If they want to have a coalition of 4 there is basically two flavours:
D66, CDA, VVD + GL-PvdA
D66, CDA, VVD + JA21
Option one is blocked by VVD because they consider GL-PvdA too left, mainly because of their policies on taxing the rich used to pay for measurements against climate change. If PvdA turns out to be willing to accept a more moderate apprach, this would lead to a sturdy majority.
D66 and CDA have a problem with JA21 because of what they see as immoral policies. They are strongly against migration and use the controversial term of remigration because they’d like to give money migrated people with dutch passports to leave the country/the eu and live somewhere else. They also want to continue drilling for gas, but that is probably less of an issue because they already said they want to do this after 2030 (long story). If JA21 accepts a more reasonable stance on migration they could become an acceptable partner but they would only have a small majority.
If these 2 options don’t work out they will have to look for a coalition with 5 parties which would be a first. Or they could have a minority cabinet, but since both D66 and CDA are big on there having to be a stable government i don’t think that will happen soon either.
