Deputy Prime Minister: Netherlands and not Morocco has to deal with Ede Hooligans


Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Integration Lodewijk Asscher (Labor Party) has said on behalf of the government that the hooligans in the town of Ede have to be dealt with by the Netherlands and not by Morocco. Fifty Moroccan Dutchmen have rioted in the past weeks in the town's Veldhuizen neighborhood.. Ede mayor Cees van der Knaap had called for help from the Moroccan Consul General Khalid Guelzim, who then apologized on behalf of Morocco for the behavior of the youngsters. Van der Knaap has been heavily criticized for his calling on the Moroccan diplomat.
