🇧🇪⚡️ — Belgium’s King Philippe rejected Prime Minister Bart De Wever’s resignation on Friday and ordered him to resume budget negotiations after talks collapsed earlier this week. Following consultations, leaders of the five-party coalition pledged to seek a compromise on a three-year budget plan. De Wever, who has struggled to secure support for his proposals to tackle Belgium’s debt, must report back to the king on November 16.
