The collapse stems from Wilders' demand for stricter asylum measures, reflecting his ambition to strengthen the PVV in future elections. Wilders accused the coalition of failing to implement his proposals, many of which had already been discussed but deemed legally questionable. Political reactions include criticism from former coalition members, who allege that Wilders orchestrated the crisis to refocus on his party’s declining popularity. The situation has prompted uncertainty over the immediate economic impact but has reignited debates on immigration policy in Dutch politics.

Despite the turbulence, experts suggest Wilders' gamble might not yield favorable outcomes in the elections, given his prior influence on asylum issues during the coalition's short lifespan.
