parties, the king noted each of their commitment to concluding the budget negotiations as soon as possible,&#8221; the Palace announced in an update on Friday. &#8220;All reaffirmed their determination to reach an agreement on a sound budgetary path for the next three years.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It said the king had also received a &#8220;formal commitment from the five leaders that their parties are prepared to make concessions in order to reach an agreement within the government.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>De Wever is seeking \u20ac10 billion by 2029 to plug a deficit gap, but coalition parties

The Prime Minister will report back to the king on Monday 16 November,&#8221; a statement from the Belgian Royal Palace said.De Wever, a Flemish conservative, handed in his resignation on Monday amid a continuing budget crisis that has seen coalition partners fail to agree on a 2027 spending plan.The Royal Palace confirmed the prime minister&#8217;s move but said King Philippe had &#8220;put his decision on hold&#8221; and that he would begin talks with party leaders on Tuesday.&#8221;Following his discussions with the leaders of the five majority parties, the king noted each of their commitment to concluding the budget negotiations as soon as possible,&#8221; the Palace announced in an update on Friday. &#8220;All reaffirmed their determination to reach an agreement on a sound budgetary path for the next three years.&#8221;It said the king had also received a &#8220;formal commitment from the five leaders that their parties are prepared to make concessions in order to reach an agreement within the government.&#8221;De Wever is seeking \u20ac10 billion by 2029 to plug a deficit gap, but coalition parties are at odds over how to find the funds.Measures put forward have included spending cuts and a VAT increase that is opposed by the francophone liberal Reformist Movement (MR).<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2026\/11\/06\/belgian-king-refuses-pm-bart-de-wevers-resignation-and-asks-him-to-restart-budget-talks&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/98\/28\/26\/1200x675_cmsv2_c0b767e0-6c1e-5e97-af41-0a4395bfde2b-9982826.jpg&#8221;] Business Elon Musk&#8217;s Tesla to &#8216;wind down&#8217; Cybertruck production next year No Comment Spain: Vintage cars hit the streets of Almer\u00eda for annual rally The Big Question The Big Question: Who has the most to gain from EU enlargement?
