There is no question of European commissioner and VVD supporter Neelie Kroes becoming prime minister if the Liberals emerge as the biggest party after the June 9 general election, according to party elders in the AD on Tuesday.

It is only hypothetical in the case of a minority cabinet, Liberal MP Stef Blok was quoted as saying. ‘But we are not considering that to be an option,’ Blok said.
Kroes’s name has been mentioned several times as a potential prime minister in place of campaign and party leader Mark Rutte.
However, Kroes told reporters on Tuesday her return to the Netherlands is ‘not necessary’,
‘I am a European and there is a lot to do,’ she was quoted as saying.
Rutte is widely regarded as the big winner of Sunday’s televised debate between the leaders of the four biggest parties.
