Raymond Knops, Deputy Minister of the Interior and Kingdom
Relations, will take over the authority of the Caribbean Island of Sint-Eustasius.
A commission has investigated the current leadership and come to the conclusion
that there is ongoing lawlessness, financial mismanagement, discrimination,
intimidation, threats, insults and abuse of power. The commission says that the Dutch government has also been guilty of neglect as the relationship between the Netherlands and Eustasius
has deteriorated. This has led to delay
in the repair of roads, the water supply, housing, underground lines, and treatment
of waste.
