Belgian PM De Wever Resigns Over Budget Impasse as King Delays Decision
Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever has tendered his resignation following the collapse of budget negotiations within his five-party coalition. King Philippe has not yet accepted the resignation, stating he will consult with party leaders before making a final decision. The crisis stems from an inability to agree on how to cut the national deficit, with the government facing a deadline to secure a 2027 budget by December 31.
