After 14 years in power, this is how former Dutch Prime Minister

Mark Rutte left the Prime Minister's Office after completing the ceremony of officially handing over power to his successor, Dick Schoof.

[@Itisowlcat]

That is definitely how the former Dutch Prime Minister

[@yamiimax]

Thats the dutchest Thing ive ever witness haha

[@Alexandros.Mograine]

I liked how the former Dutch Prime Minister

[@AmInen-ro9bn]

Well at least he didn't get eaten

[@rafaeldemaupas6055]

Lmfaoo i admire your culture but now seems it’s in France we have most chances to see a head-cutted president 💀

[@sqlexp]

That bike lock won't have much an effect in most other countries.

[@dariusftw3378]

usually in the netherlands when it isn't being filmed by 20 cameras they also use a regular bike lock

[@thestudentofficial5483]

Including Netherlands itself lol.

[@ThePursuitWOD]

Same type of lock is used in Japan. It probably wont get stolen in Japan though because every bike is registered and they have police constantly scanning bikes registrations.

[@IkkezzUsedEmber]

​@@thestudentofficial5483 depends on where you live. In most smaller places it's usually enough.

[@kaasmeester5903]

There are 5 security guys watching it... any thief trying his luck will "find out" in a hurry

The bike part or the leaving office part? 😅

[@ashraf7242]

I just liked how the former Dutch Prime Minister

[@YourLocalDoctor]

I didn't know how the former Dutch Prime Minister, but now I do!

[@swedemartyrsonswade]

This is the most Dutch thing to do after resigning from work but one thing that is different this time is his bike has no basket on it. Interesting!

[@traininthebutt7215]

The basket left when he left office, per Dutch law

[@jemoeder5347]

He's a man and not a dad and it's not Amsterdam

Wasn't dissappointed, i definetly did see how the former Dutch prime minister

[@mustolourien5823]

A mere government offical in Kenya travels in big SUV, Toyata prado or LC 200.

[@ShrunkedDude]

Similar to the UK. We've had Conservatives in government for 14 years and they just left on Friday.

[@tjurti6803]

This guy was a liberal though. We’re getting the populists in now….

[@Veronicat-of4nz]

Different style leaving.

[@DrSaloniShah]

On yer bike! 👏🏼

[@litete2512]

This is the most Dutch thing Ive ever seen other than Ongezellig and Not Just Bikes

[@ALSPEHEIR]

I find hilarious that despise the fact that Netherlands being super safe country with really low crime rates, the PM still locked his bike with a padlock lol Now THAT is a guy that thinks about safety 🤣

[@AJGress]

It's funny how while that might might statistically be true, most Dutch people have probably had their bike stolen at least once in their life

[@robertlee8862]

What a humble guy 👍👍

In Nigeria he would have a hundred car escorts, a waiting presidential jet to fly him to the closest airport to his hometown, civic receptions, special church/mosque prayers, newly constructed residences, speeches , more speeches and eulogies.....and after a day or two, likely be flown abroad for medical check ups and follow ups with his clandestine bankers. All for helping to run down his country and people.

[@LCTesla]

You should have seen his torentje (lttle tower, the tiny, humble office of prime minister)

[@amgupta3006]

In our country India , even the former Pradhan(Head of Village) , the BDC Member enjoys benefits of having former- title. Yes this is the reality, although This are the smallest elected post.

[@devanshvikram6688]

[@marko-qg4gc]

After he pased the corner he jumped off his bike and into the limousine that took him to his new private jet from NATO.

While in office, Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad DONATED his entire salary to charity. His wife brought home cooked lunches to his office each day and they sat together dining. Uruguay's President Mujica donates 90% of his salary to charity and still drives his old Volkswagen car to work each day.

[@willylao5430]

Great, humble leaders.

[@knowledgemovieschannel1701]

Iran's president Mahmoud ahmadi great great leaders ❤

[@aliancemd]

Got to love authoritarian leaders that steal basically everything from the country, claiming they “donated their salary’. There are idiots like you that buy it though, so, propaganda is effective I guess

How is it propaganda?

[@bastonor]

Yup, probably propaganda. On this particular occasion. However, he's been verifiably known to just do this on a daily basis for years on end. Security people? No doubt. But in a city like The Hague it still is the fastest way around.

[@danielde7542]

For all those curious, the former prime-minister will be given a 28-room appartment in Brussels, along with a 300,000 euro yearly salary. I dont think he will be using that bike any time soon

Not at all. You obviously know nothing about small countries such as the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, Denmark… Ministers travel by train or bike day in day out with little or no protection. Mark Rutte was known for biking to work on a daily basis, like everyone in the Netherlands. Educate yourself about the Benelux countries rather than posting crap.
