture in the country.

At least I can’t see an honest motivation other than his own opportunities.

Can you provide some context or a link on the sustainable agriculture issue?

I really don’t think he is changing any opinion and I don’t think he’s a good fit. Actually I have no idea why they picked this guy at all.

Because he’s buddies with Rutte and his own party will be decimated in the upcoming election, so he needs a new job.
