He did secure a majority and he now could and wants to take the position of Prime Minister. We have to wait and see if this happens.
I've come to realize that the Dutch general election does not involve a second round. The Netherlands employs a multi-party system with proportional representation, eliminating the need for a runoff.
In the 150-seat parliament, the PVV (Freedom Party) secured 37 seats, while a left-wing bloc obtained 25 seats, and the center-right VVD secured 24. Although the PVV won the most seats among major parties, it still fell short of an outright majority, more than 50% or 75+ seats in the parliament.
The leader of the PVV must still need to engage in negotiations with other parties to form a coalition capable of holding a majority of seats in the parliament to establish a government. Other parties might not want to be part of his government. If these negotiations prove unsuccessful, other parties may be invited to attempt to form a coalition.
