New Dutch coalition promises to consider moving Israel embassy to Jerusalem

Political parties of the Netherlands's new right-wing coalition have agreed to look into the "appropriate time" in which they will move their country's embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.

the draft agreement, which Dutch media report was finalised on Wednesday night, follows November's Dutch general elections, which saw the far-right, pro-Israel Party for Freedom receive the highest share of votes.

The party now has 37 of the Dutch lower house's 150 seats.

Geert Wilders, the head of the party, is known for his anti-Islam stances and was found guilty of inciting discrimination against Moroccans against Muslims in 2016.
