The Orwellian language of Dutch Prime Minister Rob Jetten.

George Orwell warned that political language often disguises uncomfortable realities through vagueness, euphemism, and bureaucratic phrasing.

Jetten’s recent statement is a textbook example.

@martoiu Regarding a matter of life and death, it should be prohibited to use such vague, ambivalent speak. Understanding and supporting at the same time belong to deranged individuals, for it is logically and scientifically impossible.
I despise this stance from the Ditch government.

@apenkop : I would be surprised if Evilgöz did not propose to help the US and Israel in military attacks in the Middle East. And don't underestimate conservative voices in the CDA.

The statement "begrip", a compromise, probably prevented her from blowning up the current government.
