The fourth Rutte cabinet is the current cabinet of the Netherlands. It was inaugurated on 10 January 2022. The cabinet is a continuation of the third Rutte cabinet and is formed by the conservative liberal People's Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD), the social liberal Democrats 66 (D66) and the Christian democratic Christian Democratic Appeal (CDA) and Christian Union (CU) after the election of 2021.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] The cabinet fell on 7 July 2023, after failing to reach an agreement on separate treatment of refugees fleeing from war.[10][11] As a result, the cabinet became demissionary.
