Pieter Broertjes, Mayor of Hilversum,
said on the radio that he wanted 29-year-old Maria Putin, the daughter of the
Russian President, thrown out of The Netherlands where she lives with her
Dutch boyfriend. This is because of the
Dutch frustration with Russia concerning the major plane crash in Ukraine,
where a large number of Dutch were killed. Broertjes later apologized on
Twitter, saying that his remarks were not wise and stemmed from a feeling of
helplessness. [Broertjes, in the past, was the editor-in-chief of the Dutch
daily, Volkskrant.]
