If Belgium had a government, they’d be apologizing too
No, there will be no reparations.
I take his apology back, no apologies!
Sounds more like he’s sucking himself off and one upping the rest of the inbred helmets.
He should apologise… to the Portuguese. Those guys started the exploration in Africa and Asia, created their own commercial empire, just to have the Dutch to steal it from them. Those calvinists bastards stole what Portuguese rightfully colonised, enslaved and raided.
Common Dutch L, as usual.
what slaves? unpaid labor you mean
Weak and dumb. The next step will be a bunch of degenerates asking for reparations.
Typical dutchoid L
We’re still waiting for an apology concerning the occupation between 1815-1830. That was unwarranted.
Is the Dutch King part of the government? Our Germano-Britannic Majesty is Head of State, so not ‘part of the government’.
Skill issue

Emphasis on excusing himself. It was a personal apology. He was saying sorry on his own behalf and that of his ancestors. My granddaddy didn’t do nothing they didn’t deserve!
You all should be ashamed oh your filthy past!
Bèta move Alex 🍺
Weak.
Bullshit. Europeans are the ones who abolished slavery and enforced its end internationally, even using force. The UK single-handedly blockaded the whole fucking African continent to stop it:
Rather than us apologising, the world should be grateful to us that the very idea that slavery is wrong even exists today.
This man does not speak for me.
Why does it have to be him who apologizes for someone else’s deeds done over 200 years ago? They could just give the task to Pluk* on the corner.
(*Highly likely an actual dutch name)
Sowwy ^^
Absolutely pathetic
Barry, now do apologize to us for the Hundred Years’s war, for burning Joan of Arc and exiling Napoleon !
This man apologises for about anything that happened in history as long as he keeps that steady flow of money going his way.
Who’s gonna apologize for the barbary coast slave trade?
Ups my bad they just enslaved white europeans, my bad.
As someone whose people where taken as part of a bigger slave trade, I request that noone actually pays anything, just one apology is MORE than enough, it wasnt him that took the slaves…
Oh wait one people that should take some blame, the africans coastal people who caught and sold the slaves in the first place
Will the descendants of the war chiefs down in Africa apologize for selling their own people to the slave trade?
Great but when are you going to apologise for the Dutch language??
I don’t see Arabs or Turks or all of the African tribes apologizing first among each other for enslaving each other for centuries prior to white men and then I either see no Muslims applogizing for assaulting white Europeans for centuries which in turn invoke the Spanish Reconquista and a chain of crusades to claim the Christian lands from the encroached Islam after it was fought off in Europe
Jokes on him but many african monarchs protested when it became obvious that slavery was ending. Selling pows as slaves to go work and die on plantations in the americas was very profitable for these.
