eurobiljetten een bewijs zijn dat contant geld niet verdwijnt. Waarom zou je anders nieuwe biljetten maken? Nu vertegenwoordigen de productiekosten van een biljet een fractie van de waarde van bijvoorbeeld een biljet van vijftig euro, het is geen geld volledig gedekt door een reserve in bijvoorbeeld goud. In een later stadium kan de ECB zonder veel kosten alsnog afstand nemen van cash, al zal dat niet ineens gebeuren. Op de biljetten die straks vernietigd worden staan dan mooie, kleurrijke Europese vogels die nu nog niet te zien zijn.</span></p><div id="youtube2-SbaWW9rGsfI" class="youtube-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;videoId&quot;:&quot;SbaWW9rGsfI&quot;,&quot;startTime&quot;:null,&quot;endTime&quot;:null}" data-component-name="Youtube2ToDOM"><div class="youtube-inner"><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/SbaWW9rGsfI?rel=0&amp;autoplay=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;enablejsapi=0" frameborder="0" loading="lazy" gesture="media" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowautoplay="true" allowfullscreen="true" width="728" height="409"></iframe></div></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Kort en goed is een digitale euro toch wel een beetje de vervanger van contant geld. Een centrale bank kan immers niet oneindig veel geld uitgeven. Dat tast de waarde aan en zorgt voor andere, gerelateerde &#8216;maatschappelijke kosten&#8217;. Nu hebben we op dit moment als burgers al de beschikking over contant geld van de ECB en pinpassen van banken. Als daar een extra vorm van geld naast wordt gezet, zal dat de bestaande verhoudingen natuurlijk veranderen. Lees daarvoor </span><a href="https://www.arnowellens.nl/p/een-digitale-euro-is-minstens-een"><span>het vorige artikel</span></a><span>. Het gebruik van cash loopt uit zichzelf al terug. De ECB zou de hoeveelheid geld gelijk kunnen houden, door voor een uit roulatie genomen eurobiljet een gelijke hoeveelheid digitale euro&#8217;s uit te geven. Dan is CBDC geen vervanger van cash, enkel een substituut. Is dat niet eigenlijk hetzelfde?</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dat burgers zo vaak en zo expliciet wordt gevraagd om mee te denken over de nieuwe eurobiljetten geeft een vals gevoel van zeggenschap. Dat is helemaal zo, als we ons realiseren dat de ECB inderdaad ook een digitale euro wil uitgeven. De ECB opereert daarbij samen met de Europese Commissie (EC), samen schrijven ze het wetsvoorstel. Door het Europese karakter van de euro (het is niet van een enkele lidstaat) is dat op zich ook niet zo heel gek.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Nu hebben EC en ECB ook </span><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230928131809/https://arnowellens.eu/blog/honderd-procent-is-tegen-een-digitale-euro-wordt-toch-doorgedrukt"><span>een openbare enqu&#234;te</span></a><span> gehouden over de digitale euro. Dat hoeft ook niet te verbazen, als we kijken naar het fanatisme waarmee de ECB burgers probeert mee te laten praten over toekomstige bankbiljetten. Bij het vragen van input van burgers gaat het voor het beoordelen van het democratisch gehalte natuurlijk niet om de vraag of er om uw mening wordt gevraagd, maar wat er met die mening gebeurt. Ingestuurde brieven kun je ook in de fik steken, of ongelezen aan de hongerige papierversnipperaar voederen. In het digitale tijdperk is het nog makkelijker. Maandenlang wijs je burgers dan op de mogelijkheid om een reactie te sturen, die je vervolgens niet leest. Je kunt dan tegen jezelf zeggen dat je 99 procent van de tijd democratisch bezig bent.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7ct8!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0c911629-527f-4b05-9a9c-db73d239e136_1740x949.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7ct8!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0c911629-527f-4b05-9a9c-db73d239e136_1740x949.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7ct8!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0c911629-527f-4b05-9a9c-db73d239e136_1740x949.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7ct8!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0c911629-527f-4b05-9a9c-db73d239e136_1740x949.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7ct8!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0c911629-527f-4b05-9a9c-db73d239e136_1740x949.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7ct8!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0c911629-527f-4b05-9a9c-db73d239e136_1740x949.png" width="1456" height="794" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/0c911629-527f-4b05-9a9c-db73d239e136_1740x949.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:794,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7ct8!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0c911629-527f-4b05-9a9c-db73d239e136_1740x949.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7ct8!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0c911629-527f-4b05-9a9c-db73d239e136_1740x949.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7ct8!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0c911629-527f-4b05-9a9c-db73d239e136_1740x949.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7ct8!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0c911629-527f-4b05-9a9c-db73d239e136_1740x949.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Een dergelijke raadpleging heet in de EU een &#8216;have your say&#8217;.

De vraagstelling leek een beetje sturend. Zo kon men aangeven welke aspecten belangrijk zijn, bijvoorbeeld lage kosten, veiligheid of privacy. Als je mensen vraagt of ze vinden dat de digitale euro veilig moet zijn in het gebruik, dan is iedereen voor.

Dat is iets anders dan mensen vragen of ze het eigenlijk wel willen. Als je die vraag stelt, dan is honderd procent tegen.

De premier ligt op twee belangrijke punten dwars. Slowakije wil geen migranten via de EU opnemen, wat we de afspraak is. De EU probeert illegale migratie aan de buitengrenzen gemeenschappelijk tegen te houden, waarbij legale migranten proportioneel over de lidstaten worden verdeeld. Slowakije neemt deze mensen simpelweg niet op en wijst illegale migranten die toch het grondgebied bereiken resoluut uit. Asiel aanvragen kan wel, maar via een spoedprocedure waarbij de migrant de uitspraak buiten het land afwacht. Die wet heet &#8216;Z&#225;kon o medzin&#225;rodnej ochrane&#8217;, weet u dat ook weer.

De banden waren goed en de premier nodigde de complete Russische maffia uit op de Zuidas. Bij die club zat ook Rostec, dat de wapens maakt die nu tegen Oekra&#239;ne worden gebruikt. Na 2013 ging het snel bergafwaarts met de betrekkingen.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9k0J!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe82fd421-e665-408d-bf5e-8b7e6873c27b_1400x923.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9k0J!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe82fd421-e665-408d-bf5e-8b7e6873c27b_1400x923.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9k0J!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe82fd421-e665-408d-bf5e-8b7e6873c27b_1400x923.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9k0J!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe82fd421-e665-408d-bf5e-8b7e6873c27b_1400x923.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9k0J!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe82fd421-e665-408d-bf5e-8b7e6873c27b_1400x923.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9k0J!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe82fd421-e665-408d-bf5e-8b7e6873c27b_1400x923.png" width="1400" height="923" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/e82fd421-e665-408d-bf5e-8b7e6873c27b_1400x923.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:923,&quot;width&quot;:1400,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9k0J!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe82fd421-e665-408d-bf5e-8b7e6873c27b_1400x923.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9k0J!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe82fd421-e665-408d-bf5e-8b7e6873c27b_1400x923.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9k0J!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe82fd421-e665-408d-bf5e-8b7e6873c27b_1400x923.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9k0J!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe82fd421-e665-408d-bf5e-8b7e6873c27b_1400x923.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Halbe Zijlstra maakte furore met de claim dat hij en Poetin een vriendschappelijke relatie onderhielden. De laatste zou de latere minister van Buitenlandse Zaken persoonlijk op de hoogte hebben gebracht van zijn invasieplannen, tijdens een retraite in zijn buitenhuis (&#8216;datsja&#8217;) in Rusland. Het bleek een leugen, natuurlijk. De VVD zat met een zedenschandaal in de maag. De gedoodverfde minister van Buitenlandse Zaken die het eigenlijk had moeten worden, had zich vergrepen aan zijn persoonlijk medewerkster.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De NCTV meldde Rutte dat hij daarom chantabel zou zijn en geen minister kon worden. Rutte schoof op het allerlaatste moment Zijlstra naar voren, maar die had helemaal geen dossier op dat vlak. Daarom verzonnen ze een leugen die aansloeg bij het publiek. Zo was de mythe van de vriendschap tussen Poetin en Zijlstra geboren, net als het idee dat de VVD over &#8216;geheime informatie&#8217; beschikt over de intenties van de Russische president. De relatie met Rusland was toch rap aan het verslechteren, dus deze leugen zou een lange houdbaarheid hebben. Rutte had het goed gezien.

Daarna volgde er een maand stilte, waarna de meeste Europese leiders identieke berichten de wereld inslingerden.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2

</span><a href="https://www.bild.de/politik/ausland-und-internationales/propaganda-video-zur-leipzig-drohne-diese-dreisten-luegen-verbreitet-russland-6aaa7d18a9420481bd213744"><span>de gebruikte hobbydrone</span></a><span> te koop is in elke gespecialiseerde winkel, een willekeurige fanaat die houdt van snelle drones kan hem zo kopen. Het is daarom niet vast te stellen dat het om een Russische wapen gaat. Er zijn ook nooit soortgelijke Russische aanslagen op Europese bodem wel gelukt. Het kan net zo goed een grappenmaker zijn die met een drone over de luchthaven wilde vliegen, kijken of het kan. Interessant genoeg beveiligen vliegvelden zich hier niet tegen, terwijl de dreiging van dergelijke &#8216;hybride&#8217; aanvallen wel als een vaststaand feit wordt neergezet.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dezelfde VVD die meende uit de mond van Poetin te hebben gehoord dat hij de NAVO wilde aanvallen, besloot om in de jaren erna het leger verder te beschadigen met redeloze bezuinigen. De zware wapens gingen naar Finland. Net als Polen heeft dat land geen beste ervaringen met Rusland naast de deur, dus neemt het voorbereidingen. Nederland onder Rutte deed exact het tegenovergestelde, maar wil wel vooraan staan als het om oorlog gaat. Daar zit natuurlijk iets tegenstrijdigs in.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Omdat het moeilijk is om een land in zeer korte tijd klaar te stomen voor oorlog, blijft het bij symbolische maatregelen die enkel de eigen bevolking treffen. Die bevolking </span><a href="https://www.arnowellens.nl/p/een-bange-bevolking-kun-je-zo-van"><span>verliest dan bijvoorbeeld het discriminatieverbod</span></a><span>, maar wordt daardoor niet beter beschermd tegen eender welke externe dreiging. Daarvoor zou je nieuw materieel moeten inkopen en dat duurt jaren of decennia. Tegen die tijd is Poetin allang dood. Wie nu niet voorbereid is op deze oorlog, wordt dat niet heel snel alsnog, binnen de context van deze oorlog. Dan blijft het bij de eigen burgers sarren, of erger. Vergelijk het met je inschrijven voor de marathon van volgende maand, terwijl je niet hebt geoefend. Wacht dan een jaar.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Bij de discussie over het wel of niet steunen van Oekra&#239;ne in de strijd tegen Poetin, tegen elke prijs, is het goed om erbij stil te staan dat Nederland op geen enkele manier is voorbereid op oorlog. Finland heeft gedurende decennia aan een systeem gebouwd met 54.000 bunkers, waarin de bevolking kan schuilen tegen een nucleaire of een chemische aanval. Dit zijn allemaal zaken waar Nederland niet over heeft nagedacht.</span></p><div id="youtube2-4tRfqm916BU" class="youtube-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;videoId&quot;:&quot;4tRfqm916BU&quot;,&quot;startTime&quot;:null,&quot;endTime&quot;:null}" data-component-name="Youtube2ToDOM"><div class="youtube-inner"><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/4tRfqm916BU?rel=0&amp;autoplay=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;enablejsapi=0" frameborder="0" loading="lazy" gesture="media" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowautoplay="true" allowfullscreen="true" width="728" height="409"></iframe></div></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Finland heeft een bevolking van minder dan een derde van Nederland, maar kan door een systeem van reservisten in tijden van oorlog </span><a href="https://intti.fi/en/in-the-reserve"><span>280.000 soldaten</span></a><span> op de been brengen. Na mobilisatie bemannen ze onder meer loopgraven en artillerie, om een eventuele invasiemacht uit Rusland een hoge prijs te laten betalen. Als het verder escaleert is er een nucleaire dreiging en dan zijn er de schuilkelders.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Aangezien Nederland nooit in een conventionele oorlog met Rusland terecht zal komen tenzij er een leger wordt gestuurd, betekent het voor Nederland dat een oorlog meteen een nucleair conflict wordt. Daar is dit land op geen enkele manier op voorbereid. Nederland zou maatregelen kunnen treffen om de eigen bevolking wel beter te beschermen, maar het bouwen van bunkers stoot stikstof uit dus dat mag niet. Onder die omstandigheden is het misschien beter om een gematigde houding aan te nemen. In een volgend artikel (dinsdag) wordt hier dieper op ingegaan, welke defensieve maatregelen Nederland had kunnen nemen maar niet heeft genomen.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De krantenkoppen en berichten op social media ademen paniek uit, alsof een oorlog aanstaande is. Dat maakt de geesten rijp voor allerlei nieuwe maatregelen, zoals hogere belastingen en het verder inperken van de persoonlijke levenssfeer. Fico voelt, ziet en hoort dat ook en het zint hem totaal niet. Heeft jij ongelijk?</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Had u mijn laatste boek trouwens al gelezen?

Dit natuurgebied in Brabant is goed te bereiken, de moeite waard. U raadt het al, het is een Natura2000-gebied en moet derhalve beschermd worden. Niemand hier die gaat zeggen dat dat niet hoeft. Maar Nederland heeft een stikstofcrisis en maakt het zichzelf daarmee moeilijker dan nodig is. Ongetwijfeld heeft de lezer gehoord van de stikstofcrisis. Mocht dat niet zo zijn, hier is een opfrisser: waarom zit de bouw in Nederland op slot door stikstof en hebben we mede daarom een huizencrisis?</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Bij de stikstofcrisis gaat het om het effect van chemische verbindingen met stikstof op de natuur. Puur scheikundig gezien klopt de term &#8216;stikstofcrisis&#8217; dus niet, maar dat terzijde. De industrie stoot stikstofoxide uit, net als de bouw en het verkeer. Landbouw zorgt voor ammoniak, ook een stikstofverbinding. Als een natuurgebied in de buurt te veel stikstofverbindingen opneemt uit landbouw, industrie en bouw in de buurt, levert dat schade aan de natuur op. Daar is iedereen het over eens.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fmRA!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6fbd8e3b-653a-47f3-9a8d-b234b23ecd08_857x614.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fmRA!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6fbd8e3b-653a-47f3-9a8d-b234b23ecd08_857x614.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fmRA!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6fbd8e3b-653a-47f3-9a8d-b234b23ecd08_857x614.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fmRA!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6fbd8e3b-653a-47f3-9a8d-b234b23ecd08_857x614.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fmRA!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6fbd8e3b-653a-47f3-9a8d-b234b23ecd08_857x614.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fmRA!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6fbd8e3b-653a-47f3-9a8d-b234b23ecd08_857x614.png" width="857" height="614" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/6fbd8e3b-653a-47f3-9a8d-b234b23ecd08_857x614.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:614,&quot;width&quot;:857,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fmRA!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6fbd8e3b-653a-47f3-9a8d-b234b23ecd08_857x614.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fmRA!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6fbd8e3b-653a-47f3-9a8d-b234b23ecd08_857x614.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fmRA!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6fbd8e3b-653a-47f3-9a8d-b234b23ecd08_857x614.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fmRA!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6fbd8e3b-653a-47f3-9a8d-b234b23ecd08_857x614.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In 1991 nam de Europese commissie van toen nog de EEG de habitatrichtlijn aan, </span><a href="https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dir/1992/43/oj/eng"><span>nummertje 92/43</span></a><span>. Leden van de EEG beloven de natuur te verbeteren, Nederland ook. Nederland is dichtbevolkt en heeft veel landbouw en industrie, dus ook een relatief hoge uitstoot van stikstofverbindingen. Nederland belooft zelf die uitstoot te verminderen, in het kader van deze richtlijn. In de richtlijn staat het woord &#8216;stikstof&#8217; dan ook niet. Het woord &#8216;richtlijn&#8217; klinkt overigens vrij aardig, maar we hebben het hier over dwingend Europees recht. Nederland moet iets doen, onder meer een kaart aanleveren met te beschermen natuurgebieden. Die kaart staat hierboven, het zijn de </span><a href="https://www.natura2000.nl/gebieden"><span>Natura2000-gebieden</span></a><span>.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In de richtlijn (</span><a href="https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dir/1992/43/oj/eng"><span>lees hem nou even</span></a><span>) vinden er artikel 6, specifiek leden 3 en 4. Daarin staat het zogeheten verslechteringsverbod, daar komt de ellende vandaan. Als een natuurgebied (met snavelbies bijvoorbeeld) last heeft van te veel menselijke stikstofuitstoot in de buurt, dan moet er een jaarlijkse verbetering optreden. Bedrijven moeten misschien wel weg, pas dan is er ruimte om huizen te bouwen. Die bouw stoot dan wel stikstof uit, maar door de sluiting van bijvoorbeeld een aantal boerenbedrijven is dat meer dan gecompenseerd. Zo ontstaat &#8216;stikstofruimte&#8217;: de een maakt plaats voor de ander en per saldo stoot je als samenleving in zijn geheel minder uit. Bij het verlenen van onder meer bouwvergunningen moet je een adviesbureau inschakelen om dit sommetje te maken, zoals die van een zekere activist.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F3E9!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F831eaf55-5807-4141-b0fc-2f0e3ffad913_1176x881.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F3E9!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F831eaf55-5807-4141-b0fc-2f0e3ffad913_1176x881.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F3E9!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F831eaf55-5807-4141-b0fc-2f0e3ffad913_1176x881.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F3E9!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F831eaf55-5807-4141-b0fc-2f0e3ffad913_1176x881.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F3E9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F831eaf55-5807-4141-b0fc-2f0e3ffad913_1176x881.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F3E9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F831eaf55-5807-4141-b0fc-2f0e3ffad913_1176x881.png" width="1176" height="881" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/831eaf55-5807-4141-b0fc-2f0e3ffad913_1176x881.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:881,&quot;width&quot;:1176,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F3E9!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F831eaf55-5807-4141-b0fc-2f0e3ffad913_1176x881.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F3E9!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F831eaf55-5807-4141-b0fc-2f0e3ffad913_1176x881.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F3E9!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F831eaf55-5807-4141-b0fc-2f0e3ffad913_1176x881.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F3E9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F831eaf55-5807-4141-b0fc-2f0e3ffad913_1176x881.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het CBS houdt bij in hoeverre het terugdringen van de uitstoot in Nederland sinds de vroege jaren &#8216;90 ook echt slaagt, dat is de grafiek hierboven. Voor ammoniak en stikstofoxiden geldt dat de uitstoot dramatisch is gedaald: je kunt niet zeggen dat boeren en industrie lui op hun handen hebben gezeten.Tijdens de kredietcrisis ontwikkelde de regering van toen het PAS, het programma aanpak stikstof. Het doel was: de natuur beschermen, maar industrie en bouw tijdens een recessie ook niet zo afknellen dat je de economie nog verder beschadigt.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het PAS komt er in grote lijnen op neer dat de regering aan de ene kant van het land een natuurgebied met oude industri&#235;le vervuiling bijvoorbeeld kan opschonen, zodat er ergens anders stikstofruimte ontstaat om huizen te bouwen. Op die plek hoeven daar dan geen bedrijven voor te verdwijnen. De optelsom van deze handelingen moet wel steeds voor minder uitstoot zorgen, was de gedachte. Zo wilde Nederland zich aan de richtlijn houden.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>&lt;iframe width=&#8221;1430&#8221; height=&#8221;804&#8221; src=&#8221;</span></p><div id="youtube2-eOQhkr_M9s8" class="youtube-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;videoId&quot;:&quot;eOQhkr_M9s8&quot;,&quot;startTime&quot;:null,&quot;endTime&quot;:null}" data-component-name="Youtube2ToDOM"><div class="youtube-inner"><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/eOQhkr_M9s8?rel=0&amp;autoplay=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;enablejsapi=0" frameborder="0" loading="lazy" gesture="media" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowautoplay="true" allowfullscreen="true" width="728" height="409"></iframe></div></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>title=&#8221;Milieuactivist dreigt: &amp;#39;We stappen opnieuw naar de rechter als stikstofpakket natuur niet beschermt&amp;#39;&#8221; frameborder=&#8221;0&#8221; allow=&#8221;accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share&#8221; referrerpolicy=&#8221;strict-origin-when-cross-origin&#8221; allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dan komt milieuactivist Johan Vollenbroek om de hoek kijken. Via rechtszaken probeert hij te voorkomen dat bedrijven in onder meer Brabant nog vergunningen krijgen om bijvoorbeeld een kippenstal uit te breiden. Daarbij vangt hij steeds bot, omdat rechters erop wijzen dat de desbetreffende ondernemer gewoon een vergunning heeft aangevraagd. Die procedure was dan steeds in overeenstemming met het PAS.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Vollenbroek beschikt over diepe zakken. Hij stapelt procedure op procedure, maar de zaak tegen een paar willekeurige boeren mislukt steeds; die hadden hun papierwerk immers op orde. Uiteindelijk komt Vollenbroek bij de Hoge Raad uit, het hoogste rechtscollege van Nederland. Daar oordeelt men niet over een zaak zelf, maar wordt er enkel gekeken of de lagere rechter geen fouten heeft gemaakt. Als dat zo is, wordt de zaak terugverwezen. In theorie kan een uitspraak dan anders uitpakken en heeft Vollenbroek alsnog zijn zin, want neerkomt op het intrekken van de milieuvergunning van reeds draaiende bedrijven. Omdat iedereen zich aan de regels van het PAS heeft gehouden, mislukt dat.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In Nederland vinden we boven de Hoge Raad nog twee instanties: de afdeling bestuursrechtspraak van de Hoge Raad en anders de Europese rechter, het in 1952 opgerichte Hof van Justitie van de EU (HVJ) te Luxemburg. Het HVJ werkt volgens hetzelfde principe als de Hoge Raad. Zaken worden niet nog een keer inhoudelijk behandeld. Je gaat niet in Luxemburg nogmaals betogen dat je vindt dat </span><a href="https://www.raadvanstate.nl/uitspraken/@115590/201506170-2-r2/"><span>die kippenstal ergens in Aalten</span></a><span> jaren geleden niet gebouwd had mogen worden, bijvoorbeeld. De zaak is dan al tot in den treure behandeld en nog een rechtszaak gaat geen nieuwe feiten aan het licht brengen. Toch gaat Vollenbroek door, want hij heeft een plan.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gjpt!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb77dde28-9933-41b0-b855-df9090685ace_1709x882.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gjpt!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb77dde28-9933-41b0-b855-df9090685ace_1709x882.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gjpt!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb77dde28-9933-41b0-b855-df9090685ace_1709x882.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gjpt!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb77dde28-9933-41b0-b855-df9090685ace_1709x882.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gjpt!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb77dde28-9933-41b0-b855-df9090685ace_1709x882.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gjpt!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb77dde28-9933-41b0-b855-df9090685ace_1709x882.png" width="1456" height="751" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/b77dde28-9933-41b0-b855-df9090685ace_1709x882.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:751,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gjpt!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb77dde28-9933-41b0-b855-df9090685ace_1709x882.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gjpt!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb77dde28-9933-41b0-b855-df9090685ace_1709x882.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gjpt!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb77dde28-9933-41b0-b855-df9090685ace_1709x882.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gjpt!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb77dde28-9933-41b0-b855-df9090685ace_1709x882.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Hij slaagt erin om de rechter in Luxemburg ervan te overtuigen dat de vergunningen misschien wel via het PAS correct zijn aangevraagd, maar dat het hele PAS er op die manier nooit had mogen zijn.

Bij deze specifieke rechtszaak - er zijn er meer, met dezelfde strekking - moesten in Gelderland en Limburg het college van gedeputeerde staten het ontgelden. De vergunningen aan de boeren waren immers verstrekt door die provincies. MOB neemt dat de provincies kwalijk, niet dat boeren de vergunning hebben aangevraagd. Dat zou ook lastig zijn om juridisch te bestrijden. Daarom moeten de twee provincies zich hier verweren.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Tegen wie?

href="https://stichtingagrifacts.nl/friesland-betaalt-e-155-545-aan-mob-voor-behoud-afvalverbrander/"><span>een artikel</span></a><span> over de juridische terreur die Vollenbroek via MOB richting Friesland ontketende. Fijn voor Brabant, ze zijn niet de enige. De provincie wilde een afvalverbrander behouden en ja, zo&#8217;n instelling heeft een milieu-impact. Ook wilde GGD Frysl&#226;n een nieuwe locatie openen, wat voor meer uitstoot van stikstof zou kunnen zorgen. Vollenbroek stond op de stoep, of ze daar even mee wilden stoppen: anders zouden ze dezelfde behandeling krijgen als een paar boeren eerder. MOB mocht vervolgens voor anderhalve ton aan facturen sturen. Zoals STAF opmerkt is het opmerkelijk dat een activist zich tegen de overheid keert, om diezelfde overheid vervolgens wel facturen te sturen. Overigens zijn er </span><a href="https://stichtingagrifacts.nl/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Sliedrecht-hanteert-status-aparte-voor-MOB.pdf"><span>meer voorbeelden</span></a><span> van deze dubbele pet, maar we houden het even bij deze casus.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Wat er gebeurt is dat een instelling dus niet zomaar ergens gaat bouwen, maar overlegt met de milieubeweging over hoe een en ander wel milieuvriendelijk gedaan kan worden, vanuit het oogpunt van stikstof. Als </span><em><span>Wiedergutmachung</span></em><span> voor het eerdere juridische geschil mogen de milieuactivisten vanaf de vrede factuurtjes sturen. Dat lijkt op morele chantage - wel met echte facturen - waarbij opgemerkt mag worden dat de bestuurders van de NGO&#8217;s dat geld niet in hun eigen zak steken (in theorie). Op het ANBI-formulier hierboven zagen we bijvoorbeeld dat de bestuurders in MOB geen vergoeding ontvangen voor hun werkzaamheden. Als er anderhalve ton per jaar bij de co&#246;peratie of stichting binnenkomt, dan gaat dat geld naar het goede doel. Daarom is stikstofafpersing, zo noemen we het maar, geen vorm van zelfverrijking. Het gaat om de goede zaak, namelijk de planeet.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Vanaf nu gaat Friesland betalen voor advies aan adviseurs, aangesloten bij MOB. Er wordt dus wel een factuur verstuurd maar daar krijg je er als lagere overheid ook een dienst voor terug. Dankzij een </span><a href="https://stichtingagrifacts.nl/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Alledeclaraties.pdf"><span>WOB-verzoek</span></a><span> van STAF hebben we de beschikking over alle facturen die bij die 155.545 euro horen. Nota bene: dit is allemaal belastinggeld.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!L9j8!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0e048d6f-5a5a-40dd-b0ae-4c2a131ab7ef_740x409.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!L9j8!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0e048d6f-5a5a-40dd-b0ae-4c2a131ab7ef_740x409.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!L9j8!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0e048d6f-5a5a-40dd-b0ae-4c2a131ab7ef_740x409.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!L9j8!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0e048d6f-5a5a-40dd-b0ae-4c2a131ab7ef_740x409.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!L9j8!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0e048d6f-5a5a-40dd-b0ae-4c2a131ab7ef_740x409.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!L9j8!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0e048d6f-5a5a-40dd-b0ae-4c2a131ab7ef_740x409.png" width="740" height="409" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/0e048d6f-5a5a-40dd-b0ae-4c2a131ab7ef_740x409.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:409,&quot;width&quot;:740,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!L9j8!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0e048d6f-5a5a-40dd-b0ae-4c2a131ab7ef_740x409.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!L9j8!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0e048d6f-5a5a-40dd-b0ae-4c2a131ab7ef_740x409.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!L9j8!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0e048d6f-5a5a-40dd-b0ae-4c2a131ab7ef_740x409.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!L9j8!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0e048d6f-5a5a-40dd-b0ae-4c2a131ab7ef_740x409.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De bedragen doen wat willekeurig aan.

Het vervelende aan zijn werkwijze is dat hij na zijn D-Day uit 2019 niet ophoudt. Nu moeten er w&#233;&#233;r 130 bedrijven kapot. Steeds opnieuw wordt het rechtssysteem, dat links en rechts al een beetje aan het bezwijken is, belast met nieuwe zaken over hetzelfde stikstofprobleem. De rechter wordt zo gebruikt als wapen waardoor het voor een regering bijna onmogelijk is om zelf keuzes te maken. Is dat waarom er onafhankelijke rechters zijn? Daarbij is het MOB dat de rechtszaken betaalt, met een directeur die het allemaal om niet doet. Of, tenminste, zo wordt het opgeschreven. MOB is gewoon een persoonlijk verlengstuk van Vollenbroek, als je kijkt naar de facturatie. Dat is geen liefdadigheid. Overigens is hem bij een eerdere gelegenheid om commentaar gevraagd over de jaarrekeningen, waar hij niet op wenste te reageren. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Hoe harder Vollenbroek zonder vergoeding procedeert als bestuurder van MOB, hoe harder de zakken van de mens Vollenbroek vollopen. De bedrijven die nu moeten sluiten, gaan wel werknemers ontslaan en de eigenaren van hun inkomen beroven. Je richt zo economische schade aan. Dan zou het wel fijn zijn als de persoon die de trekker overhaalt, geen dubbele op heeft.

Er wordt daarbij gekeken hoe vrouwen en mannen het onderling zouden moeten doen, naar de mening van de schrijvers, en hoe ze het in het echt doen. Daarbij kijken de schrijvers naar zaken als participatie op de arbeidsmarkt en gezondheid. Als Namibi&#235; hoger staat dan Nederland, dan betekent dat dus niet vrouwen daar gezonder zijn dan hier. Het WEF maakt een score die ze willen zien, op basis van gewenste verschillen tussen man en vrouw. In Namibi&#235; zijn de verschillen in het echt ten opzichte van die benchmark kleiner dan wat het WEF zelf redelijk vindt, dus staat Namibi&#235; hoger dan Nederland. En ja, dat is een rare manier om te meten. Het rapport zegt hierover:</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><em><span>&#8216;Gender equality vs. women&#8217;s empowerment: The third distinguishing feature of the Global Gender Gap Index is that it ranks countries according to their proximity to gender equality rather than to women&#8217;s empowerment. Our aim is to focus on whether the gap between women and men in the chosen indicators has declined, rather than whether women are winning the so-called &#8220;battle of the sexes&#8221;. Hence, the index rewards countries that reach the point where outcomes for women equal those for men, but it neither rewards nor penalizes cases in which women are outperforming men in particular indicators in some countries. Thus, a country that has higher enrolment for girls rather than boys in secondary school will score equal to a country where boys&#8217; and girls&#8217; enrolment is the same.&#8217;</span></em></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Volgens het WEF mogen vrouwen niet minder verdienen dan mannen voor hetzelfde werk, dat is de discussie over de loonkloof. Als mannen en vrouwen precies evenveel verdienen en exact gelijk zijn, dan is er een onderlinge score van 1. Maar als vrouwen meer gaan verdienen is dat goed, dat is geen ongelijkheid. Ook als vrouwen het op een vlak dus beter gaan doen dan mannen, dan verbetert hun score niet, &#8216;empowerment&#8217; betekent dat vrouwen het beter moeten doen. Het gaat dus niet gelijkheid. Als er op een ander vlak een tegenovergestelde trend is, meet je die verslechtering wel, volgens deze filosofie. Daarmee wordt de positie van de vrouw altijd slechter voorgesteld dan hij echt is. Zo is in Nederland de loonkloof, het verschil in salaris tussen man en vrouw, inmiddels verdwenen. Bij de jongste generatie verdienen vrouwen zelfs meer, maar bij de oudere generatie werknemers niet. Als je het eerste negeert, de kern van de methode van het WEF, dan krijg je een vertekend beeld. Je filtert positief nieuws over vrouwen uit het geheel, iets wat de resultaten onbetrouwbaar maakt.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!M2MS!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F770bf093-74d4-4073-ae5d-9d022d0fa4ef_860x753.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!M2MS!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F770bf093-74d4-4073-ae5d-9d022d0fa4ef_860x753.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!M2MS!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F770bf093-74d4-4073-ae5d-9d022d0fa4ef_860x753.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!M2MS!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F770bf093-74d4-4073-ae5d-9d022d0fa4ef_860x753.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!M2MS!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F770bf093-74d4-4073-ae5d-9d022d0fa4ef_860x753.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!M2MS!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F770bf093-74d4-4073-ae5d-9d022d0fa4ef_860x753.png" width="860" height="753" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/770bf093-74d4-4073-ae5d-9d022d0fa4ef_860x753.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:753,&quot;width&quot;:860,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!M2MS!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F770bf093-74d4-4073-ae5d-9d022d0fa4ef_860x753.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!M2MS!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F770bf093-74d4-4073-ae5d-9d022d0fa4ef_860x753.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!M2MS!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F770bf093-74d4-4073-ae5d-9d022d0fa4ef_860x753.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!M2MS!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F770bf093-74d4-4073-ae5d-9d022d0fa4ef_860x753.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>We pakken de kaart van Nederland erbij om te zien hoe de methodiek in elkaar steekt. Linksboven zien we een samenvattend diagram op vier assen: economie, onderwijs, gezondheid en politiek. Die vier scores samen leveren een gemiddelde op en dat is de genoemde 0,750 voor Nederland. Elke score is weer opgebouwd uit deelscores. Voor economie, of &#8216;economische participatie en kansen&#8217; gaat het om arbeidsmarktparticipatie en geschatte inkomsten voor mannen en vrouwen.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het WEF heeft op subjectieve wijze standaarden bepaald die voor elk land zouden moeten gelden. Vervolgens kijken de onderzoekers wat het verschil is tussen hoe vrouwen het doen ten opzichte van mannen. Dat is een belangrijk detail: het gaat er dus niet om hoe het echt met vrouwen gaat, maar hoe ze zich verhouden tot mannen. Zo werkt 64,4 procent van de Nederlandse vrouwen tegen 73 procent van de mannen. Dat levert een score op van 0,702 in de methodiek van het WEF.  Je zou dan denken dat vrouwen 70,2 procent zo vaak werken als mannen maar dat is niet zo: het verschil in de score die u ziet is 12 procent. Dus voor elke hoeveelheid Nederlandse mannen die werken, zijn er ook 88 procent vrouwen aan het werk. Het verschil tussen 88 en 70,2 komt door het aparte rekenmodel dat het WEF zelf gebruikt.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!e_ZJ!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3e2ef787-2d2f-431a-a3bf-78802a0d242a_979x810.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!e_ZJ!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3e2ef787-2d2f-431a-a3bf-78802a0d242a_979x810.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!e_ZJ!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3e2ef787-2d2f-431a-a3bf-78802a0d242a_979x810.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!e_ZJ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3e2ef787-2d2f-431a-a3bf-78802a0d242a_979x810.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!e_ZJ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3e2ef787-2d2f-431a-a3bf-78802a0d242a_979x810.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!e_ZJ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3e2ef787-2d2f-431a-a3bf-78802a0d242a_979x810.png" width="979" height="810" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/3e2ef787-2d2f-431a-a3bf-78802a0d242a_979x810.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:810,&quot;width&quot;:979,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!e_ZJ!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3e2ef787-2d2f-431a-a3bf-78802a0d242a_979x810.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!e_ZJ!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3e2ef787-2d2f-431a-a3bf-78802a0d242a_979x810.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!e_ZJ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3e2ef787-2d2f-431a-a3bf-78802a0d242a_979x810.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!e_ZJ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3e2ef787-2d2f-431a-a3bf-78802a0d242a_979x810.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dit is een ander groot probleem aan de manier waarop het WEF rekent.

Dat wordt als een goede score gezien, omdat een informele baan beter is dan omkomen van de honger. We hoeven het niet uit te splitsen tussen mannen en vrouwen, het is bijna iedereen. Als je in Afrika ziek, zwak en misselijk bent, is er geen sociaal vangnet zoals in Nederland. Dus als je even geen inkomen hebt ga je in de informele sector aan het werk, dat kan alles zijn maar vaak wordt het allemaal niet zo goed geregistreerd als in Nederland. Aangezien er voor niemand een uitkering is, moet zo goed als iedereen op zijn minst iets van een &#8216;hustle&#8217; hebben en is er op dat vlak geen verschil tussen mannen en vrouwen in Niger. Het WEF vindt dat mooi.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Er zijn onderzoeken gedaan naar de positie van de vrouw op de arbeidsmarkt in Niger, die is niet zo best </span><a href="https://dtda.dk/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Niger-LMP-2025-final-version1.pdf"><span>en veel slechter</span></a><span> dan in Nederland. Wegens een totaal afwezig zijn van een vangnet voor vrouwen in kwetsbare posities moeten ze in tijden van nood wel iets doen, desnoods een illegaal klusje. Mannen krijgen ook geen uitkering, dus zitten beide geslachten samen in hetzelfde ellendige schuitje, wat betekent dat het WEF weinig onderling verschil kan meten. Het WEF kijkt in dit onderzoek niet naar hoe het met vrouwen op zich gaat, maar in welke mate ze het slechter hebben dan mannen. Vervolgens gooit het WEF hun eigen bewerking over dat cijfer heen en dan kun je tot de conclusie komen dat Niger het veel beter doet dan Nederland.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Niger staat in de lijst op plek 3 van de 145 voor de plek van de vrouw op de arbeidsmarkt tegen plek 102 van de 145 voor Nederland, terwijl een Nederlandse vrouw gemiddeld honderd keer zo veel verdient! Dat is het verschil in de economie tussen de twee landen. De enige manier om Nederlandse vrouwen hier vooruit te helpen, is al hun sociale rechten af te pakken. Dan dwing je ze uit de uitkering richting de informele economie en stijgt de gemeten arbeidsparticipatie. Naar deze rekenmethode is een Nederlandse moeder die besluit thuis voor de kinderen te zorgen, ongelukkiger dan een tegenhanger uit Niger wiens werkgever net failliet is gegaan en nu wel gedwongen moet bijverdienen in de straatprostitutie. Toch nemen mensen dit onderzoek serieus, maar ze zullen het dan ook niet gelezen hebben.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Maar Namibi&#235; was de koploper van Afrika, niet Niger. Dat land doet het in het geheel veel beter dan Nederland. We pakken de kaart erbij. En de trend is helder: omdat er vaak voor Nederland wel cijfers voorhanden zijn die de Afrikaanse vrienden niet kunnen produceren, maakt het WEF zelf schattingen. Voor de Afrikaanse landen kun je stellen dat je dan tenminste iets van een schatting hebt, maar je produceert dan cijfers voor Nederland waarvan je weet dat ze niet kloppen - dat zagen we net bij de loonkloof.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6dRx!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa6d499a7-f693-4ceb-a72f-a7aa1159123d_971x814.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6dRx!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa6d499a7-f693-4ceb-a72f-a7aa1159123d_971x814.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6dRx!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa6d499a7-f693-4ceb-a72f-a7aa1159123d_971x814.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6dRx!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa6d499a7-f693-4ceb-a72f-a7aa1159123d_971x814.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6dRx!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa6d499a7-f693-4ceb-a72f-a7aa1159123d_971x814.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6dRx!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa6d499a7-f693-4ceb-a72f-a7aa1159123d_971x814.png" width="971" height="814" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/a6d499a7-f693-4ceb-a72f-a7aa1159123d_971x814.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:814,&quot;width&quot;:971,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6dRx!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa6d499a7-f693-4ceb-a72f-a7aa1159123d_971x814.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6dRx!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa6d499a7-f693-4ceb-a72f-a7aa1159123d_971x814.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6dRx!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa6d499a7-f693-4ceb-a72f-a7aa1159123d_971x814.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6dRx!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa6d499a7-f693-4ceb-a72f-a7aa1159123d_971x814.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dit land in het zuiden van Afrika scoort op gezondheidszorg beter dan Nederland, met 0,980 ten opzichte van de 0,961 van Nederland.

Het land heeft geen geopolitieke aspiraties, de boel thuis gewoon een beetje regelen - denk aan gezondheidszorg. Er leven drie miljoen mensen op een gebied groter dan Frankrijk en de Benelux bij elkaar. Plek zat voor een schat een wilde natuur, maar zorg organiseren is dan een ramp. Hoe krapper het land, hoe beter de infrastructuur, denk maar aan Nederland. De snelweg tussen de twee grootste steden is hier vijftig kilometer lang en geen vijfhonderd, dus die wordt eerder aangelegd. Met hangen en trekken levert Namibi&#235; de zorg die mogelijk is. Maar die haalt het niveau van Nederland dus niet bij benadering.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Hoe komt het WEF er dan bij dat Namibi&#235; het beter doet dan Nederland? Dat gaat in twee stappen. Het WEF vindt de gemiddelde leeftijd waarop men gezond oud wordt, voor vrouwen zes procent hoger moet liggen dan voor mannen. Waarom het geen drie of negen is, niemand die het weet. Dat is het streefcijfer. Het gaat dus om de onderlinge verhouding tussen man en vrouw, ten opzichte van wat het WEF zelf redelijk vindt.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNV_!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd607e668-1497-49a1-b663-2a8245921cb9_426x361.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNV_!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd607e668-1497-49a1-b663-2a8245921cb9_426x361.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNV_!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd607e668-1497-49a1-b663-2a8245921cb9_426x361.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNV_!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd607e668-1497-49a1-b663-2a8245921cb9_426x361.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNV_!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd607e668-1497-49a1-b663-2a8245921cb9_426x361.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNV_!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd607e668-1497-49a1-b663-2a8245921cb9_426x361.png" width="426" height="361" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/d607e668-1497-49a1-b663-2a8245921cb9_426x361.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:361,&quot;width&quot;:426,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNV_!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd607e668-1497-49a1-b663-2a8245921cb9_426x361.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNV_!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd607e668-1497-49a1-b663-2a8245921cb9_426x361.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNV_!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd607e668-1497-49a1-b663-2a8245921cb9_426x361.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNV_!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd607e668-1497-49a1-b663-2a8245921cb9_426x361.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Hoe doet Namibi&#235; het?

Toch krijgt de zorg in het Afrikaanse land een betere score. Waarom? Omdat mannen in Nederland ook steeds gezonder oud worden en dat moeten we niet willen. Bij mannen en vrouwen beginnen de ouderdomsklachten gemiddeld bij nagenoeg precies 70 jaar, er is geen onderling verschil. Daarom wordt de benchmark van het WEF van 106 niet gehaald. In Namibi&#235; doen vrouwen het wel beter dan mannen, ten opzichte van de willekeurige benchmark van 106. Daarom staat Namibi&#235; op plek nummer 1 van de wereld en Nederland bijna onderaan, met plek 127, ook al hebben Nederlandse vrouwen dankzij de betere zorg hier vijftien jaar extra. Ben je dan het slachtoffer van ongelijkheid? Ruilen kan altijd.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Bij alle gemeten scores zien we dit soort rare effecten. Namibisch onderwijs is net zo goed als het Nederlandse, ook al gaan hier twee keer zo veel meisjes naar school. De gelijke score krijg je door met cijfers te goochelen, iets wat het WEF graag doet. Nu mag iedereen dat doen, maar dit rapport is vrij kwalijk. Het WEF schrijft namelijk in de inleiding dat het de bedoeling is dat alle verschillen verdwijnen, tussen man en vrouw - niet tussen de landen onderling.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!RPui!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcc46cc4d-4273-449d-a1ad-019893e8c82f_467x876.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!RPui!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcc46cc4d-4273-449d-a1ad-019893e8c82f_467x876.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!RPui!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcc46cc4d-4273-449d-a1ad-019893e8c82f_467x876.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!RPui!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcc46cc4d-4273-449d-a1ad-019893e8c82f_467x876.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!RPui!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcc46cc4d-4273-449d-a1ad-019893e8c82f_467x876.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!RPui!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcc46cc4d-4273-449d-a1ad-019893e8c82f_467x876.png" width="467" height="876" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/cc46cc4d-4273-449d-a1ad-019893e8c82f_467x876.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:876,&quot;width&quot;:467,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!RPui!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcc46cc4d-4273-449d-a1ad-019893e8c82f_467x876.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!RPui!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcc46cc4d-4273-449d-a1ad-019893e8c82f_467x876.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!RPui!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcc46cc4d-4273-449d-a1ad-019893e8c82f_467x876.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!RPui!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcc46cc4d-4273-449d-a1ad-019893e8c82f_467x876.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Stel dat we Nederland een net zo goede score op zorg willen geven als Namibi&#235;. Mannen zijn de laatste tijd gezonder geworden, door een betere leefstijl zoals minder vaak roken en beter eten. Jarenlang krijgen mannen spotjes van de overheid met die boodschap. Ze zijn nu net zo gezond als vrouwen en ontlasten daarmee de zorg. Het WEF vindt dat een kwalijke ontwikkeling. Mannen moeten kapot, volgens deze rekenmethode.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Immers, mannen doen het nu niet langer minstens zes procent slechter dan vrouwen en dus worden vrouwen gediscrimineerd - zo rekent het WEF. We kunnen twee dingen doen om dit op te lossen. Maak vrouwen heel snel gezonder, vanuit humaan oogpunt is daar niks tegenin te brengen. Het zal lastig te realiseren zijn. De andere oplossing is: maak mannen bewust ongezonder, zodat ze zes procent van hun gezonde levensjaren verliezen. Dan hebben ze een nadeel ten opzichte van de vrouw. Het rapport gaat over &#8216;gendergelijkheid&#8217; maar dat klopt dus niet: Nederland krijgt op zorg een slechte score omdat er juist geen ongelijkheid is. Als je zo rekent, pleit je eigenlijk voor heel vreemd beleid - zoals uitkeringen voor vrouwen afschaffen zodat ze sociaal zwak worden en mannen dwingen te roken.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het probleem met dit rapport zit hem erin dat er een score voor 145 landen gemaakt wordt, terwijl die niet allemaal beschikking hebben over dezelfde data over bijvoorbeeld salarisverschillen tussen man en vrouw. Dan ga je schattingen produceren die voor Niger wellicht in de buurt van de waarheid komen, maar voor Nederland zwaar afwijken van de werkelijkheid. Het WEF publiceert dus verzonnen cijfers en negeert daarbij wat het CBS gewoon kon aanleveren. Daarnaast krijgt een land strafpunten als de vrouw het niet beter doet dan mannen, gebruikmakend van een willekeurige maatstaf. Naar die maatstaf gendergelijkheid bereiken zal nooit gebeuren, tenzij je hele rare dingen doet om vrouwen op die willekeurig gedefinieerde voorsprong te krijgen. Ook zorgt de focus op &#8216;empowerment&#8217; dat je goed nieuws over meisjes en vrouwen negeert, wat het rapport onnodig alarmistisch maakt.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Tot slot mag niet ontbreken dat het WEF wordt betaald door grote bedrijven om eigen beleid te pushen.

Op zich niet vreemd of illegaal, zo werkt het in de sales. Maar een samenleving moet niet in die flutrapportjes trappen, met rare aannames en ontbrekende echte feiten en cijfers. Dan ga je je richten op een fictief beeld van ongelijkheid tussen vrouw en man. De aandacht gaat dan naar het bestrijden van dit vermeende onrecht, de eerste geluiden zijn er al.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het probleem is niet dat Nederlandse vrouwen net zo veel gezonde levensjaren hebben als Nederlandse mannen, dat is geen ongelijkheid maar juist gelijkheid. De vraag is waarom een Namibische vrouw vijftien gezonde levensjaren mist ten opzichte van een Nederlandse, dat is echte ongelijkheid. Hoe kan men de Nederlandse vrouw onder die omstandigheden als het slachtoffer zien? Aan het beantwoorden van die vraag kunnen de sponsoren van het WEF geen geld verdienen, dus krijg je deze onnodige ophef.

Kijk, dat is mooi, mensen controleren de boel niet genoeg.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NjcZ!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2d50e3af-bb46-474f-a8f9-c3a988e1e798_800x486.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NjcZ!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2d50e3af-bb46-474f-a8f9-c3a988e1e798_800x486.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NjcZ!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2d50e3af-bb46-474f-a8f9-c3a988e1e798_800x486.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NjcZ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2d50e3af-bb46-474f-a8f9-c3a988e1e798_800x486.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NjcZ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2d50e3af-bb46-474f-a8f9-c3a988e1e798_800x486.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NjcZ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2d50e3af-bb46-474f-a8f9-c3a988e1e798_800x486.png" width="800" height="486" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/2d50e3af-bb46-474f-a8f9-c3a988e1e798_800x486.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:486,&quot;width&quot;:800,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NjcZ!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2d50e3af-bb46-474f-a8f9-c3a988e1e798_800x486.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NjcZ!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2d50e3af-bb46-474f-a8f9-c3a988e1e798_800x486.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NjcZ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2d50e3af-bb46-474f-a8f9-c3a988e1e798_800x486.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NjcZ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2d50e3af-bb46-474f-a8f9-c3a988e1e798_800x486.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Wie op de bronvermelding uit het e-book klikt, krijgt alleen wel </span><a href="https://home-affairs.ec.europa.eu/policies/internal-security/new-way-forward-internal-security_en?prefLang=en"><span>een dode link</span></a><span>.

Die was in november van het jaar ervoor ingevoerd, toen bij een aanslag uit radicaal-islamitische hoek er op zes plekken in Parijs 130 mensen omkwamen en 416 gewond raakten. De meeste doden vielen in het Bataclan theater, waar toen een rock concert plaatsvond. Het theater moest al beveiligd worden, omdat de eigenaren een Joodse achtergrond hadden. Kennelijk is dat een rechtvaardiging.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Europa was in de ban van de migratiecrisis. De Duitse bondskanselier Merkel deed de bekende uitspraak &#8216;wir schaffen das&#8217;, een uitnodiging voor meer dan een miljoen migranten om asiel aan te vragen in Europese landen. Onder hen bevond zich de 24-jarige Tunesi&#235;r Anis Amri, die als dank voor de gastvrijheid met een truck inreed op de kerstmarkt in Berlijn. Er vielen 13 doden, vooral Duitsers, en 56 gewonden. De dader had geen recht op asiel, maar mocht toch van opvang genieten. Hij was op de vlucht voor Justitie in Tunesi&#235; omdat hij daar een vrachtwagen had gestolen.

Ze is een cruciaal persoon, als het gaat om de vraag wie de voor Nederland relevante wetten maakt. In het Europees parlement kan een volksvertegenwoordiger geen wetsvoorstellen indienen. Een Eurocommisaris maakt daarom via voorzitter Metsola een deal, om een bepaald onderwerp als een digitale euro doorgang te kunnen laten vinden. Het maken van deze deals gebeurt achter gesloten deuren, waardoor je vragen kunt stellen bij het democratisch gehalte van de procedure. In de Nederlandse Tweede Kamer zijn vergaderingen wel openbaar, maar dat instituut gaat inmiddels nergens meer over. Het is allemaal grotendeels overgeheveld naar Brussel. Want volgens Metsola moet je &#8216;de moed hebben om grote stappen te zetten&#8217;.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s_DM!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F33a124f3-5583-4238-a3b2-72910f05b6df_548x590.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s_DM!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F33a124f3-5583-4238-a3b2-72910f05b6df_548x590.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s_DM!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F33a124f3-5583-4238-a3b2-72910f05b6df_548x590.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s_DM!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F33a124f3-5583-4238-a3b2-72910f05b6df_548x590.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s_DM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F33a124f3-5583-4238-a3b2-72910f05b6df_548x590.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s_DM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F33a124f3-5583-4238-a3b2-72910f05b6df_548x590.png" width="548" height="590" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/33a124f3-5583-4238-a3b2-72910f05b6df_548x590.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:590,&quot;width&quot;:548,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s_DM!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F33a124f3-5583-4238-a3b2-72910f05b6df_548x590.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s_DM!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F33a124f3-5583-4238-a3b2-72910f05b6df_548x590.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s_DM!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F33a124f3-5583-4238-a3b2-72910f05b6df_548x590.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s_DM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F33a124f3-5583-4238-a3b2-72910f05b6df_548x590.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Nu zouden we kunnen kijken wat er in tien jaar is gedaan met betrekking tot migratie.

We lezen dat er een &#8216;Cyber Solidarity Act&#8217; is. Dat is een manier om lidstaten te helpen informatie over incidenten met betrekking tot hacken en data-lekken te delen. Bij dit soort maatregelen stelt de commissie regels op waar lidstaten zich aan kunnen houden en waar ze ook over meepraten. Als landen toch besluiten om vrienden te zijn, kunnen ze besluiten elkaar te helpen met informatie over cyberdreigingen en die op uniforme wijze aanbieden. Dit is niet heel heftig te noemen, of schadelijk: hoe eurosceptisch je wel of niet bent.

van kindermisbruik (CSAM). Ook hier mogen we constateren dat de tekst van het wetsvoorstel zo is opgeschreven dat iedereen voorstander is. Het gaat hier dus niet om de vraag of je CSAM moet aanpakken, maar hoe. Zijn maatregelen wel proportioneel, loop je niet de kans alleen maar onschuldigen ten onrechte te stigmatiseren? Voorstanders van knetterhard beleid - het is inderdaad een gevoelig onderwerp - zullen zich ook realiseren dat ondoelmatig of anderszins verkeerd beleid geen rechtvaardiging dient. Je zet dan schaarse middelen in die het doel niet dienen, namelijk kinderen beschermen. Doe het dan goed.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pPQp!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd5deed7e-e389-4f10-b840-8e296daf8c7f_600x543.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pPQp!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd5deed7e-e389-4f10-b840-8e296daf8c7f_600x543.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pPQp!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd5deed7e-e389-4f10-b840-8e296daf8c7f_600x543.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pPQp!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd5deed7e-e389-4f10-b840-8e296daf8c7f_600x543.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pPQp!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd5deed7e-e389-4f10-b840-8e296daf8c7f_600x543.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pPQp!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd5deed7e-e389-4f10-b840-8e296daf8c7f_600x543.png" width="600" height="543" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/d5deed7e-e389-4f10-b840-8e296daf8c7f_600x543.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:543,&quot;width&quot;:600,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pPQp!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd5deed7e-e389-4f10-b840-8e296daf8c7f_600x543.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pPQp!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd5deed7e-e389-4f10-b840-8e296daf8c7f_600x543.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pPQp!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd5deed7e-e389-4f10-b840-8e296daf8c7f_600x543.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pPQp!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd5deed7e-e389-4f10-b840-8e296daf8c7f_600x543.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De EU zet in op Chat Control.

Dat is dus een voorbeeld van de crisismentaliteit: het moet allemaal maar kunnen.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!dZQK!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fef7a11fc-9124-437c-9991-daf85ff897ec_775x793.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!dZQK!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fef7a11fc-9124-437c-9991-daf85ff897ec_775x793.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!dZQK!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fef7a11fc-9124-437c-9991-daf85ff897ec_775x793.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!dZQK!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fef7a11fc-9124-437c-9991-daf85ff897ec_775x793.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!dZQK!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fef7a11fc-9124-437c-9991-daf85ff897ec_775x793.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!dZQK!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fef7a11fc-9124-437c-9991-daf85ff897ec_775x793.png" width="775" height="793" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/ef7a11fc-9124-437c-9991-daf85ff897ec_775x793.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:793,&quot;width&quot;:775,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!dZQK!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fef7a11fc-9124-437c-9991-daf85ff897ec_775x793.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!dZQK!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fef7a11fc-9124-437c-9991-daf85ff897ec_775x793.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!dZQK!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fef7a11fc-9124-437c-9991-daf85ff897ec_775x793.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!dZQK!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fef7a11fc-9124-437c-9991-daf85ff897ec_775x793.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dan zijn er nog maatregelen waarbij de commissie wel slechts een co&#246;rdinerende rol heeft, in plaats van dat er wetten worden doorgeduwd die een meerderheid niet wil. Inzake migratie is er een &#8216;police cooperation package&#8217; bijvoorbeeld. De &#8216;Security Union&#8217; is ingesteld wegens terroristen die grenzen oversteken om aanslagen te plegen en dit is het magere resultaat met betrekking tot waar het allemaal begon. Het grootste deel van de maatregelen betreft repressie van de eigen burger, niet het beschermen van die burger tegen bedreigingen van buitenaf.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Veel van de maatregelen vallen onder de Digital Services Act (DSA). De commissie ziet het internet als een markt met vraag en aanbod. Zo is het lezen van een journalistiek artikel eigenlijk ook het aanbieden van een digitale dienst. Een ethisch onderwerp - wat mag een journalist wel en niet - wordt zo platgeslagen tot een commerci&#235;le discussie.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Content die volgens de DSA illegaal is, kan nu offline gehaald worden. Daartoe zijn er 70 organisaties gecertificeerd tot &#8216;Trusted Flagger&#8217;. Als je iets op het internet ziet gebeuren dat illegaal is, kan het hostingbedrijf </span><a href="https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/trusted-flaggers-under-dsa"><span>verplicht worden</span></a><span> het offline te halen. Nu is een van de aangewezen &#8216;flaggers&#8217; het Duitse HateAid. De oprichter, de Duitse journaliste Anna-Lena von Hodenberg, is van mening dat er een </span><a href="https://www.change-magazin.de/de/warum-muessen-wir-soziale-medien-staerker-regulieren"><span>verplichte certificering</span></a><span> moet komen voor alle online content, </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHqXiXeSdho"><span>zoals TNO dat ook met brommerhelmen doet</span></a><span>. Verder heeft ze een hekel aan Trump en Brexit. Moet kunnen, erg neutraal komt het niet over.Het gevaar bestaat zo wel dat vooral content uit bepaalde hoeken eerder als onrechtmatig wordt aangemeld dan andere. Dit is nu precies een discussie die je in de lidstaat had kunnen organiseren, in plaats van dat Brussel met dwang verplichtingen oplegt.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!73YG!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F40591f32-0cf1-42ce-9355-2c3060e4cebf_474x388.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!73YG!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F40591f32-0cf1-42ce-9355-2c3060e4cebf_474x388.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!73YG!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F40591f32-0cf1-42ce-9355-2c3060e4cebf_474x388.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!73YG!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F40591f32-0cf1-42ce-9355-2c3060e4cebf_474x388.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!73YG!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F40591f32-0cf1-42ce-9355-2c3060e4cebf_474x388.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!73YG!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F40591f32-0cf1-42ce-9355-2c3060e4cebf_474x388.png" width="474" height="388" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/40591f32-0cf1-42ce-9355-2c3060e4cebf_474x388.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:388,&quot;width&quot;:474,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!73YG!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F40591f32-0cf1-42ce-9355-2c3060e4cebf_474x388.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!73YG!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F40591f32-0cf1-42ce-9355-2c3060e4cebf_474x388.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!73YG!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F40591f32-0cf1-42ce-9355-2c3060e4cebf_474x388.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!73YG!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F40591f32-0cf1-42ce-9355-2c3060e4cebf_474x388.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De DSA noemt in artikel 36 lid 2 hoe er kan worden opgetreden in tijden van &#8216;crisis&#8217;. Daaronder verstaat men: &#8220;Buitengewone omstandigheden die leiden tot een ernstige bedreiging van de openbare veiligheid of de volksgezondheid in de Unie of in belangrijke delen daarvan.&#8221;</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Als daar sprake van is, heeft de commissie meer macht, met noodmaatregelen. Content kan dan eerder offline worden gehaald. De geestelijk vader van deze constructie is de Fransman Thierry Breton. Hij ziet de migratiecrisis in Ceuta als een &#8216;buitengewone omstandigheid&#8217; die sterker ingrijpen rechtvaardigt. Volgens hem is er via social media desinformatie verspreid, waardoor tienduizenden migranten zwemmend in Ceuta aankwamen. Die crisis is een Europees probleem en de EU heeft dit artikel 36: een en een is twee, gebruiken die noodmaatregelen uit de DSA!</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Als deze lezing van Breton klopt en &#8216;desinformatie&#8217; of een &#8216;hybride aanval&#8217; zijn de oorzaak van het probleem, dan mogen we ons wel realiseren dat dit een probleem was onder vooral Marokkaanse gebruikers van social media. De digitale teugels in Nederland aantrekken heeft geen enkele zin, als de zwemmers hier niet vandaan kwamen.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dergelijke nuances doen er tegenwoordig niet meer toe. Er is crisis. Aanslagen, de tanks van Poetin, klimaat en dan valt er ook nog een virus van een vleermuis. We zijn bang! Tijdens een crisis moeten burgers maar accepteren dat de overheid een noodmaatregel invoert, zeker in digitale zin. Zo wil de overheid van elke burger </span><a href="https://www.arnowellens.nl/p/een-bange-bevolking-kun-je-zo-van"><span>ras en seksuele voorkeur registreren</span></a><span> vanwege Poetin (?). De voorgestelde maatregel blijkt vervolgens in alle redelijkheid op geen enkele manier een remedie voor het probleem waar de discussie mee begon. Bijzonder genoeg accepteert een Europese meerderheid de maatregel, terwijl het probleem zelf - ongecontroleerde migratie - niet aangepakt wordt.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Wel de beloftes, betutteling, of zelfs digitale onderdrukking, maar geen maatregelen waar je iets aan hebt. Wat je dan overhoudt, is een samenleving met teleurgestelde burgers die steeds radicaler wordt. De remedie is simpel maar niet makkelijk. Stop met het accepteren van crisismaatregelen. Die zijn niet tijdelijk, eenmaal ingevoerd kom je er niet zo snel meer vanaf. De verkondigers van het crisisgevoel, zoals Kutcher en Breton, zullen sceptici dan bombarderen met halve waarheden die de urgentie  uitleggen. Net als bij de pandemie buigt een meerderheid vervolgens maar, om daar later spijt van te krijgen.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Daarom, hou bij een volgende crisis, van welke aard dan ook, het hoofd koel. We gaan niet morgen dood, uitzonderingen daargelaten. Morgen gaat de zon gewoon weer op en krijg je dezelfde rekeningen op de deurmat, misschien iets hoger. Wie om het hardst schreeuwt dat het abnormale normaal moet worden, heeft vaak een andere agenda.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Had u mijn laatste boek trouwens al gelezen?

Bij de start van de pandemie konden ze tegen bijna nul procent lenen. Door de recessie volgden er nog meer stimulerende maatregelen. Er kwam inflatie en de ECB reageerde met een renteverhoging, naar 4 procent in september 2023. Het was een unicum, want sinds 2008 is de ECB </span><a href="https://www.ecb.europa.eu/stats/policy_and_exchange_rates/key_ecb_interest_rates/html/index.en.html"><span>alleen maar aan het stimuleren</span></a><span> met een lagere rente.

Leuk he, korte antwoorden? Dan volgt nu de nuance. Voor de mensen die nog zijn gebleven, de ophef van de week betreft een speech van de voorzitter van de Europese Commissie (EC) bij de Franse ondernemersclub Rencontre des Entrepreneurs de France. Dus we zeggen er meteen bij: het is maar een speech, maar achter die speech zitten ook concrete beleidsvoorstellen.</span></p><div id="youtube2-SFW0Q0GjzVU" class="youtube-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;videoId&quot;:&quot;SFW0Q0GjzVU&quot;,&quot;startTime&quot;:null,&quot;endTime&quot;:null}" data-component-name="Youtube2ToDOM"><div class="youtube-inner"><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/SFW0Q0GjzVU?rel=0&amp;autoplay=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;enablejsapi=0" frameborder="0" loading="lazy" gesture="media" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowautoplay="true" allowfullscreen="true" width="728" height="409"></iframe></div></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Makkelijk is het niet, als kind van het Germaanse taalgebied, de speech in het Frans houden.

Weet dan dat er een </span><a href="https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/api/files/document/print/en/speech_26_1765/SPEECH_26_1765_EN.pdf"><span>Engelse vertaling</span></a><span> is. Volgens menigeen is dit een poging om spaargeld te onteigenen: dat zou &#8216;lui&#8217; zijn en niet werken om investeringen in Europese projecten voor het klimaat en defensie te ondersteunen. Dat is het idee achter &#8216;The Savings and Investment Union&#8217; (SIU).

De eerste is oneerlijke concurrentie door China, al noemt ze het uit diplomatieke wijsheid niet zo. De tweede uitdaging, en daar begint het, is de vraag hoe &#8216;onze economie&#235;n&#8217; gefinancierd moeten worden. Dat is een bijzondere vraag, want lidstaten van de EU omarmen het principe van een vrije markt. Europeanen kunnen vrij handelen, maar de staat laat burgers en bedrijven waar mogelijk met rust en de EU heeft helemaal een beperkte rol.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Volgens Europees recht moet de EU en daarmee de EC enkel handel faciliteren en verder niets. Het &#8216;financieren van economie&#235;n&#8217; is toch echt iets dat mensen zelf moeten doen. De derde uitdaging die ze noemt is net zo tastbaar als de eerste: de Europese interne markt kent nog steeds allemaal hobbels. Dan volgen er nog drie &#8216;uitdagingen&#8217;, die ook met AI te maken hebben - het is allemaal waar. Lang verhaal kort: de pijn rondom het roven spaargeld zit in het tweede aspect, hoe gaan we het betalen?</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ymh7!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F35dfc064-9ce7-455e-858c-e5121fd6485f_828x439.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ymh7!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F35dfc064-9ce7-455e-858c-e5121fd6485f_828x439.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ymh7!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F35dfc064-9ce7-455e-858c-e5121fd6485f_828x439.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ymh7!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F35dfc064-9ce7-455e-858c-e5121fd6485f_828x439.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ymh7!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F35dfc064-9ce7-455e-858c-e5121fd6485f_828x439.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ymh7!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F35dfc064-9ce7-455e-858c-e5121fd6485f_828x439.png" width="828" height="439" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/35dfc064-9ce7-455e-858c-e5121fd6485f_828x439.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:439,&quot;width&quot;:828,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ymh7!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F35dfc064-9ce7-455e-858c-e5121fd6485f_828x439.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ymh7!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F35dfc064-9ce7-455e-858c-e5121fd6485f_828x439.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ymh7!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F35dfc064-9ce7-455e-858c-e5121fd6485f_828x439.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ymh7!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F35dfc064-9ce7-455e-858c-e5121fd6485f_828x439.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In de EU kennen we de no bailout clause.

Frankrijk heeft bijvoorbeeld een veel hogere staatsschuld van Nederland, het is problematisch aan het worden. De twee landen hebben samen de euro. Moeten Nederlanders nu meer belasting betalen om Franse gaten te dichten? De tekst is er duidelijk over, dat mag niet. Ook Europese instellingen mogen niet zomaar zelf geld lenen en de rekening in Nederland parkeren.

van de Europese wet: handel en ook de handel in beleggingen faciliteren is iets anders dan belegd of gespaard kapitaal afpakken. Als Europese instellingen niet zelf geld mogen lenen, dan kan een plan als de SIU ook niet stiekem een achterdeur zijn om toch Nederlanders aan te slaan met Europese belastingen. Zoals Groothuis zegt: het gaat niet over overheidsfinanci&#235;n. Toch?</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Als we naar de speech van Von der Leyen luisteren, dan zien we dat het idee van het faciliteren van handel wel degelijk soepel overgaat in hogere belastingen. Er wordt gezegd dat Europeanen tien biljoen (dat is tien keer duizend miljard, keer nog eens duizend) euro aan spaargeld hebben. Dat is &#8216;lui&#8217;, het doet niks. Waarom willen Europeanen hun spaargeld niet investeren in defensie? Simpel, dat is een uitgave, geen investering. Ze gaat er ook van uit dat spaargeld inderdaad niks doet. Dat klopt niet, spaargeld wordt via banken uitgeleend aan bedrijven die wel degelijk investeren en mensen aannemen.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In het kader van de SIU moet er ook worden gesproken over securitiseren. Dat is een moeilijk woord, maar het komt er in het kort op neer dat je een hoop oude beleggingen bij elkaar in een doos gooit en vervolgens de hele doos verkoopt als nieuw beleggingsproduct. Lehman Brothers is er groot mee geworden maar ging er ook aan ten onder. &#8216;Securitiseren&#8217; betekent dat je een verhandelbaar beleggingsproduct maakt (&#8216;security&#8217;) van iets dat dat in beginsel niet is. Het gevaar van securitiseren is dat je mensen iets laat kopen wat ze niet begrijpen. Zo kunnen Nederlandse hypotheekbanken nog steeds hypotheken securitiseren. Dat betekent dat de leningen van duizenden mensen bij elkaar in enkele beleggingsproducten stoppen, die ze verkopen aan financi&#235;le instellingen die onmogelijk kunnen weten wie er bij die hypotheken horen. Daarom kunnen ze ook het risico niet inschatten en dat was een grote oorzaak van de kredietcrisis.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dan kunt u nog steeds denken: interessant, maar waarom komt een SIU dan neer op het roven van spaargeld van argeloze Europeanen? Of, netter gezegd, die handel in beleggingen betekent toch niet dat de overheid meer belasting gaat heffen, via spaartegoeden? Daar lijkt het wel op. Merk op dat de discussie met Groothuis plaatsvond op 16 februari van dit jaar. Daarin noemde ik al dat de SIU ook over het versoepelen van de regels voor securitiseren ging. Die vorm van financieren is door de kredietcrisis in onbruik geraakt, u raadt het al. Een half jaar later komt tante Ursula inderdaad met dit plan. Had ik dan een glazen bol die Groothuis niet heeft?</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In de discussie ziet u een link naar </span><a href="https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A52025PC0825&amp;filename=250617-proposal-crr_en.pdf"><span>een Europees wetsvoorstel</span></a><span> over dit onderwerp.

Dan lijkt het er w&#233;l op dat je dit doet om Europese instellingen meer te laten lenen. En niet vergeten: als die instellingen dat doen, meer lenen, moeten ze belasting heffen bij burgers om rente en aflossing te verzorgen. Dat is in strijd met het genoemde artikel 125.

Dat argument zagen we eerder. De SIU zou daarbij kunnen helpen, in theorie zonder dat de belastingen omhoog gaan of spaargeld wordt geconfisqueerd.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Echter, als we doorlezen, krijgen we een heel ander verhaal. De EU krijgt te weinig geld binnen om bedrijven staatssteun te geven voor de benodigde investeringen in de &#8216;groene en digitale transitie&#8217;. Ook noemt Draghi dat het Coronafonds moet worden terugbetaald. Dat maakte het mogelijk om 800 miljard te lenen tussen 2021 en 2027. Vanaf 2028 mag de EC daarom geen geld meer lenen via dit middel. Sterker nog, schulden moeten worden afgelost. Dat verkleint de ruimte om vanuit Europese instellingen uitgaven te doen. Er staat een oproep voor meer &#8216;eigen middelen&#8217; in de tekst, wat simpelweg neerkomt op nieuwe belastingen. Het ene onderwerp loopt naadloos over in het andere. Een SIU maakt beleggen in andere Europese lidstaten makkelijker, wat allemaal kan zonder belasting en andere overheidsbemoeienis. De wetteksten zijn alleen een stuk ambitieuzer dan dat.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het Coronafonds noemt men in Brussel NextGenEU. Draghi schrijft dat &#8216;naar dat model&#8217; een nieuwe ronde van schuldbewijzen moet worden uitgegeven. Het is de EU die die schuld moet uitgeven, overheden in plaats van bedrijven. Het staat er letterlijk. Dit gaat over meer dan enkel beleggen.

Die stop je in een doos en die doos verkoop je door, zodat je een nieuwe belegging hebt gemaakt. Dat is inderdaad het securitiseren van schulden. Het voordeel daarvan is dat je een &#8216;diepere&#8217; markt krijgt, wat betekent dat je meer beleggers kunt aantrekken die hun geld achterlaten voor je mooie plannen. Het nadeel is wel dat je meerdere beleggingen in een doos stopt, waardoor beleggers onderdelen uit die doos kopen die ze anders links zouden hebben laten liggen. Je maakt een nieuwe belegging uit een staatsobligatie van Luxemburg en Griekenland, bijvoorbeeld. De kans op wanbetaling is bij het tweede land veel groter dan bij het eerste, daarom is de rente ook anders. Bij een securitisatie zoals een Common Safe Asset verdwijnt dat risico uit het zicht, omdat je alles op hoop veegt.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Draghi noemt letterlijk dat deze vorm van werken bedoeld is om meer uitgaven mogelijk te maken met schuld. Je kunt voorstander zijn van die projecten, maar dan gaat de staatsschuld wel omhoog. Hoe ga je dat terugbetalen? Burgers zullen dan meer belasting moeten betalen. De SIU maakt securitisaties mogelijk die er eerst niet waren, zoals een Common Safe Asset. Daarbij veeg je bestaande staatsschulden op een hoop teneinde nog meer geld uit te geven. Het staat allemaal letterlijk in het wetsvoorstel. Een SIU maakt de weg vrij voor meer staatsschuld. Als in dat kader wordt geroepen dat het spaargeld van burgers &#8216;lui&#8217; is, dan mag je je afvragen of dat niet het startschot is van een soort belasting. Zo gek is die gedachte niet.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Had je dit jaren geleden kunnen zien aankomen? Ja. Lees anders </span><a href="https://www.arnowellens.nl/p/de-gaten-kaag-is-aan-het-ontsporen"><span>dit artikel</span></a><span>, over hoe fantastisch Rutte, Hoekstra en Kaag de financi&#235;n hebben achtergelaten voordat ze baantjes elders namen. De staatsschuld ging door het Coronafonds met meer dan veertig miljard euro omhoog. Alleen hoeven die bedragen pas na 2028 te worden terugbetaald. Voor die tijd namen ze de benen. Dat je niet vertelt hoe een schuld wordt terugbetaald, betekent niet dat die schuld er niet is.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In dat artikel wordt de herkomst van het Coronafonds toegelicht. In 2015 is er het zogeheten rapport van de vijf presidenten, over de toekomst van de euro. Als je een Europese eenheidsmunt wil, moeten er ook Europese belastingen zijn, kort door de bocht. Merk op dat Obama toen nog president van de VS was, het heeft allemaal niks met Trump te maken: wat je ook van hem vindt. In 2017 maakt de EC deze roadmap, met een &#8216;capital markets union&#8217; en &#8216;European Safe Assets&#8217; die ingevoerd moeten zijn voor 2025. Dat is ook waarom de discussie over Europese leningen nu speelt, niet vanwege een vleermuisvirus of een boze oranje man.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De euro heeft geld nodig om te overleven en een Europese schuld is inderdaad een manier om geld op te halen. Inmiddels horen we steeds vaker de dringende oproep om geld te lenen voor defensie via dit soort leningen, door de oorlog in Oekra&#239;ne. Ook dat causale verband is er niet. De idee&#235;n op dit vlak zijn tussen 2015 en 2017 geboren, relatief rustige jaren.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1-RQ!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f9e0efc-82ac-4e6e-959a-df48bc1e9486_662x832.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1-RQ!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f9e0efc-82ac-4e6e-959a-df48bc1e9486_662x832.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1-RQ!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f9e0efc-82ac-4e6e-959a-df48bc1e9486_662x832.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1-RQ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f9e0efc-82ac-4e6e-959a-df48bc1e9486_662x832.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1-RQ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f9e0efc-82ac-4e6e-959a-df48bc1e9486_662x832.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1-RQ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f9e0efc-82ac-4e6e-959a-df48bc1e9486_662x832.png" width="662" height="832" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/5f9e0efc-82ac-4e6e-959a-df48bc1e9486_662x832.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:832,&quot;width&quot;:662,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1-RQ!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f9e0efc-82ac-4e6e-959a-df48bc1e9486_662x832.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1-RQ!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f9e0efc-82ac-4e6e-959a-df48bc1e9486_662x832.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1-RQ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f9e0efc-82ac-4e6e-959a-df48bc1e9486_662x832.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1-RQ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f9e0efc-82ac-4e6e-959a-df48bc1e9486_662x832.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De SIU gaat dus over het bouwen van nieuwe beleggingen zodat de staatsschulden omhoog kunnen. Ook wordt het inderdaad makkkelijker om in een startup in een ander Europees land te investeren, het is allebei waar. Merk op dat Von der Leyen het ook over beter toezicht op banken heeft. Die drie argumenten worden in een adem genoemd. Wat betekent dat laatste? Het zou kunnen dat Europese landen toezichtstaken laten rouleren, dan wordt een Franse bank straks gecontroleerd door een Fin of andersom. Zo voorkom je vriendjespolitiek en corruptie rondom bancair toezicht op lokaal niveau. Dat is helemaal geen slecht idee, aangenomen dat je dan niet wederom stiekem de deur openzet voor gemeenschappelijke schulden die er helemaal niet mogen zijn.</span></p><div id="youtube2-FfW8QEqx5K4" class="youtube-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;videoId&quot;:&quot;FfW8QEqx5K4&quot;,&quot;startTime&quot;:null,&quot;endTime&quot;:null}" data-component-name="Youtube2ToDOM"><div class="youtube-inner"><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/FfW8QEqx5K4?rel=0&amp;autoplay=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;enablejsapi=0" frameborder="0" loading="lazy" gesture="media" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowautoplay="true" allowfullscreen="true" width="728" height="409"></iframe></div></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Nu mocht ik hier zeven jaar geleden een prettig en respectvol gesprek over hebben met Rabo-econoom Wim Boonstra. Het toezicht op banken vanuit de EU is volgens het genoemde principe vormgegeven, hij vertelt er met enthousiasme over. Terecht ook. In dezelfde documentatie zag je toen echter al dat de mogelijkheid voor Europese schulden ook wordt genoemd. Dat is in strijd met Europees recht en het regeerakkoord van destijds, de overgrote meerderheid van de Nederlanders wil het ook niet.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Samengevat is de SIU onderdeel van de Europese Capital Markets Union. De SIU moet het makkelijker maken om in een leuke startup in een ander Europees land te beleggen. Dat versterkt de economie, zonder dat overheden belasting gaan heffen of geld op andere manieren zich toe eigenen. Het zou kunnen. In dezelfde documentatie staan verder nog eens goede dingen over beter toezicht op banken. Wie doorleest, ziet echter ook dat de EC nieuwe schuldbewijzen wil uitgeven, schuld die burgers tegen hun zin moeten terugbetalen. Nu wordt het minder leuk. Die schulden kun je securitiseren, nieuwe schulden maken met oude. Dan ga je echt een brug over. De regels rondom het securitiseren van staatsschulden moeten worden versoepeld en in een adem noemt de EC dat mensen verkeerd beleggen en sparen.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dan is het niet zo&#8217;n vreemde gedachte dat Europese instellingen naar manieren zoeken om spaargeld van burgers om te toveren tot een nieuwe bron van inkomsten.  Helemaal niet als je je realiseert dat het vorige programma dat in 2019 is aangekondigd en van 2021 tot en met 2027 loopt (het &#8216;Coronafonds&#8217;) inmiddels bijna is afgelopen. In de speech van Von der Leyen zitten er maar twee regels tussen de opmerkingen over securitiseren en de constatering dat er in 2028 een nieuwe budgetcyclus aanbreekt - ze heeft dus gewoon geld nodig.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De volgende keer kijken we beter wat er precies in de tekst staat, hoe kun je spaargeld eigenlijk in beslag nemen?</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Had u mijn laatste boek trouwens al gelezen?

Anders zouden mensen nooit op &#8216;extreem-rechts&#8217; stemmen. Die notie rechtvaardigt het wellicht ingrijpen in verkiezingen maar zeker negeert waarom mensen op AfD stemmen. Het woord begint met een &#8216;i&#8217; en eindigt op &#8216;mmigratie&#8217;. In het programma van AfD zien we bovenstaand plaatje. Er komen grenscontroles en veel strengere maatregelen, als de partij het voor het zeggen heeft. Wie na het krijgen van asiel bijvoorbeeld op vakantie gaat naar het thuisland, verliest alle recht op bescherming, bijvoorbeeld.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Nu worden er, interessant genoeg, studies gedaan naar de reden waarom mensen op AfD stemmen. Is het omdat ze genderneutrale toiletten willen afschaffen, omdat Poetin via een geheim complot het stemgedrag kan sturen, of omdat laagopgeleide kiezers niet profiteren van globalisering? De laatste hypothese is populair in bepaalde links-progressieve kringen. Die arme kiezers zijn eigenlijk het slachtoffer maar het is jammer dat ze extreem-rechts stemmen, want andere partijen hebben wel het beste voor met lager opgeleiden.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het d&#233;dain spat er vanaf. </span><a href="https://www.merkur.de/politik/erschuettert-gaengige-erklaerung-afd-steigt-in-umfragen-sachsen-anhalt-wahlstudie-zr-94447054.html"><span>Maar klopt het ook</span></a><span>? Onderzoekers van de Aix-Marseille Universit&#233; publiceerden een interessante studie met 4519 subjecten - dat zijn dus mensen. Er werd gepoogd om te verklaren waarom mensen AfD stemmen, met als mogelijke oorzaken: opleiding, algemeen welbehagen, zorgen om de financi&#235;n, zorgen om de economie en zorgen om migratie. Bij regressieanalyse krijgen we altijd een lijst met zogeheten co&#235;ffici&#235;nten. Die horen bij een variabele. Hoe hoger het co&#235;ffici&#235;nt, hoe hoger de specifieke factor bijdraagt aan het onderwerp van onderzoek - in dit geval de vraag of men wel of geen AfD stemt.

In 2014 was het opleidingsniveau zelfs nog licht positief, wat betekent dat academisch geschoolde Duitsers juist eerder AfD zouden stemmen. Nu is die factor negatief geworden.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Veel heftiger is de mate waarin migratie het debat domineert. In 2015 was de co&#235;ffici&#235;nt 1,6 en het jaar erop 2,9, bijna het dubbele. In die periode deed toenmalig kanselier Merkel de bekende uitspraak &#8216;wir schaffen das&#8217; en kwamen er in korte tijd meer dan een miljoen mensen naar Duitsland. De opvang was rommelig en in de chaos steeg de criminaliteit. Ook als mensen de criminaliteit niet zelf ervaren, zijn ze geneigd vaker AfD te stemmen: gewoon door wat ze op het journaal zien. Richting 2022 daalde de waarde naar 1,9 maar met de komst van grote groepen Oekra&#239;eners verdubbelde het co&#235;ffici&#235;nt weer. We kunnen er dingen van vinden, maar het beeld is helder. Zorgen om migratie is de reden waarom Duitsers AfD stemmen. Wil je dat dat stopt, dan moet de instroom verminderen. Meer smaken zijn er niet.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!t5iI!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe056b306-572f-4474-b0f4-c485fe02c31a_875x625.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!t5iI!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe056b306-572f-4474-b0f4-c485fe02c31a_875x625.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!t5iI!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe056b306-572f-4474-b0f4-c485fe02c31a_875x625.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!t5iI!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe056b306-572f-4474-b0f4-c485fe02c31a_875x625.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!t5iI!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe056b306-572f-4474-b0f4-c485fe02c31a_875x625.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!t5iI!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe056b306-572f-4474-b0f4-c485fe02c31a_875x625.png" width="875" height="625" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/e056b306-572f-4474-b0f4-c485fe02c31a_875x625.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:625,&quot;width&quot;:875,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!t5iI!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe056b306-572f-4474-b0f4-c485fe02c31a_875x625.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!t5iI!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe056b306-572f-4474-b0f4-c485fe02c31a_875x625.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!t5iI!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe056b306-572f-4474-b0f4-c485fe02c31a_875x625.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!t5iI!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe056b306-572f-4474-b0f4-c485fe02c31a_875x625.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Saksen-Anhalt ligt iets ten oosten van het midden van Duitsland, tussen Hannover en Berlijn.

Het is een vorm van geld &#8216;zonder winst&#8217;, CBDC is niet de vervanger van contant geld en bovendien is het helemaal niet programmeerbaar. Het eerste aspect (&#8216;geld zonder winst&#8217; bespraken we </span><a href="https://www.arnowellens.nl/p/drie-grote-fouten-bij-nieuwsuur-over"><span>de vorige keer</span></a><span>. U raadt het al, die stelling klopt niet helemaal - of helemaal niet. Programmeerbaarheid is voor de volgende keer. Voor nu: is CBDC de vervanger van contant geld?</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het korte antwoord is dat de ECB dit in offici&#235;le publicaties ontkent. Maar het is iets ingewikkelder, natuurlijk. CBDC is een vorm van geld die wordt uitgebracht boven op geld dat er al is: de pinpassen van de particuliere banken en het contante geld van de centrale banken. Door daar een derde vorm aan toe te voegen, wordt de bestaande balans natuurlijk omgegooid. Vergelijk CBDC met een enorm roofdier uit verre landen dat ergens anders wordt gedumpt, een tijger op de Veluwe bijvoorbeeld. Er staat dan nergens in de wet dat de al aanwezige wolf niet nog steeds af en toe een hert mag eten, maar reken maar dat de wereld van de wolf verandert.

De Coronapandemie werd genoemd, want in theorie kun je met een digitale euro contactloos betalen. Een bijzonder argument, want dat kon al. De ECB noemt dat China alle bankbiljetten zelfs in een wasmachine heeft gedaan, zodat gevaarlijke vleermuisvirussen worden ge&#235;limineerd. Enkele doctoren in de eigen omgeving moesten lachen om dit verband, zo werken virussen niet. Het laat zien dat de ECB in 2020 reageert op zeer recente gebeurtenissen, maar de vier jaren presidentschap onder Trump worden desalniettemin nergens aangehaald. Daar heeft het dus niets mee te maken. En als het de bedoeling is dat een digitale euro helpt tegen een virus omdat het een vorm van contactloos betalen is, anders dan betalen met contant geld, dan zeg je eigenlijk dat CDBC cash moet vervangen.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QOk1!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0fd0dd85-f888-4e47-9093-9c6c85b0ed9f_858x347.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QOk1!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0fd0dd85-f888-4e47-9093-9c6c85b0ed9f_858x347.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QOk1!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0fd0dd85-f888-4e47-9093-9c6c85b0ed9f_858x347.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QOk1!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0fd0dd85-f888-4e47-9093-9c6c85b0ed9f_858x347.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QOk1!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0fd0dd85-f888-4e47-9093-9c6c85b0ed9f_858x347.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QOk1!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0fd0dd85-f888-4e47-9093-9c6c85b0ed9f_858x347.png" width="858" height="347" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/0fd0dd85-f888-4e47-9093-9c6c85b0ed9f_858x347.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:347,&quot;width&quot;:858,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QOk1!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0fd0dd85-f888-4e47-9093-9c6c85b0ed9f_858x347.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QOk1!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0fd0dd85-f888-4e47-9093-9c6c85b0ed9f_858x347.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QOk1!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0fd0dd85-f888-4e47-9093-9c6c85b0ed9f_858x347.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QOk1!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0fd0dd85-f888-4e47-9093-9c6c85b0ed9f_858x347.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het rapport noemt een aantal argumenten voor een digitale euro die voor veel sceptici niet al te indrukwekkend zullen zijn.

Dat zou betekenen dat het risico bestaat dat mensen grote sommen geld wegboeken bij het bestaande bankwezen. EenVandaag noemt terecht dat dat voorkomen zal worden met een limiet. In het huidige wetsvoorstel mag een burger maar drieduizend euro in CBDC bezitten. In een heel mensenleven is dat niet veel geld. De digitale euro wordt dus een vorm van geld waarmee niet gespaard kan worden, terwijl dat een kernfunctie van geld is. Zo weet je dat het flopt.. Verder wordt er nog voorgesteld dat landen buiten Europa het ook gaan gebruiken, denk aan de voormalige Franse koloni&#235;n.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SgaZ!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F685d8660-2d6a-44e1-94ed-c5361958d4b9_863x881.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SgaZ!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F685d8660-2d6a-44e1-94ed-c5361958d4b9_863x881.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SgaZ!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F685d8660-2d6a-44e1-94ed-c5361958d4b9_863x881.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SgaZ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F685d8660-2d6a-44e1-94ed-c5361958d4b9_863x881.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SgaZ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F685d8660-2d6a-44e1-94ed-c5361958d4b9_863x881.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SgaZ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F685d8660-2d6a-44e1-94ed-c5361958d4b9_863x881.png" width="863" height="881" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/685d8660-2d6a-44e1-94ed-c5361958d4b9_863x881.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:881,&quot;width&quot;:863,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SgaZ!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F685d8660-2d6a-44e1-94ed-c5361958d4b9_863x881.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SgaZ!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F685d8660-2d6a-44e1-94ed-c5361958d4b9_863x881.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SgaZ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F685d8660-2d6a-44e1-94ed-c5361958d4b9_863x881.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SgaZ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F685d8660-2d6a-44e1-94ed-c5361958d4b9_863x881.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Scenario vier noemt dat de ECB een digitale euro kan gebruiken om meer middelen voor monetair beleid te hebben. Dat betekent dat de centrale bank met de rente de economie stimuleert of afremt. Dat werkt als volgt.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Als de economie in een recessie zit, dan kan de ECB de rente verlagen. Lenen wordt dan goedkoper. Mensen zullen minder sparen en meer uitgeven, want de beloning voor sparen (rente) wordt kleiner. Investeren met geleend geld wordt goedkoper en als bedrijven dat vaker doen, daalt ook de werkloosheid. De lagere rente werkt dus tegen een gebrek aan economische activiteit en werkloosheid.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het tegenovergestelde is ook waar. Als de economie te hard draait, consumeren mensen meer goederen en diensten dan er zijn. De prijzen lopen op, dat is inflatie. De ECB laat dan de rente stijgen. Mensen zullen meer sparen en bepaalde investeringen blijven voorlopig uit. De inflatie blijft binnen de perken maar het levert natuurlijk wel economische schade op. De centrale bank moet daarin een keuze maken en kan het eigenlijk nooit goed doen.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Als we de rente van de ECB (blauw) naast de inflatie in Nederland (oranje) zetten, dan blijkt dit economisch principe te bestaan. Rond 2003 en 2007 was er te veel inflatie (oranje). De ECB kan dit van een afstandje zien aankomen en grijpt van tevoren in met hogere rente. We zien dat de pieken in de inflatie (oranje) vergezeld worden van een blauwe, hogere rente. Dat is de remedie tegen inflatie. Deze cijfers komen van het CBS en DNB, dit is simpelweg de grafiek die je krijgt als je de lijnen naast elkaar zet.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xmfi!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcd2f15c3-1360-4002-a503-14460366496a_666x416.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xmfi!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcd2f15c3-1360-4002-a503-14460366496a_666x416.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xmfi!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcd2f15c3-1360-4002-a503-14460366496a_666x416.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xmfi!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcd2f15c3-1360-4002-a503-14460366496a_666x416.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xmfi!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcd2f15c3-1360-4002-a503-14460366496a_666x416.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xmfi!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcd2f15c3-1360-4002-a503-14460366496a_666x416.png" width="666" height="416" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/cd2f15c3-1360-4002-a503-14460366496a_666x416.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:416,&quot;width&quot;:666,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xmfi!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcd2f15c3-1360-4002-a503-14460366496a_666x416.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xmfi!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcd2f15c3-1360-4002-a503-14460366496a_666x416.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xmfi!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcd2f15c3-1360-4002-a503-14460366496a_666x416.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xmfi!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcd2f15c3-1360-4002-a503-14460366496a_666x416.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Na de kredietcrisis is dit verschijnsel echter verdwenen. De economie trekt na 2011 weer aan en de inflatie keert ook weer terug, dat zien we vaker gebeuren. Je verwacht dan dat de ECB de rente ook weer een beetje verhoogt. Die wetmatigheid heet de regel van Taylor, naar een econoom wiens naam u zelf mag raden. Kort en goed moet de rente dalen om de economie te stimuleren maar daarmee riskeer je inflatie. Als die te hoog wordt, moet de rente omhoog en rem je de economie en de inflatie af.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Na de kredietcrisis die in 2007 of 2008 begon, kwam er een heftige recessie. Om die te bestrijden moet de ECB de rente inderdaad verlagen. Daarna zien we dat het beleid van de ECB verandert. Een hogere inflatie wordt niet langer vergezeld door een hogere rente, de blauwe bult is na 2011 afwezig! Dat komt omdat de ECB landen met te veel staatsschuld wil helpen met een lage rente. Het gaat dan om Griekenland en Itali&#235;, maar inmiddels ligt ook Frankrijk aan het infuus. Door de lage rente kunnen ze makkelijker geld lenen en hun te hoge schulden financieren. Alleen is in Europees verband afgesproken dat ze die hoge schulden helemaal niet mogen hebben. Europese instellingen helpen de overtreder dus, waarmee je slecht gedrag uitlokt. De keerzijde van die lage rente is natuurlijk hoge inflatie, denk aan de regel van Taylor. Wie meent dat boodschappen in een rap tempo duurder aan het worden zijn heeft dus gelijk. Dat is beleid.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In 2021 stijgt de inflatie door het scheppen van te veel geld tijdens de pandemie en de oorlogsdreiging. De ECB moet wel ingrijpen maar komt met een ingreep, een renteverhoging, die de inflatie zelf niet benadert. Ook komt de ingreep duidelijk veel later dan eerst, kijk maar naar de grafiek. Tot dat moment is de rente al tien jaar enkel aan het dalen, hij wordt zelfs negatief. Er is duidelijk een periode van tien jaar zonder enige renteverhoging, iets dat tot die tijd nooit is gebeurd. Als er tussen 2012 en 2022 een recessie uitbreekt en de ECB zou de rente snel willen verlagen, met een paar procentpunt, dan zou hij zelfs negatief worden. Kan dat wel? Bij negatieve rente krijg je ook negatieve spaarrente, een boete op het oppotten van geld. Sparen heeft dan geen enkele zin en mensen gaan uitgeven - dat is het ouderwetse idee van monetair beleid.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BhB5!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc22edaff-4337-4703-a9d6-965e6e05614b_1150x919.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BhB5!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc22edaff-4337-4703-a9d6-965e6e05614b_1150x919.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BhB5!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc22edaff-4337-4703-a9d6-965e6e05614b_1150x919.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BhB5!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc22edaff-4337-4703-a9d6-965e6e05614b_1150x919.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BhB5!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc22edaff-4337-4703-a9d6-965e6e05614b_1150x919.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BhB5!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc22edaff-4337-4703-a9d6-965e6e05614b_1150x919.png" width="1150" height="919" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/c22edaff-4337-4703-a9d6-965e6e05614b_1150x919.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:919,&quot;width&quot;:1150,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BhB5!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc22edaff-4337-4703-a9d6-965e6e05614b_1150x919.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BhB5!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc22edaff-4337-4703-a9d6-965e6e05614b_1150x919.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BhB5!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc22edaff-4337-4703-a9d6-965e6e05614b_1150x919.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BhB5!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc22edaff-4337-4703-a9d6-965e6e05614b_1150x919.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Economen hebben het in dit kader over het Zero-Lower-Bound probleem, ZLB. Lagere rente maakt inderdaad dat mensen meer gaan uitgeven en dat zwengelt de economie aan. Dat is de kern van monetair beleid van centrale banken: hoe hoog moet die rente zijn? Als hij te laag is en negatief wordt, dan kunnen mensen alleen wel ontsnappen van die negatieve rente. Dat doen ze door simpelweg te pinnen. Op contant geld zit geen negatieve rente. Vroeger zou je contant geld dat over is, naar de bank brengen om rente te verdienen. In een wereld met negatieve rente draait alles om en haal je het juist van de bank. De centrale bank kan mensen dan niet naar eigen inzicht sturen met negatieve rente. In het jargon zegt men dan dat de transmissie van monetair beleid in gevaar is gekomen.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De oplossing is simpel: schaf contant geld gewoon af en mensen zijn die vluchtroute kwijt. In het rapport van de ECB staat ook dat vooral financi&#235;le instellingen meer contant geld aanhouden als reactie op negatieve rente. Het gaat nog niet om hele grote bedragen, maar het effect is er wel. Mocht de rente een keer diep negatief worden, dan gaan mensen en bedrijven nog veel meer cash aanhouden en dat beschadigt de transmissie van monetair beleid.</span></p><div

Een digitale euro die de ECB uitgeeft, komt op de rechterkant van de balans. Daar tegenover staan bezittingen zoals obligaties. Daar wordt rente op betaald, dus de centrale bank verdient geld met het maken van geld. Zo werkt dat, interessant genoeg.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Als de centrale bank een CBDC uitgeeft bovenop het contante geld dat er al is, dan wordt de optelsom van de hoeveelheid CBDC en contant geld groter. Dat zorgt voor sociale kosten. De oplossing zit in het gelijk houden van de optelsom. Als je dan een digitale euro uitgeeft, kan dat alleen maar als er een contante euro verdwijnt. Nu is contant geld toch op zijn retour, dus een centrale bank zou die trend ook kunnen afwachten. Voor elke fysieke euro die er uit de roulatie wordt gehaald, komt er een digitale bij. Maar ook dan mag je spreken van vervanging. En dat precies met het beeld dat we eerder zagen, van ijsberen tot ZLB.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De offici&#235;le positie is dat CBDC geen vervanger is van cash. Wie over tien jaar een briefje van vijftig uit de pinautomaat in Amsterdam wil halen voor een broodje haring, zal vast ergens terecht kunnen. En de haringkar zal het ook accepteren. CBDC als vervanger of substituut voor cash betekent niet dat al die pinautomaten ineens, van de ene dag op de andere uit het straatbeeld verdwijnen. Het zal geleidelijk gaan. Als je tijdshorizon maar lang genoeg is, maakt dat voor de uitkomst alleen niets uit.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Had u mijn laatste boek trouwens al gelezen?

U weet het nog wel, tijdens de pandemie besloten ze om 800 miljard euro te lenen en het terugbetalen door te schuiven naar de volgende Europese budgetcyclus. Die duurt zeven jaar. Intussen namen ze allemaal de benen, de koene bewindslieden die ons zogenaamd langs het virus hebben geloodst:: Rutte ging naar Brussel, een ander naar Singapore, weer een ander besloot de woningmarkt ook maar te verzieken. </span></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://buy.stripe.com/14k5oggb7a7Jd9KdQQ&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Ja, ik waardeer deze journalistiek&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://buy.stripe.com/14k5oggb7a7Jd9KdQQ"><span>Ja, ik waardeer deze journalistiek</span></a></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Kaag ging zich weer met het Midden-Oosten bezighouden en </span><em><span>make no mistake</span></em><span>: haar CV is indrukwekkend.

Ze zeggen dat ze kunnen relativeren, zelfspot hebben, maar hoe meet je zoiets eigenlijk? Er ontstaat dan een omgekeerde cognitieve dissonantie en je vertelt jezelf gewoon dat je heel goed bezig bent. Veel eenpitters hebben dat ook. Je levert broddelwerk af maar je denkt dat je op het kwaliteitsniveau van een Marokkaanse zwemles opereert. Er is niemand om je met de neus op de feiten te drukken, dus ga je jezelf van alles wijsmaken. Kaag doet dat ook.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Recentelijk gaf ze nog een interview aan </span><em><a href="https://www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2026/04/17/sigrid-kaag-je-wordt-ontmenselijkt-waar-je-bij-staat-a4924882"><span>NRC Handelsblad</span></a></em><span>. Daarin had ze het over &#8216;ontmenselijking&#8217; die ze heeft mogen ervaren. Laten we de doelpalen even helder neerzetten: niemand moet dat meemaken, wat ook geldt voor intimidaties waar ze mee te kampen heeft. Daar is geen enkele rechtvaardiging voor. Lever je gevecht met woorden en zodra je maar aan het fysieke denkt, ben je een troglodiet die dit land beter kwijt dan rijk is.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Toch moeten we het over de gatenKaag hebben, het een kan naast het ander bestaan. Een slechte minister van Financi&#235;n kan inderdaad onheus bejegend worden, maar dat maakt niet dat ze ze geen slechte minister is geweest. Ze is uitgenodigd voor Zomergasten en aan het voorstukje te zien wordt dat gezellig keuvelen en dat is niet terecht.</span></p><div class="instagram-embed-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;instagram_id&quot;:&quot;DcTLZEMDjqz&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Instagram&quot;,&quot;author_name&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;thumbnail_url&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/__ss-rehost__IG-snapshot-DcTLZEMDjqz.jpg&quot;,&quot;like_count&quot;:null,&quot;comment_count&quot;:null,&quot;profile_pic_url&quot;:null,&quot;follower_count&quot;:null,&quot;timestamp&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false}" data-component-name="InstagramToDOM"></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Nu kunt u zich misschien nog herinneren dat ze het departement &#8216;blakend&#8217; van gezondheid had achtergelaten.

Dan hou je jezelf inderdaad voor de gek en met geld en schuld kan dat ook.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YI4m!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F362e2eb2-55e1-4d0a-b345-02187eee0733_475x660.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YI4m!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F362e2eb2-55e1-4d0a-b345-02187eee0733_475x660.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YI4m!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F362e2eb2-55e1-4d0a-b345-02187eee0733_475x660.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YI4m!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F362e2eb2-55e1-4d0a-b345-02187eee0733_475x660.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YI4m!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F362e2eb2-55e1-4d0a-b345-02187eee0733_475x660.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YI4m!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F362e2eb2-55e1-4d0a-b345-02187eee0733_475x660.png" width="475" height="660" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/362e2eb2-55e1-4d0a-b345-02187eee0733_475x660.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:660,&quot;width&quot;:475,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YI4m!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F362e2eb2-55e1-4d0a-b345-02187eee0733_475x660.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YI4m!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F362e2eb2-55e1-4d0a-b345-02187eee0733_475x660.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YI4m!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F362e2eb2-55e1-4d0a-b345-02187eee0733_475x660.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YI4m!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F362e2eb2-55e1-4d0a-b345-02187eee0733_475x660.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het leuke is dat menig zelfbenoemd kwaliteitskrant in 2023 met precies hetzelfde nieuws komt - over &#8216;de blakende gezondheid&#8217;.

We moeten het toch over de pandemie hebben, sorry. Dat komt omdat er toen schulden waren aangegaan die niet in de boeken staan. Doe je dat wel, dan gaat het plaatje er heel anders uitzien. De Europese Commissie (EC) mocht 800 miljard euro lenen en daarvoor zelf nieuwe belastingen opleggen bij burgers, ook de Nederlandse. Er is dus overheidsschuld die burgers mogen aflossen. Dat is een ordinaire staatsschuld. Omdat Brussel de belasting mag innen bij burgers via een soort BTW, hoeft de regering van de lidstaat dat niet te doen. Afgesproken is dat de 800 miljard aan schuld daarom ook geen staatsschuld is die op lidstaat drukt. Alleen zijn het wel dezelfde burgers die mogen lappen. Door deze truc ontstond ook de mogelijkheid om de lening uit te smeren tot ver na de pandemie, wat een enorm rentenadeel van honderden miljarden of meer zal opleveren.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het idee van een Coronafonds is in 2013 geboren, bij de eurotop van februari van dat jaar - wel onder een andere projectnaam natuurlijk. De EU zat in de nasleep van de kredietcrisis. Het was duidelijk dat de EU een zogeheten transferunie moest worden. Er was afgesproken dat er een euro zou komen zonder dat de rijke landen voor de zwakke broeders hoefden te betalen. De eurocrisis maakte duidelijk dat dat niet zo werkt, Nederland dient miljarden te betalen om de EU in leven te houden. In andere muntunies werkt dat ook zo, iedereen legt iets op tafel. Zo kun je het centrum versterken, dat dan kan voorkomen dat de boel door centrifugale krachten desintegreert. Een unie is zo sterk als de wil van de burgers om hem te redden, de boel bij elkaar te houden.</span></p><div id="youtube2-DoFeiXEW4lE" class="youtube-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;videoId&quot;:&quot;DoFeiXEW4lE&quot;,&quot;startTime&quot;:null,&quot;endTime&quot;:null}" data-component-name="Youtube2ToDOM"><div class="youtube-inner"><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/DoFeiXEW4lE?rel=0&amp;autoplay=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;enablejsapi=0" frameborder="0" loading="lazy" gesture="media" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowautoplay="true" allowfullscreen="true" width="728" height="409"></iframe></div></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De Europese liberalen - daar horen D66 en VVD ook bij - waren daarom voorstander van Europese leningen.

In 2010 hebben we de eurocrisis, die met spuug, kauwgom en plakband wordt opgelost. De EC komt tot de conclusie dat de belastingen in Nederland omhoog moeten, zodat we de knoflooklanden kunnen stutten. Op een andere manier is de euro niet levensvatbaar. De Europese liberalen komen rond 2011 ook tot die conclusie. Rutte is lid van de club maar wil in Nederland de verkiezingen winnen met een zuinig geluid en belooft dingen waarvan hij weet dat hij ze niet kan waarmaken. In 2013 gaat hij akkoord met Europese leningen. De &#8216;eigen middelen&#8217; uit die tekst zijn belastingen, bedoeld om de rente te dekken. Zo gaat dat met schuld.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In 2015 komt er een groot rapport van vijf Europese gezagsdragers over de toekomst van de euro. In 2017 stelt de EC de </span><a href="https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/ip_17_5005"><span>&#8216;Agenda van de Leiders&#8217;</span></a><span> op. Het is de bedoeling om in de volgende achttien maanden een politiek compromis te bereiken over Europese leningen. In dit jaar kreeg Nederland een nieuw kabinet onder Rutte, die beloofde te weigeren terwijl hij in Brussel goedkeuring gaf. Hoe praat je dit nu weer recht?</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Nog een feit: de EU heeft een andere budgetcyclus dan de lidstaat. In Brussel duurt die zeven jaar, toen van 2014 tot 2020. In 2021 zou er een nieuwe begroting van kracht zijn. Als je in 2017 beseft dat er fors meer geld naar de EU moet, dan heb je tot de laatste dag van 2020 om het te regelen. Het is in de EU gebruikelijk om het onderwerp anderhalf jaar voor de nieuwe budgetcyclus afgehamerd te hebben.

Dat heeft dus niets met vleermuizen, zorghelden en vaccins te maken.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3TpI!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd78af6a9-c6dd-4996-8692-418f02d9efc3_743x299.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3TpI!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd78af6a9-c6dd-4996-8692-418f02d9efc3_743x299.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3TpI!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd78af6a9-c6dd-4996-8692-418f02d9efc3_743x299.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3TpI!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd78af6a9-c6dd-4996-8692-418f02d9efc3_743x299.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3TpI!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd78af6a9-c6dd-4996-8692-418f02d9efc3_743x299.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3TpI!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd78af6a9-c6dd-4996-8692-418f02d9efc3_743x299.png" width="743" height="299" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/d78af6a9-c6dd-4996-8692-418f02d9efc3_743x299.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:299,&quot;width&quot;:743,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3TpI!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd78af6a9-c6dd-4996-8692-418f02d9efc3_743x299.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3TpI!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd78af6a9-c6dd-4996-8692-418f02d9efc3_743x299.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3TpI!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd78af6a9-c6dd-4996-8692-418f02d9efc3_743x299.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3TpI!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd78af6a9-c6dd-4996-8692-418f02d9efc3_743x299.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Grote voorstanders van het afserveren van wappies mogen zich even te rade gaan.

Het is dus een gift van Nederland aan Itali&#235;, die niets met een &#8216;virus&#8217; te maken heeft. Anders waren de uitgaven direct in 2020 gedaan, niet jaren erna.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Uit de miljoenennota blijkt dat Nederland tot eind vorig jaar 30 miljard euro </span><a href="https://www.rijksfinancien.nl/miljoenennota/2026/bijlage/9927845"><span>heeft geleend</span></a><span> voor het RFF. Daarvan zal slechts 4,7 miljard ooit Nederland kunnen bereiken, de rest, 25 miljard, is een gift aan andere Europese landen. Nederland moet dat bedrag wel lenen. Het bedrag kan maximaal oplopen tot 40 miljard euro.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De EC houdt </span><a href="https://commission.europa.eu/strategy-and-policy/eu-budget/eu-borrower-investor-relations/eu-debt-securities-data_en"><span>een overzicht</span></a><span> bij van de leningen die worden uitgegeven vanwege de pandemie. Onthoud: de pandemie was in 2020 maar het huidige MFF loopt van 2021 tot 2027. Daarom werd er niets voor de zorg gedaan toen dat wel nodig was en nu de pandemie over is mag het lenen gewoon doorgaan. Uit het overzicht blijkt dat de rente op de schuld vier procent is. Leningen mogen maximaal dertig jaar doorlopen. Dat betekent dat er tot en met 2057 een onvoorziene kostenpost is van honderden miljarden, afhankelijk van hoe er wordt afgelost.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Destijds is afgesproken dat het lenen vanwege de pandemie plaatsvond van 2021 tot 2027 en dat het aflossen begint met het volgende MFF, dat start pas in 2028. Het is alsof je met een groep vrienden naar de kroeg gaat en besluit een barrekening te openen. Je kunt nu drinken en pas later betalen. Je zuipt je klem en gaat halverwege de avond weg, je vrienden achterlatend, terug naar Gaza of naar Brussel. In alle redelijkheid ligt er dan wel een schuld, die Kaag ook heeft achtergelaten: tot veertig miljard euro en naar alle waarschijnlijkheid veel meer, omdat de rente verkeerd is berekend.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Uit de stukken van de EC blijkt dat in 2020 wel is besloten dat er geleend mag worden onder het kopje van het Coronafonds, maar niet duidelijk was hoe het terugbetalen precies zou gaan. Er moest een klimaatheffing komen, belasting op plastic bekers en er was een idee voor een digitale heffing maar het is </span><a href="https://commission.europa.eu/strategy-and-policy/eu-budget/eu-borrower-investor-relations/nextgenerationeu_en"><span>niet exact</span></a><span> uitgewerkt. Vanaf 2028 moet er begonnen worden met het aflossen van een schuld van 800 miljard, door de EU, waar een niet ingecalculeerd rentenadeel van 30 miljard op zit - per jaar. Toen Kaag minister van Financi&#235;n was, ging ze akkoord met deze gang van zaken. Omdat ze vertrok voordat het aflossen zou beginnen of dat maar duidelijk was hoe dat in zijn werk zou moeten gaan, heeft ze Nederland letterlijk met de gebakken peren achtergelaten.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Als je een schuld aangaat, dan neem je op in de boeken op het moment dat hij bindend is: niet op het moment waarop je moet terugbetalen. Dat heet in het boekhouden het voorzichtigheidsbeginsel. Wie een hypotheek heeft van dertig jaar voor een bedrag van een half miljoen bij een dito huis, zal eerlijk moeten zijn: op dag &#233;&#233;n is het vermogen nul. Er is dan wel een huis van een half miljoen, maar ook een even hoge schuld. Als iemand in deze situatie zegt dat hij in guldens miljonair is, omdat er nu al een huis en de schuld pas over dertig jaar kan worden afgelost, dan zou je dat ook niet geloven. De schuld neem je dus op als hij ontstaat, niet als je moet terugbetalen.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!btXl!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc9a1e369-645a-47e6-88fd-f280b6adc269_1038x663.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!btXl!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc9a1e369-645a-47e6-88fd-f280b6adc269_1038x663.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!btXl!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc9a1e369-645a-47e6-88fd-f280b6adc269_1038x663.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!btXl!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc9a1e369-645a-47e6-88fd-f280b6adc269_1038x663.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!btXl!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc9a1e369-645a-47e6-88fd-f280b6adc269_1038x663.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!btXl!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc9a1e369-645a-47e6-88fd-f280b6adc269_1038x663.png" width="1038" height="663" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/c9a1e369-645a-47e6-88fd-f280b6adc269_1038x663.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:663,&quot;width&quot;:1038,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!btXl!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc9a1e369-645a-47e6-88fd-f280b6adc269_1038x663.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!btXl!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc9a1e369-645a-47e6-88fd-f280b6adc269_1038x663.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!btXl!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc9a1e369-645a-47e6-88fd-f280b6adc269_1038x663.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!btXl!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc9a1e369-645a-47e6-88fd-f280b6adc269_1038x663.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In alle redelijkheid had Kaag deze schulden, met rente, ook in haar termijn in de boeken moeten opnemen. Dan was het begrotingstekort eerder negen procent geweest en was ze de slechtste naoorlogse minister van Financi&#235;n geweest. Maar er is een list gebruikt. Het is een beetje een ingewikkeld verhaal en de truc staat uitgelegd in </span><a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20140903172913/http://925.nl/archief/2014/08/12/portugese-plofbankier-banco-espirito-santo-illustreert-hoe-eu-in-schulden-gaat-verdrinken-4"><span>een oud artikel op 925</span></a><span>. Dat ging over de Portugese plofbankier. Wie dat was en wat hij deed maakt even niet uit. In het kort ging zijn bank door fraude kapot en hij parkeerde de verliezen bij de overheid. Die moest geld lenen om de boel te redden maar zag de staatsschuld niet stijgen, interessant genoeg. Het lijkt op wat onze regering tijdens de pandemie deed.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Een ding is duidelijk: als de Nederlandse overheid geld leent, bijvoorbeeld om mondkapjes te kopen, dan is dat een schuld en dat cijfer zit dan in de Nederlandse boekhouding. De staatsschuld gaat omhoog, want er is in dat jaar een begrotingstekort. Dat mag niet te hoog zijn, dus dat wordt snijden. De Nederlandse burgers mogen het terugbetalen.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De 50 miljoen euro voor de Nederlandse IC, te betalen in 2023, zat in een Europees HVP van 800 miljard groot, allemaal geleend geld. Dat is een factor 13.000. Het is alsof je griep hebt en een doosje paracetamol van een piek wil kopen maar je hebt geen geld. Je leent dan 13 duizend euro bij de bank en dat geld gaat naar hele andere dingen en iedereen vindt dat dan normaal omdat het crisis is. Je hebt dan wel een schuld van 13 duizend euro.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In de huidige situatie wordt die schuld echter niet opgeschreven. In 2011 hebben de Europese regeringsleiders besloten dat </span><em><span>als de EC de schuld aangaat in plaats van de lidstaat, de schuld ook niet in de boeken komt van die lidstaat</span></em><span>.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Daarom denken burgers in die lidstaat dat de schuld er ook niet is, dat hun minister van Financi&#235;n het goed heeft gedaan en ze geen belastingverhoging krijgen vanwege die schuld (die er niet op het oog niet is). Zo hou je jezelf voor de gek.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TdSo!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc022f04a-ec29-445f-a691-b93ef79476ea_1001x787.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TdSo!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc022f04a-ec29-445f-a691-b93ef79476ea_1001x787.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TdSo!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc022f04a-ec29-445f-a691-b93ef79476ea_1001x787.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TdSo!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc022f04a-ec29-445f-a691-b93ef79476ea_1001x787.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TdSo!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc022f04a-ec29-445f-a691-b93ef79476ea_1001x787.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TdSo!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc022f04a-ec29-445f-a691-b93ef79476ea_1001x787.png" width="1001" height="787" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/c022f04a-ec29-445f-a691-b93ef79476ea_1001x787.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:787,&quot;width&quot;:1001,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TdSo!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc022f04a-ec29-445f-a691-b93ef79476ea_1001x787.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TdSo!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc022f04a-ec29-445f-a691-b93ef79476ea_1001x787.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TdSo!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc022f04a-ec29-445f-a691-b93ef79476ea_1001x787.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TdSo!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc022f04a-ec29-445f-a691-b93ef79476ea_1001x787.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Europees bureau voor de statistiek Eurostat had destijds </span><a href="https://www.apdc.pt/congresso2019/oradores/joao-cadete-de-matos-4"><span>deze Portugese wiskundige</span></a><span> in dienst, Jo&#227;o Cadete de Matos.

Nieuwe Europese schuld gaat niet via de boekhouding van de lidstaat, als de schuld wordt aangegaan door een Europees instituut in plaats van de lidstaat. Vervolgens splitst dat instituut wel de burgers in die lidstaat de rekening in de maag dus eigenlijk schiet je er niks mee op. Alleen lijkt het zo tijdelijk dat er geen schuld is. Toch komt het terugbetalen er onherroepelijk aan, we mogen nog een kerst vieren zonder terugbetaling van het HPV - met een rente die veel hoger is dan gedacht - en dan is het gedaan. Dan zal blijken dat blaken betekent dat iets gezond lijkt, niet dat het zo is.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Kaag had als minister van Financi&#235;n destijds dwars kunnen liggen maar deed dat niet.

mislukken: begin over de obligatiemarkten. Niet dat je een date moet willen verpesten, je kunt ook niet gaan. Maar het is bij iedereen vst eens gebeurd dat de eerste ontmoeting niet voldeed aan de hooggespannen verwachtingen. Daarom moet je ook uitkijken met hooggespannen verwachtingen, maar dat terzijde. Door over een saai onderwerp te beginnen, geef je de ander een prikkel om de date af te breken met de bekende smoezen: de was zit nog in de droger, ik moet de hond uitlaten, mijn moeder ligt nog in bad, bedenk het maar. Het voordeel is dat je dan zelf niet iets naars hoeft te doen. Het onderwerp &#8216;obligatiemarkten&#8217; is een probaat middel in deze, maar gebruik anders waterschapsverkiezingen, de geschiedenis van postzegelperforatie in Nederland of het artikel dat je recentelijk in een juridisch vakblad hebt gelezen over de optimale structuur van een vereniging van eigenaren.</span></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://buy.stripe.com/14k5oggb7a7Jd9KdQQ&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Ja, ik waardeer deze journalistiek&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://buy.stripe.com/14k5oggb7a7Jd9KdQQ"><span>Ja, ik waardeer deze journalistiek</span></a></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Toch zijn obligatiemarkten spannend. Daar gebeurt het een en ander. We zien de laatste dagen een opmerkelijke stijging van de yield. Dat is de rente op de tweedehandsmarkt voor staatsschulden. Op den duur zorgt dat ervoor dat die overheden veel meer rente moeten betalen op hun schulden. Dat geld verdienen ze door de belasting voor burgers te verhogen, dat zijn u en ik. Kijk, is het toch interessant. Deze week besloot de Amerikaanse minister van Financi&#235;n Scott Bessent om zelf obligaties, schuldbewijzen, van de Amerikaanse overheid op te kopen. Zodoende stijgt de koers. Dat is inderdaad vreemd, want een overheid met een begrotingstekort moet geld lenen via die obligaties om uitgaven te kunnen doen. Je gaat dus geld lenen om een lening aan jezelf te verschaffen. Dan zit je inderdaad aan het einde van een economische cyclus, als je op dit soort gekkigheid bent aangewezen.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!INt0!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5aa1561f-ffb1-47c3-9e5d-6db5963d60d3_2048x1114.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!INt0!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5aa1561f-ffb1-47c3-9e5d-6db5963d60d3_2048x1114.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!INt0!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5aa1561f-ffb1-47c3-9e5d-6db5963d60d3_2048x1114.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!INt0!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5aa1561f-ffb1-47c3-9e5d-6db5963d60d3_2048x1114.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!INt0!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5aa1561f-ffb1-47c3-9e5d-6db5963d60d3_2048x1114.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!INt0!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5aa1561f-ffb1-47c3-9e5d-6db5963d60d3_2048x1114.png" width="1456" height="792" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/5aa1561f-ffb1-47c3-9e5d-6db5963d60d3_2048x1114.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:792,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!INt0!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5aa1561f-ffb1-47c3-9e5d-6db5963d60d3_2048x1114.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!INt0!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5aa1561f-ffb1-47c3-9e5d-6db5963d60d3_2048x1114.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!INt0!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5aa1561f-ffb1-47c3-9e5d-6db5963d60d3_2048x1114.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!INt0!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5aa1561f-ffb1-47c3-9e5d-6db5963d60d3_2048x1114.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Wat er kort en goed gebeurt, is dat de koersen van obligaties dalen terwijl centrale banken het tegenovergestelde proberen te bewerkstelligen. Die centrale banken zijn dus door hun middelen heen. Een belangrijk begrip in deze is &#8216;yield&#8217;, oftewel de rente op de tweedehandsmarkt voor beleggingen. Die noemen we ook wel de secundaire markt. De primaire markt is de plek waar beleggingen ontstaan, als een bank of een belegger direct geld uitleent aan een overheid. In ruil daarvoor krijgt de belegger een stuk papier, dat aangeeft dat de overheid belooft de schuld terug te betalen. Dat stuk papier is de obligatie. De verstrekker van de lening kan de obligatie doorverkopen aan een andere belegger. Alle transacties bij elkaar opgeteld, na de eerste keer dat er is uitgeleend, noemen we dus de secundaire markt, de tweedehands marktplaats.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span> De primaire en secundaire markt zijn natuurlijk nauw met elkaar verbonden. Stel dat je als burger je eigen frisdrank verkoopt, deze zit in glazen flessen en is een jaar houdbaar. Je verkoopt voor een paar honderdduizend euro aan frisdrank aan een beperkte groep mensen, ze kunnen het nooit opdrinken binnen een jaar. Een aantal mensen kocht de frisdrank uit speculatieve doelen, ze hopen dat het in waarde stijgt. Al snel krijgt de helft van de mensen die wel een slok neemt direct diarree. Het product is duidelijk niet goed. Wie al flessen heeft, verkoopt ze nu tegen een fractie van de oorspronkelijke prijs.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1iU2!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F446ca825-cbda-4d2a-9462-32c8140848f0_2048x1127.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1iU2!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F446ca825-cbda-4d2a-9462-32c8140848f0_2048x1127.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1iU2!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F446ca825-cbda-4d2a-9462-32c8140848f0_2048x1127.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1iU2!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F446ca825-cbda-4d2a-9462-32c8140848f0_2048x1127.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1iU2!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F446ca825-cbda-4d2a-9462-32c8140848f0_2048x1127.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1iU2!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F446ca825-cbda-4d2a-9462-32c8140848f0_2048x1127.png" width="1456" height="801" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/446ca825-cbda-4d2a-9462-32c8140848f0_2048x1127.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:801,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1iU2!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F446ca825-cbda-4d2a-9462-32c8140848f0_2048x1127.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1iU2!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F446ca825-cbda-4d2a-9462-32c8140848f0_2048x1127.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1iU2!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F446ca825-cbda-4d2a-9462-32c8140848f0_2048x1127.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!1iU2!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F446ca825-cbda-4d2a-9462-32c8140848f0_2048x1127.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Elke transactie met u als fabrikant noemen we de primaire markt: wat er daarna gebeurt, is de secundaire - al verkoopt men frisdrank natuurlijk niet zo vaak door als schilderijen en auto&#8217;s.

Alleen kijken we dan niet naar grafieken van koersen, maar van rentes. Die gaan de andere kant op. Voor de leek is het misschien tegenstrijdig, maar probeer de redenering te volgen. In de uitzending van Vuurtoren TV (?) gebruikten we een voorbeeld van een obligatie van een bedrijf uit Canada van de negentiende eeuw dat niet meer bestaat, maar het principe is hetzelfde. Als koper van een obligatie betaal je voor een rente die de uitgever (een bedrijf of overheid) belooft in de toekomst uit te keren. Beloftes kunnen ook gebroken worden natuurlijk, maar denk daar even niet aan.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kHOQ!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff7f73023-10ff-49e6-8338-52f0fa808fea_1280x1416.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kHOQ!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff7f73023-10ff-49e6-8338-52f0fa808fea_1280x1416.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kHOQ!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff7f73023-10ff-49e6-8338-52f0fa808fea_1280x1416.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kHOQ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff7f73023-10ff-49e6-8338-52f0fa808fea_1280x1416.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kHOQ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff7f73023-10ff-49e6-8338-52f0fa808fea_1280x1416.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kHOQ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff7f73023-10ff-49e6-8338-52f0fa808fea_1280x1416.png" width="1280" height="1416" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/f7f73023-10ff-49e6-8338-52f0fa808fea_1280x1416.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1416,&quot;width&quot;:1280,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kHOQ!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff7f73023-10ff-49e6-8338-52f0fa808fea_1280x1416.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kHOQ!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff7f73023-10ff-49e6-8338-52f0fa808fea_1280x1416.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kHOQ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff7f73023-10ff-49e6-8338-52f0fa808fea_1280x1416.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kHOQ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff7f73023-10ff-49e6-8338-52f0fa808fea_1280x1416.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In de terminologie van de obligatiemarkten werken we met coupons. Een staatsobligatie, zoals deze Amerikaanse uit 1976, heeft twintig coupons die de koper elk half jaar mag insturen. Dan wordt er een rente van 200 dollar betaald. De hoofdsom is 5.000 dollar. Elk jaar krijg je dus 400 dollar rente op een schuld van 5.000 dollar, wat neerkomt op een rente van acht procent. Leuk als je wil rentenieren.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Tegenwoordig gaat de handel in obligaties en het betalen van de rente digitaal, niemand stuurt nog fysiek de bonnetjes op. Wie dit maar een ouderwets verhaal vindt, komt bedrogen uit. In de jaren &#8216;70 en door de hele geschiedenis heen zochten investeerders naar een gegarandeerde uitbetaling, een vaste rente. De handel geschiedt nu niet langer op papier, maar er is nog steeds sprake van een vaste coupon en een handel die een prijs oplevert.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Een pensioenspaarder kan bijvoorbeeld een paar obligaties kopen en weet precies wat er steeds binnenkomt: hier is dat 200 dollar per half jaar per obligatie. Als hij de obligatie tussentijds verkoopt, om welke reden dan ook, ontstaat er een nieuwe prijs. Dat is de dagkoers van de tweedehands obligatie. De prijzen van Amerikaanse staatsobligaties staan onder meer op de website van The Wall Street Journal (WSJ). De bovenste loopt eind deze maand af en de vraag- en laatprijzen (bid and ask) zitten net onder de 100. De koers is steeds een percentage, met honderd procent als de nominale waarde. Als een obligatie onder de 100 wordt verkocht, bijvoorbeeld op 99 en een beetje, dan is deze in waarde gezakt. Hou nog even vol, het wordt spannend.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aiJ-!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3dbfa96d-16b9-42fb-a8b1-e1b235f169d4_1294x668.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aiJ-!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3dbfa96d-16b9-42fb-a8b1-e1b235f169d4_1294x668.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aiJ-!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3dbfa96d-16b9-42fb-a8b1-e1b235f169d4_1294x668.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aiJ-!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3dbfa96d-16b9-42fb-a8b1-e1b235f169d4_1294x668.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aiJ-!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3dbfa96d-16b9-42fb-a8b1-e1b235f169d4_1294x668.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aiJ-!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3dbfa96d-16b9-42fb-a8b1-e1b235f169d4_1294x668.png" width="1294" height="668" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/3dbfa96d-16b9-42fb-a8b1-e1b235f169d4_1294x668.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:668,&quot;width&quot;:1294,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aiJ-!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3dbfa96d-16b9-42fb-a8b1-e1b235f169d4_1294x668.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aiJ-!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3dbfa96d-16b9-42fb-a8b1-e1b235f169d4_1294x668.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aiJ-!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3dbfa96d-16b9-42fb-a8b1-e1b235f169d4_1294x668.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aiJ-!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3dbfa96d-16b9-42fb-a8b1-e1b235f169d4_1294x668.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Wie verder in het overzicht zoekt, ziet dat er regelmatig obligaties tegen 90% worden verkocht.

Het zijn dertigjarige leningen die in 2050 aflopen. Ze zijn tijdens de pandemie aangegaan, toen de rente zo goed als nul was. Wie toen 1 procent rente wist te vangen, had een goede deal gemaakt. Inmiddels is de rente eerder 5 procent. Iemand die een obligatie van 1 procent heeft gekocht, zit dus tot 2050 met een slecht beleggingsproduct. Als belegger kun je snel je verlies nemen en het allemaal vergeten, moet je de obligatie alleen even verkopen. Die handel bestaat wel, maar je zult een ander een flinke korting moeten geven. Als dit je hele pensioen was, is je pensioen gehalveerd. Beleggen in obligaties is duidelijk niet zonder risico.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Hier zien we evenwel hoe ellende op de secundaire markt de primaire markt raakt. Een obligatiebelegger kan wellicht de blauw gemarkeerde obligatie aangeboden krijgen van een andere belegger: krijg dik een procent rente tot 2050. Met de kennis van nu is dat een slechte deal, dus pas als hij vijftig procent korting biedt krijgt hij kopers. Tegen die prijs wordt er daadwerkelijk in deze obligaties gehandeld. De belegger die hem in 2020 direct van de overheid kocht - de primaire markt - maakt dus een verlies van vijftig procent met handel op de tweedehandsmarkt. De overheid is daar niet actief (in theorie). Toch komt diezelfde overheid nu in de problemen.

De Amerikaanse overheid kan nu dezelfde leningen uitschrijven tegen een prijs van 100 en een rente van ruim een procent. Beleggers zullen daar maar 50 voor willen betalen. Moet u zich voorstellen dat een priv&#233; persoon dat doet: je leent 50 voor een aankoop maar moet 100 terugbetalen, al is de rente wel laag. De overheid in dit voorbeeld moet zo&#8217;n gekke deal wel sluiten, omdat de rente intussen is gestegen. Een alternatief is: straks 100 terugbetalen, nu ook 100 krijgen om bijvoorbeeld oorlog te voeren. Kunnen beleggers dan aangetrokken worden als de rente op die lening stijgt? Dat kan, dan kom je vandaag de dag alleen wel eerder in de buurt van de vijf procent. Dat is de yield, de rente waartegen beleggers nog wel te paaien zijn. Van die yield is ook een grafiek, per obligatie. We pakken die van tienjarige Amerikaanse obligaties, die het meest worden verhandeld.

Vervolgens kan een belegger die rente wat aan de lage kant vinden, omdat er in haar of zijn ogen sprake is van een grote kans op wanbetalen. Dan is een hogere rente op zijn plek.

Laten we eens kijken tegen welke rente Frankrijk nu geld kan lenen.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!W8ES!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2e612939-be5e-49a8-b43f-77211139f7d3_1035x479.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!W8ES!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2e612939-be5e-49a8-b43f-77211139f7d3_1035x479.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!W8ES!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2e612939-be5e-49a8-b43f-77211139f7d3_1035x479.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!W8ES!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2e612939-be5e-49a8-b43f-77211139f7d3_1035x479.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!W8ES!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2e612939-be5e-49a8-b43f-77211139f7d3_1035x479.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!W8ES!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2e612939-be5e-49a8-b43f-77211139f7d3_1035x479.png" width="1035" height="479" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/2e612939-be5e-49a8-b43f-77211139f7d3_1035x479.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:479,&quot;width&quot;:1035,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!W8ES!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2e612939-be5e-49a8-b43f-77211139f7d3_1035x479.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!W8ES!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2e612939-be5e-49a8-b43f-77211139f7d3_1035x479.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!W8ES!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2e612939-be5e-49a8-b43f-77211139f7d3_1035x479.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!W8ES!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2e612939-be5e-49a8-b43f-77211139f7d3_1035x479.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het is duidelijk dat de yield van Frankrijk de beleidsrente volgt.

Als we het Franse begrotingstekort (groen) vergelijken met dat van Nederland (rood), dan valt op dat de Franse score altijd onder die van Nederland zit. In de EU is afgesproken dat landen hun begrotingstekort onder de drie procent houden. Het is overduidelijk dat Frankrijk de regels aan de laars lapt. De schuld is daardoor veel hoger en de rente vervolgens ook.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Wat we nu zien gebeuren, in de VS, Japan en de eurozone, is dat overheden er niet in slagen om de begrotingen op orde te krijgen. Dat is vooral in de grote economie&#235;n aan de hand, vervelend genoeg. Kijk nog eens naar de Franse score hierboven. Ze overtreden regelmatig de afspraak van het maximale jaarlijkse tekort van drie procent, iets wat Nederland niet durft. Maar ze proberen wel in de buurt van de drie procent te blijven. In 2020 mislukt dat compleet, door de pandemie en de maatregelen als lockdowns dalen de inkomsten terwijl de uitgaven fors stijgen, bijvoorbeeld in de zorg. Er is daardoor een eenmalig tekort van acht procent - dacht men toen. Nederland zag een fors hoger tekort door de pandemie, maar het was lang niet zo erg als in Frankrijk.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dat land krijgt zijn begroting maar niet op orde. De Fransen hielden zich toch al niet aan de regels en door de pandemie daarbovenop is de boel compleet uit evenwicht geraakt. Dat betekent dat er stelselmatig meer wordt uitgegeven dan er binnenkomt. We keren dus niet terug naar &#8216;normaal&#8217;. In 2022 gaat de rente ook nog eens omhoog. Als je dan meer blijft uitgeven dan er binnenkomt, heb je elk jaar een te hoog tekort. Dat moet je invullen met staatschuld, geld lenen via obligaties. Je gaat dus meer lenen tegen een hogere rente en dan wordt het vervelend. Het jaarlijkse rentenadeel telt op bij je schuld, je moet dat ook lenen en dan ontsporen de financi&#235;n alleen maar harder. Beleggers in obligaties worden dan zenuwachtig en gaan hun posities verkopen. Dat is wat er nu gebeurt. Hoe zit dat eigenlijk in de VS?</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rBUJ!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F12524d09-5a86-48a5-8c81-69c00e52946c_1313x530.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rBUJ!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F12524d09-5a86-48a5-8c81-69c00e52946c_1313x530.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rBUJ!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F12524d09-5a86-48a5-8c81-69c00e52946c_1313x530.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rBUJ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F12524d09-5a86-48a5-8c81-69c00e52946c_1313x530.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rBUJ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F12524d09-5a86-48a5-8c81-69c00e52946c_1313x530.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rBUJ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F12524d09-5a86-48a5-8c81-69c00e52946c_1313x530.png" width="1313" height="530" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/12524d09-5a86-48a5-8c81-69c00e52946c_1313x530.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:530,&quot;width&quot;:1313,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rBUJ!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F12524d09-5a86-48a5-8c81-69c00e52946c_1313x530.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rBUJ!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F12524d09-5a86-48a5-8c81-69c00e52946c_1313x530.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rBUJ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F12524d09-5a86-48a5-8c81-69c00e52946c_1313x530.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rBUJ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F12524d09-5a86-48a5-8c81-69c00e52946c_1313x530.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De staatsschuld als percentage van de economie aldaar zat tot de kredietcrisis rond de zestig procent. Amerikanen gaven ook toen te veel geld uit, maar economische groei kon de tekorten compenseren. Je inkomen kan harder stijgen dan je schuld, maar hoe lang hou je dat vol? Vergelijk het met een gezin dat vijftigduizend euro per jaar verdient en een schuld heeft van dertigduizend. Je spreekt met de bank af dat je de schuld over een lange periode mag terugbetalen. Dat is realistisch en haalbaar. Wat nu als de schuld ineens verdubbelt? Dan worden er mensen zenuwachtig.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De grijze periodes in de grafiek betreffen steeds een recessie. In 2008 brak in de VS de kredietcrisis uit, gevolgd door een Europese schuldencrisis. Tijdens een recessie verliezen mensen hun baan en bedrijven vallen om. De groei valt tegen, de belastinginkomsten dalen en de uitgaven stijgen, afhankelijk van het soort crisis. Tijdens de kredietcrisis moesten overheden astronomische bedragen lenen om de banken te redden, bijvoorbeeld. Je mag dan verwachten dat de schuld stijgt en dat gebeurt duidelijk ook. Sindsdien ziet het er alleen wel een beetje oncontroleerbaar uit, het is niet redelijk om te denken dat de schuld in bijvoorbeeld tien jaar weer halveert. De trend is duidelijk. De pandemie duurde kort, het was een smal streepje, maar de gevolgen zijn toch echt blijvend. En in de bovenste grafiek zagen we dat de VS niet langer lenen tegen ruim een procent maar eerder tegen het viervoudige. Je betaalt meer rente op je schuld die stijgt en dat tekort moet je ook nog eens lenen!</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IFKG!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9358c4df-9888-499a-9928-8efaa61b1de9_1313x524.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IFKG!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9358c4df-9888-499a-9928-8efaa61b1de9_1313x524.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IFKG!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9358c4df-9888-499a-9928-8efaa61b1de9_1313x524.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IFKG!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9358c4df-9888-499a-9928-8efaa61b1de9_1313x524.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IFKG!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9358c4df-9888-499a-9928-8efaa61b1de9_1313x524.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IFKG!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9358c4df-9888-499a-9928-8efaa61b1de9_1313x524.png" width="1313" height="524" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/9358c4df-9888-499a-9928-8efaa61b1de9_1313x524.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:524,&quot;width&quot;:1313,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IFKG!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9358c4df-9888-499a-9928-8efaa61b1de9_1313x524.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IFKG!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9358c4df-9888-499a-9928-8efaa61b1de9_1313x524.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IFKG!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9358c4df-9888-499a-9928-8efaa61b1de9_1313x524.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IFKG!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9358c4df-9888-499a-9928-8efaa61b1de9_1313x524.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Economen gebruiken vaak de score van de schuld als percentage van de economie, omdat dat een vergelijking makkelijker maakt. De schuld in dollars of euro&#8217;s uitgedrukt geeft immers een getal met heel, heel veel nullen dat moeilijk te bevatten is. Laten we hem er toch bijpakken. In de jaren &#8216;90 daalde de schuld in absolute zin voor het laatst, wat aan het beleid van de Amerikaanse president Clinton te danken is. Daarna, wel, gebeurde er iets anders. De schuld lijkt oncontroleerbaar hard te stijgen. De obligatiemarkten vangen de spanning op, tot het knapt. Dat dreigt nu te gebeuren.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In het derde kwartaal van 2017 bedroeg de schuld voor het eerst meer dan twintig biljoen, oftewel twintig duizend miljard dollar. Sindsdien is dat bedrag verdubbeld naar meer dan veertig biljoen nu. Dat betekent dat de VS, in 2017, sinds 1776 de tijd hebben gehad om de twintig aan te tikken, afgerond twee&#235;neenhalve eeuw. Hoe lang duurt het om vervolgens nog zo veel schuld te maken, boven op het oude cijfer? Minder dan tien jaar. In dit tempo zitten ze in 2036 op een bedrag van zestig biljoen dollar schuld, een bedrag dat natuurlijk nooit zal worden terugbetaald. Maar het is erger, het overzicht en de controle is weg.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De rente die je betaalt, ook als overheid, is afhankelijk van een paar dingen. Hoeveel schuld heb je? Het rentepercentage wordt berekend over je hele schuld. Vervolgens is het de vraag hoe hoog de beleidsrente is. Die is gestegen vanwege de inflatie. Daarnaast rekenen beleggers een risicopremie, die alleen maar stijgt als de schuld te hoog is. Dan krijg je nog meer schulden, wat ook de manier is voor priv&#233;personen om in een schuldencrisis te geraken. De jaarlijkse rentelast van de VS is van deze zaken afhankelijk en ook daar hebben we een plaatje van.

En daar hebben ze het geld niet voor, dus moet je geld lenen om je rente te betalen. We hebben het hier over een verdubbeling in slechts vier jaar tijd. Als de schuld niet snel kan dalen, waar het echt op lijkt, dan is dit een probleem waar we nog decennialang mee te maken hebben. Beleggers op de obligatiemarkten hebben dat door, raken in paniek, en dumpen hun obligaties waardoor de yield nog verder stijgt. Als centrale banken niet snel ingrijpen, kan dit uitdraaien op een nieuwe kredietcrisis. Dat is geen dramatisch gedoe, alle ingredi&#235;nten liggen op tafel.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Nu had president Trump twee dingen beloofd: hij zou geen nieuwe oorlogen meer starten en het budget op orde brengen. Elon Musk mocht helpen om ministeries en overheidsinstanties effici&#235;nter te maken. Dat is allebei niet echt op een succes uitgelopen. Trump heeft het erger gemaakt. Er kwam een nieuwe oorlog met Iran. Die kostte met gemak nog eens </span><a href="https://www.americanprogress.org/article/fact-sheet-costs-of-iran-war/"><span>tientallen miljarden dollars</span></a><span>, los van de effecten op de koopkracht. De VS moesten dat geld lenen. Omdat de Straat van Hormuz door de oorlog werd afgesloten, raakten logistieke ketens wereldwijd in de knel: een derde van alle olie en gas die de wereld gebruikt, kwam stil te liggen. Dat zorgde voor inflatie, waardoor de centrale bank de beleidsrente verhoogde. Het extra lenen vanwege een oorlog, moest dus tegen een hogere rente als gevolg van diezelfde oorlog</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Tip: als je geen geld hebt, ga dan geen conflicten beginnen waarvan je niet weet hoe lang ze duren. Trump heeft zich met de oorlog tegen Iran in de eigen voet geschoten. Maar hij is niet de enige die we van spilzucht mogen beschuldigen. Zo zorgen overheden, zeker de Amerikaanse, voor een sneeuwbaleffect. In de eurozone is het niet veel beter en burgers zullen de rekening betalen, aan de kassa en de pomp.

Tot de kredietcrisis beweegt de beleidsrente mee met de inflatie: &#8216;blauw&#8217; volgt &#8216;oranje&#8217;. Als de inflatie dreigt te ontsporen, grijpt de ECB het liefst van tevoren al in. Er zijn twee duidelijke momenten te zien dat de ECB na een recessie de economie stimuleert met lage rente: lenen wordt goedkoper, sparen minder aantrekkelijk en mensen gaan meer uitgeven. Als het te hard gaat, krijg je alleen wel inflatie, dat is de keerzijde. Dan moet de centrale bank afremmen, de rente gaat omhoog. De pieken in de inflatie in 2001 en 2008 gaan gepaard met hogere rente, de blauwe staafjes.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dan gebeurt er iets bijzonders. De centrale bank stopt met het verhogen van de rente. Vanaf 2009 tot 2022 is er geen enkele renteverhoging zichtbaar, er wordt zelfs gespeeld met negatieve rente. Dat betekent dat burgers negatieve rente op hun spaargeld krijgen, een boete op het oppotten van geld als appeltje voor de dorst. We moeten uitgeven. In de grafiek is duidelijk zichtbaar dat de inflatie in 2011 weer begon op te lopen maar het medicijn tegen inflatie, de blauwe staafjes van een renteverhoging, zijn afwezig. Na de pandemie komt er een bescheiden renteverhoging, die niet in verhouding is met de inflatie. De renteverhoging komt ook laat, in vergelijking met het moment waarop de inflatie zijn piek bereikt. Dat was tot 2009 zichtbaar wel anders. De ECB houdt de rente dus liever laag, of te laag dan goed is voor gewone mensen.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De reden daarvoor ligt in de hogere schuldenniveaus. Aan het begin van de eeuw hadden de grote landen een veel lagere schuld. Sterker nog, hierboven zagen we een Amerikaanse obligatie met een rente van acht procent, uit 1976. De rentes waren toen hoger, maar de schulden veel leger. Dat maakt de situatie nu zo explosief. Beter zorg je er als overheid voor dat het huishoudboekje wel op orde is.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De centrale bank kan dan naar eigen inzicht de rente even verhogen, als ze daar van mening zijn dat de inflatie ontspoort. Zo bescherm je de koopkracht van burgers. Alleen hebben overheden met veel schulden daar wel last van, want ze moeten hun schulden herfinancieren tegen hogere rentes. Ze zullen de centrale bankier dan politiek onder druk zetten om af te zien van een renteverhoging. Dan kunnen de dames en heren politici nog even doorgaan met uitgeven tegen een lage rente. Het gevolg is wel dat een renteverhoging afwezig blijft en daardoor gaat de inflatie omhoog. Burgers merken dat aan duurdere boodschappen en prijzen voor woningen, zij betalen de rekening. Door de veel hogere schulden is daar nu sprake van.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!qnsT!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5adef52e-8351-4230-ab0e-23c0af1a8bf1_476x368.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!qnsT!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5adef52e-8351-4230-ab0e-23c0af1a8bf1_476x368.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!qnsT!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5adef52e-8351-4230-ab0e-23c0af1a8bf1_476x368.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!qnsT!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5adef52e-8351-4230-ab0e-23c0af1a8bf1_476x368.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!qnsT!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5adef52e-8351-4230-ab0e-23c0af1a8bf1_476x368.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!qnsT!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5adef52e-8351-4230-ab0e-23c0af1a8bf1_476x368.png" width="476" height="368" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/5adef52e-8351-4230-ab0e-23c0af1a8bf1_476x368.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:368,&quot;width&quot;:476,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!qnsT!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5adef52e-8351-4230-ab0e-23c0af1a8bf1_476x368.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!qnsT!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5adef52e-8351-4230-ab0e-23c0af1a8bf1_476x368.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!qnsT!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5adef52e-8351-4230-ab0e-23c0af1a8bf1_476x368.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!qnsT!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5adef52e-8351-4230-ab0e-23c0af1a8bf1_476x368.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De situatie op de Amerikaanse obligatiemarkten valt het meest op.

In de afgelopen tien jaar was Biden slechts vier jaar president, tegen zes voor Trump. In die periode zijn de uitgaven van de overheid verdubbeld. Daar begint alle ellende mee: want dat geld moet je lenen, tegen een stijgende rente, waardoor je nog meer moet lenen, enzovoort.

Een stijgende yield betekent dat lenen op korte termijn duurder wordt, want beleggers in obligaties zijn die stukken aan het dumpen. Een lagere koers van een obligatie gaat gepaard met een hogere yield. Wat een overheid kan doen, is zelf geld lenen (via de de obligatiemarkten) en met dat geld vervolgens obligaties opkopen op diezelfde markt. De overheid en de centrale bank oefenen dan extra vraag uit op de markt voor obligaties, die stijgen dan in waarde, is de gedachte. Het is duidelijk zichtbaar dat de VS dit deden tijdens de pandemie, daar even mee zijn gestopt maar sinds het begin van dit jaar stilletjes aan het opkopen zijn.

Om het met een voorbeeld te vergelijken: stel dat je een marktkoopman bent in worsten en de omzet valt op een dag tegen. Je zou je kraam even alleen achter kunnen laten, om dan vanaf de andere kant heel hard te schreeuwen dat je met spoed heel van die worsten tegen een goede prijs wil kopen. Alleen is er geen marktkoopman! De commotie maakt dat andere marktbezoekers komen kijken wat er allemaal gebeurt. Vervolgens sprint de marktkoopman om zijn kraam heen om de extra orders in ontvangst te nemen. Die laatste grote klant liet toch echt zien dat we het hier over fantastische worsten hebben. Waarschijnlijk zal het publiek dan opmerken dat koper en verkoper dezelfde persoon zijn en weglopen van het rare tafereel.

Dit is natuurlijk niet houdbaar. Een marktkoopman kan de omzet van zijn kraam niet lang hoog houden door zijn eigen waar van zichzelf te kopen, een overheid kan op dezelfde manier de rente op de eigen schuld niet dempen door er zelf in te beleggen met geleend geld.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De Japanse economie laat een beetje zien wat er in het verschiet ligt. Daar is de staatsschuld belachelijk hoog, maar het zijn vooral Japanners die er zelf in beleggen. De centrale bank houdt de rente laag, zodat de rentelasten meevallen. Als de koersen van de obligaties toch beginnen te zakken, dan grijpt de centrale bank in. Het geheel aan maatregelen noemt men &#8216;yield-control&#8217;, in goed Nederlands gaat het om rente-manipulatie. Een centrale bank of overheid kan zelf stukken opkopen en zo de markten be&#239;nvloeden maar hierboven zagen we dat dat niet geloofwaardig is. Realistischer is een bijzonder lage beleidsrente, ook al is de inflatie hoog. Die inflatie blijft dan te hoog en burgers betalen de rekening door geldontwaarding. Omdat financi&#235;le markten wereldwijd aan elkaar gekoppeld zijn, kan een open economie als Nederland zich er niet tegen weren: hier gaat ook alles duurder worden.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!zHX3!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb3b29c4-e7e6-4194-9e95-e6fd905b7758_1037x476.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!zHX3!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb3b29c4-e7e6-4194-9e95-e6fd905b7758_1037x476.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!zHX3!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb3b29c4-e7e6-4194-9e95-e6fd905b7758_1037x476.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!zHX3!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb3b29c4-e7e6-4194-9e95-e6fd905b7758_1037x476.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!zHX3!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb3b29c4-e7e6-4194-9e95-e6fd905b7758_1037x476.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!zHX3!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb3b29c4-e7e6-4194-9e95-e6fd905b7758_1037x476.png" width="1037" height="476" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/cb3b29c4-e7e6-4194-9e95-e6fd905b7758_1037x476.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:476,&quot;width&quot;:1037,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!zHX3!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb3b29c4-e7e6-4194-9e95-e6fd905b7758_1037x476.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!zHX3!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb3b29c4-e7e6-4194-9e95-e6fd905b7758_1037x476.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!zHX3!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb3b29c4-e7e6-4194-9e95-e6fd905b7758_1037x476.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!zHX3!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb3b29c4-e7e6-4194-9e95-e6fd905b7758_1037x476.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Sinds een jaar of vijf is Japan, het schoolvoorbeeld van &#8216;yield-control&#8217;, het alleen aan het verliezen.

De kans is groot dat de ECB binnenkort de rente verlaagt of een opkoopprogramma start om Frankrijk te stutten. Daarmee help je dat land met zijn schuldenproblemen, het zorgt wel voor duurdere boodschappen in Nederland. </span><a href="https://www.stlouisfed.org/on-the-economy/2020/august/what-yield-curve-control"><span>Zo betaalt het braafste jongetje uit de klas voor het wangedrag van anderen.</span></a></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Misschien moet het braafste jongetje onder die omstandigheden het lef ontwikkelen om wat harder op de trom te slaan. Als er niet snel gesaneerd wordt door de grote landen, dan is een kredietcrisis onvermijdelijk. Centrale banken zullen dan ingrijpen met lapmiddelen, &#8216;stabilisatoren&#8217;, om te voorkomen dat er acute paniek ontstaat op de financi&#235;le markten. Het zou niet de eerste keer zijn. Alleen zorgen die doekjes voor het bloeden wel voor nog meer inflatie, ook in Nederland. Daarom, Nederland zou misschien eens wat strenger moeten zijn tegen de vrienden in de EU en de NAVO, vooral de landen die niet aan gereformeerd boekhouden doen. Eigenlijk is dat bijna iedereen.

Een professor van 41 genaamd Jason Arday heeft zichzelf van het leven beroofd, toen duidelijk was dat hij zijn carri&#232;re bij elkaar had verzonnen. Over de doden niets dan goeds, laten we dat even helder hebben. Wel mag je je afvragen of er in de wetenschap en de journalistiek geen cultuur is die het risico op dit soort incidenten vergroot.

Zijn ouders komen uit Ghana. Naast de academische bliksemcarri&#232;re was hij ook actief voor zeventig goede doelen, hij haalde in totaal vijf miljoen pond aan donaties op. Daarnaast was hij een begenadigd hardloper. Hij liep eens 30 marathons in 35 dagen, op een gegeven zelfs met een gebroken voet. Hij kon hij zo veel doen in zo weinig tijd? Hij zou weinig slapen. Cambridge wilde graag diverser worden en was maar wat blij met dit jonge talent van kleur. Daarbij liet men na om alle zelfbenoemde wapenfeiten kritisch te bekijken. De publicist Nathan Cofnas schreef </span><a href="https://ncofnas.com/p/dei-fraud-and-cover-up-at-cambridge"><span>een vrij vernietigend artikel</span></a><span> over Arday en de rest is geschiedenis.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het idee heerst dat dit &#8216;witte&#8217; mensen niet zou zijn overkomen.

Daarin lezen we:</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>&#8216;Bovendien maakt de achtergrond en identiteit van de wetenschapper uit voor de manier waarop zo&#8217;n fout behandeld wordt. Witte wetenschappers die frauderen worden &#8216;ambitieus&#8217; genoemd of de intense academische competitie wordt opgevoerd als verzachtende omstandigheid voor hun misstappen.&#8217;</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Klopt dat wel? In Nederland hebben we </span><a href="https://bps.stanford.edu/home/instances-scientific-misconduct/instances-scientific-misconduct-diederik-stapel"><span>Diederik Stapel</span></a><span> gehad, een professor die in ongenade is gevallen toen bleek dat hij onderzoeksresultaten had verzonnen, of beter gezegd: vervalst. Zijn partner in crime Roos Vonk kreeg </span><a href="https://nos.nl/artikel/315606-berisping-voor-hoogleraar-roos-vonk"><span>een berisping</span></a><span>. Ronald Plasterk, ooit PvdA, wilde in een &#8216;rechts&#8217; kabinet zitting nemen en werd beschuldigd van gesjoemel terwijl daar </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGpnIorrDkc"><span>geen sprake</span></a><span> van was. Na de heksenjacht besloot hij geen premier te worden. In de jaren &#8216;80 speelde de </span><a href="https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wouter_Buikhuisen"><span>affaire</span></a><span> Buikhuisen, zoekt u zelf nog maar wat voorbeelden op. Als er een voorbeeld is van een fraudeur die vanwege &#8216;witheid&#8217; als &#8216;ambitieus&#8217; is neergezet, laat het weten in de comments. En je kunt natuurlijk ook niet frauderen, het is maar gezegd.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Wat er lijkt te gebeuren in zowel de academische wereld als de journalistiek is dat door de obsessie met inclusie mensen komen bovendrijven die daardoor juist in de problemen geraken. Het gevaar zit niet in een samenleving die fraudeurs zou aanmoedigen als ze &#8216;wit&#8217; zijn en dat nalaat als ze &#8216;van kleur&#8217; zijn: het gevaar zit hem er wellicht in dat het laten horen van het juiste geluid beloond wordt, los van de vraag of het waar is. We pakken twee voorbeelden. We beginnen met het werk van Gloria Wekker, over wie eerder een artikel op 925 stond. Een lezer hier wilde het nog eens teruglezen. Destijds werd haar boek Witte Onschuld beschreven, dat tekenend is voor de huidige progressieve denkwijze in wetenschap en journalistiek.</span></p><div id="youtube2-yH0PGklLNBg" class="youtube-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;videoId&quot;:&quot;yH0PGklLNBg&quot;,&quot;startTime&quot;:null,&quot;endTime&quot;:null}" data-component-name="Youtube2ToDOM"><div class="youtube-inner"><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/yH0PGklLNBg?rel=0&amp;autoplay=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;enablejsapi=0" frameborder="0" loading="lazy" gesture="media" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowautoplay="true" allowfullscreen="true" width="728" height="409"></iframe></div></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In Nederland is er enige jaren een discussie over &#8216;institutioneel racisme&#8217;. Dat houdt in dat &#8216;witte&#8217; mensen worden voorgetrokken, bijvoorbeeld bij het krijgen van een huis. Neem dit gesprek tussen Wekker, professor aan de Universiteit van Utrecht (UU) en Boris Dittrich van D66. Er wordt aangenomen dat er institutioneel racisme is, zonder dat uitgelegd wordt wie zich er precies schuldig aan maakt. Dittrich kan zich er als &#8216;witte man&#8217; dan van distanti&#235;ren en doet zo het juiste. Alleen vraagt een journalist, in dit geval de Twan Huys van Buitenhof, nooit naar concreet bewijs. Dat is not done.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In de wereld van diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) is het gebruikelijk om mensen op hun woord te geloven. Het is de &#8216;lived experience&#8217; en als bewijs voor een wetenschappelijke studie  weegt dat net zo zwaar als een grote dataset. Denk ook aan de loonkloof in Nederland. Vrouwen zouden in een leven tonnen minder verdienen dan mannen, voor hetzelfde werk. Dat is het startschot van een aantal campagnes om dit sociale onrecht uit te bannen. Het Europees bureau voor de statistiek komt vervolgens met een verklaring die stelt dat de genoemde cijfers </span><a href="https://www.arnowellens.nl/p/de-loonkloof-is-een-activistisch"><span>zo niet gebruikt mogen worden</span></a><span>. Dat maakt dan niet meer uit. Er is een heersend narratief met goede en slechte mensen. &#8216;Witte mannen&#8217; vallen in de regel in de laatste categorie en kunnen hun naam zuiveren door afstand te nemen van het onrecht.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Wie vraagtekens plaatst bij de inhoudelijke juistheid van de analyse wordt in dezelfde hoek geduwd waar de echte slechteriken zitten. Er zijn ongetwijfeld hardcore racisten te vinden onder de Nederlandse bevolking, laten we ons daar geen illusie over maken. Vervolgens claimen enkele activisten dat dit racisme onderdeel is van de Nederlandse cultuur. Bij dat verhaal zit geen onderbouwing, waar dat vroeger in zowel de wetenschap als de journalistiek wel het geval was. Op familiefeestjes en bedrijfsborrels komt het onderwerp vervolgens ter discussie en als je wil voorkomen dat je bij de racisten wordt ingedeeld, kun je je er maar beter tegen uitspreken. Een derde route is er niet. Er is dan geen ruimte voor een kritische beschouwing van het bewijs. In tijden van DEI zijn er goeden en slechten en bij de laatste groep wil je echt niet horen, dat kost je je baan of je relatie.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In Nederland is Wekker een van de gezichten van deze beweging. Bij Buitenhof hoorden wel al dat racisme in de Nederlandse genen zit ingebakken. Dittrich, die bang is om gecanceld te worden, huilt maar wat mee met de wolven in het bos. Laten we nu eens kijken hoe Wekker tot haar conclusies van institutioneel racisme is gekomen. Dus, ja, racisme is slecht, maar dat betekent niet dat je maar mag aannemen dat alle Nederlanders ervan doordrenkt zijn. Activisten hebben vaak moeite met discussi&#235;ren op het juiste abstractieniveau.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het bewijs van Wekker zit in haar boek &#8216;Witte Onschuld&#8217;.

Daarna zouden de Britten heel Zuid-Afrika inlijven in een reeks bloedige, koloniale oorlogen. Maar daar heeft Nederland geen schuld aan, er is al bijna twee&#235;neenhalve eeuw geen koloniale aanwezigheid van betekenis in Afrika. Dan mag je je best afvragen of de Nederlandse identiteit in 2026 wordt gedefinieerd door gebeurtenissen van voor de Slag om Muizenberg.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Tegenwoordig is het gebruikelijk om </span><a href="https://deltaalphapsi.com/the-value-of-lived-experience-research-in-tackling-systemic-racism/"><span>&#8216;lived experiences&#8217;</span></a><span> toe te laten als wetenschappelijk bewijs.

Vervolgens gaan Twan Huys en Boris Dittrich bij Buitenhof door het stof, uit angst voor cancel culture.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Er is nog meer bewijs voor de aanwezigheid van institutioneel racisme in Nederland. De methode is afgekeken van een Amerikaanse zwarte vrouw met een blanke vrouw en dito kind als partner. In 1998 ontdekte deze Rhonda Williams dat als ze door het park liep, veel aanwezigen dachten dat ze de nanny was en niet zozeer de moeder. Volgens Wekker is dat een vorm van racisme, hoewel het ook een onschuldige aanname kan zijn. Het is niet heel vreemd voor kinderen om heel erg op hun moeder te lijken. Maar laten we even aannemen dat dit een valide bewijs van racisme is.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!02RL!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F736f6c8c-21f2-4883-9364-646b81d439cf_619x686.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!02RL!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F736f6c8c-21f2-4883-9364-646b81d439cf_619x686.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!02RL!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F736f6c8c-21f2-4883-9364-646b81d439cf_619x686.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!02RL!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F736f6c8c-21f2-4883-9364-646b81d439cf_619x686.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!02RL!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F736f6c8c-21f2-4883-9364-646b81d439cf_619x686.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!02RL!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F736f6c8c-21f2-4883-9364-646b81d439cf_619x686.jpeg" width="619" height="686" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/736f6c8c-21f2-4883-9364-646b81d439cf_619x686.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:686,&quot;width&quot;:619,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!02RL!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F736f6c8c-21f2-4883-9364-646b81d439cf_619x686.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!02RL!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F736f6c8c-21f2-4883-9364-646b81d439cf_619x686.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!02RL!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F736f6c8c-21f2-4883-9364-646b81d439cf_619x686.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!02RL!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F736f6c8c-21f2-4883-9364-646b81d439cf_619x686.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Uit kwantitatief onderzoek van Wekker blijkt dat Nederlanders dit ook ervaren, bijvoorbeeld omdat ze geadopteerd zijn.

Het gaat niet om wat waar is, maar wat past in het heersende narratief. Merk trouwens op dat het optreden van Wekker bij Buitenhof plaatsvond tijdens de lockdowns vanwege COVID.

In het heersende narratief van een dodelijk vleermuisvirus zou je sterven of anderen in gevaar brengen als je de Coronamaatregelen niet respecteerde. Aan de andere kant werd je ook verwacht te demonstreren tegen racisme. Moet je nu binnen blijven of de straat op?

Het is het verhaal van Klaas Relotius, de sterjournalist van Der Spiegel. Het laat zien dat journalisten met dezelfde zelfcensuur kampen als wetenschappers. Relotius publiceert wat zijn hoofdredactie en progressieve lezers willen horen, niet wat waar is. Vervolgens verzint hij het ene na het andere artikel, dat vol met aantoonbare onzin staat. In de regel zijn witte mensen slecht, Duitsers helemaal, en moeten we ons druk maken om vluchtelingen. Relotius fingeert zelfs namen van &#8216;vluchtelingenkinderen&#8217; die in werkelijkheid niet bestaan. Emotionele Duitsers sturen dan donaties, waarmee Relotius met zijn vriendin op vakantie kan gaan. Der Spiegel heeft later excuses gemaakt richting de lezers. </span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KeDa!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb8eb3b13-8145-449c-8855-2fa12cf2b7a1_547x365.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KeDa!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb8eb3b13-8145-449c-8855-2fa12cf2b7a1_547x365.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KeDa!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb8eb3b13-8145-449c-8855-2fa12cf2b7a1_547x365.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KeDa!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb8eb3b13-8145-449c-8855-2fa12cf2b7a1_547x365.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KeDa!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb8eb3b13-8145-449c-8855-2fa12cf2b7a1_547x365.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KeDa!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb8eb3b13-8145-449c-8855-2fa12cf2b7a1_547x365.png" width="547" height="365" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/b8eb3b13-8145-449c-8855-2fa12cf2b7a1_547x365.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:365,&quot;width&quot;:547,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KeDa!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb8eb3b13-8145-449c-8855-2fa12cf2b7a1_547x365.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KeDa!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb8eb3b13-8145-449c-8855-2fa12cf2b7a1_547x365.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KeDa!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb8eb3b13-8145-449c-8855-2fa12cf2b7a1_547x365.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KeDa!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb8eb3b13-8145-449c-8855-2fa12cf2b7a1_547x365.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Trump moet het ook vaak ontgelden, als &#8216;witte&#8217; man met Duitse roots nog eens. Relotius zoekt het meest &#8216;witte&#8217; plaatsje van de VS op, genaamd Fergus Falls. Vanuit zijn appartement in Duitsland verzint hij een bezoek ter plaatse. Al snel krijgt hij het online aan de stok met de lokale inwoners, die hem op eenvoudig te controleren inconsistenties wijzen. We pakken een stukje van het werk van Relotius erbij, omdat hij wel gewoon goed kan schrijven. Hij beschrijft hoe zijn bus in Fergus Fall in het Trump-bolwerk arriveert. Lees en huiver.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>&#8216;After three and a half hours, the bus bends from the highway to a narrow, sloping street, rolling towards a dark forest that looks like dragons live in it. At the entrance, just before the station, there is a sign with the American stars and stripes banner, which reads: &#8220;Welcome to Fergus Falls, home of damn good folks.&#8221;&#8217;</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>&#8216;There is also a cinema outside of town, where fast food stores are lit up. In this cinema, a flat, rectangular building, there are two films on a Friday evening. The one, &#8220;La La Land&#8221;, running in empty rows, is a musical, a romance about artists in Los Angeles. The other, &#8220;American Sniper&#8221;, a war film by Clint Eastwood, is sold out. The film is actually already two years old, almost 40 million Americans have seen it, but it still runs in Fergus Falls.&#8217;</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>&#8216;There is nothing on the cap of Neil Becker. Becker, a man with strong shoulders, blond hair and big, clear eyes, asks, &#8220;Have you lost your mind?&#8221; Neil Becker is 57 years old, married, a man with a deep voice and a face in which seldom find any questions. He is not a farmer, he works next door in the coal-fired power plant, his hands are always black.&#8217;</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Heftig, nietwaar? Die witte mensen werken niet alleen in kolencentrales (klimaat!) maar om er te komen moet je door een griezelig drakenbos. De lezers van Der Spiegel smullen.

justify;"><em>Nog even met Eva Vlaardingerbroek contact gehad: er is ook geen hoor- en wederhoor toegepast. Anders had ze meteen kunnen zeggen: dit is &#8216;grote onzin&#8217;. Dat had ze willen antwoorden. Zelf ontkent ze ook enig contact met het Kremlin. Het klopt dat er voor het versturen van emails gebruik wordt gemaakt van de diensten van een bedrijf van de genoemde Brown en dat hij inderdaad een keer in Moskou is geweest, maar dat betekent niet dat zij vervolgens zelf geld krijgt van Poetin. </em></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Lezersvraag: is dit schokkende verhaal over Russische inmenging waar? De Nederlandse Eva Vlaardingerbroek is met een groep internationale vrienden een campagne begonnen voor een &#8216;Save Europe Act&#8217; (SEA), die neerkomt op remigratie. Dat internationale netwerk leidt naar Moskou&#8217;. Klopt dat laatste? Het korte antwoord is: &#8216;nee&#8217; en als er al iets is dan is er geen bewijs, tenminste niet het materiaal dat ter ondersteuning dient. We gaan het vandaag hebben over de uiterst infantiele pogingen om iedereen die maar een beetje kritisch is op de huidige koers van de EU, als een trekpop van het Kremlin weg te zetten. Daar zit duidelijk een patroon in. De truc is het opbakken van oud materiaal, dat vaak de heftige stellingen niet onderbouwt. Daarom zijn de beschuldigingen ook vaag: </span><em><span>De Volkskrant</span></em><span> durft niet te schrijven dat Vlaardingerbroek bijvoorbeeld een zak roebels en een krat zelfgestookte bietenwodka uit het Kremlin heeft gekregen. Dingen &#8216;zouden zo zijn&#8217; en &#8216;sporen leiden naar&#8217;, daar moeten we het mee doen. We kijken eerst naar het artikel van</span><em><span> De Volkskrant</span></em><span>: dan naar de structuur achter het narratief dat &#8216;Moskou&#8217; het doet en dan naar echte Russische inmenging waar de zelfbenoemde kwaliteitspers het niet over heeft.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

achter een betaalmuur is als volgt:</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>&#8216;De Save Europe Act (SEA) presenteert zich als Europees burgerinitiatief, maar achter de schermen lopen er lijnen naar een christelijk-rechtse activist in de VS, die banden heeft met Rusland. Dat blijkt uit onderzoek van Justice for Prosperity. Ook verzamelde de campagne honderdduizenden handtekeningen die volgens Europese regels ongeldig zijn.&#8217;</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het gaat hier om twee problemen: de buitenlandse inmenging en het feit dat de manier waarop de handtekeningen zijn opgehaald niet rechtsgeldig is. Op dat laatste komen we terug, eerst gaan we kijken hoe de journalist van </span><em><span>De Volkskrant</span></em><span> zo zeker weet dat deze campagne een snode opzet van Vladimir Poetin is. We lezen in het artikel:</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>&#8216;Uit onderzoek van Justice for Prosperity (JfP) blijkt nu dat de Save Europe Act geen puur Europees initiatief is, maar een voorbeeld van inmenging van buiten. De Nederlandse stichting, die onderzoek doet naar ondermijning van de democratie, stelde vast dat de digitale infrastructuur van de Save Europe Act leidt naar een in Washington gevestigd bedrijf van de Amerikaan Brian Brown. Brown is een anti-abortus- en anti-lhbti-activist en sleutelfiguur in de internationale christelijk-rechtse lobby, die bovendien contacten onderhoudt met het Kremlin&#8217;</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dat onderzoek van JfP gaan we zo ook doorspitten, natuurlijk. Merk hier op dat deze alinea de kop boven het artikel reduceert tot clickbait. Als je de kop leest, denk je dat er twee buitenlandse connecties zijn: &#8216;uiterst rechts&#8217; uit de VS en daarn&#225;&#225;st doet ome Vlad uit het Kremlin &#243;&#243;k nog iets. Nu zien we dat er sprake is van een Amerikaan genaamd Brian Brown, ongetwijfeld een rechtse rakker, die weleens op de koffie is geweest in het Kremlin. Dat is niet wat de kop suggereerde. Er is geen lijntje naar Moskou gevonden. Om het toch nog spannend te houden, volgt deze quote:</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>&#8216;JfP-directeur Jelle Postma: &#8216;Hun gemeenschappelijke vijand is onze liberale democratie en haar instituties. Het doel is het destabiliseren van onze samenleving.&#8217;&#8217;</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Wat Poetin nu precies heeft gedaan, wordt niet duidelijk uit het artikel. Merk wel op dat Postma een meervoudsvorm (&#8216;hun&#8217;) gebruikt. Naast Brown gaat dus ook om Poetin, ze zouden samen een doel hebben geformuleerd. De link met Moskou is als volgt:</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>&#8216;In 2013 was Brown aanwezig in de Doema, het lagerhuis van het Russische parlement, toen de anti-lhbti-wetgeving daar werd aangenomen, en in de jaren daarna bezocht hij Moskou meerdere keren.&#8217;</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Poetin ontmoette in 2013 ook de huidige baas van de NAVO, daar gaan we het straks over hebben. Ongetwijfeld is de Russische president een onprettig persoon en is het voor Nederland verstandig om de defensie op orde te hebben en niet na&#239;ef te zijn in een wereld die onvoorspelbaarder is dan eerder gedacht. Dat is het punt niet. Het gaat om de vraag of Nederland inderdaad hiermee het slachtoffer is van kwaadaardige Russische inmenging.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De suggestie dat dat zo is gaat compleet voorbij aan het feit dat recente incidenten maken dat een meerderheid van de Nederlanders voorstander is van een veel strenger migratiebeleid. </span><em><span>De Volkskrant</span></em><span> negeert dat volledig, het zou allemaal aan het Kremlin liggen. Nederlanders willen juist migranten en asielzoekers, maar door de directe invloed van Poetin zijn ze ineens &#8216;radicaal-rechts&#8217; geworden, zoiets. Een simpele greep uit de reacties op social media laat ook zien dat mensen het zo interpreteren.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FJmM!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F557548f6-e2f6-4516-ae5a-b4cfdebed05e_483x386.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FJmM!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F557548f6-e2f6-4516-ae5a-b4cfdebed05e_483x386.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FJmM!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F557548f6-e2f6-4516-ae5a-b4cfdebed05e_483x386.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FJmM!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F557548f6-e2f6-4516-ae5a-b4cfdebed05e_483x386.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FJmM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F557548f6-e2f6-4516-ae5a-b4cfdebed05e_483x386.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FJmM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F557548f6-e2f6-4516-ae5a-b4cfdebed05e_483x386.png" width="483" height="386" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/557548f6-e2f6-4516-ae5a-b4cfdebed05e_483x386.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:386,&quot;width&quot;:483,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FJmM!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F557548f6-e2f6-4516-ae5a-b4cfdebed05e_483x386.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FJmM!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F557548f6-e2f6-4516-ae5a-b4cfdebed05e_483x386.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FJmM!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F557548f6-e2f6-4516-ae5a-b4cfdebed05e_483x386.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FJmM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F557548f6-e2f6-4516-ae5a-b4cfdebed05e_483x386.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><em><span>De Volkskrant</span></em><span> laat na een link naar het oorspronkelijke onderzoek te plaatsen.

Via beeldspraak (een poppetje met een Russische vlag in een paard van Troje) en heftige conclusies wordt de lezer angst aangejaagd. Maar als je goed leest zie je dat er geen hard bewijs is. Als een onderzoeker of journalist een &#8216;smoking gun&#8217; heeft gevonden, dan hoor je een ander geluid - geen vage beschuldigingen. Dat laatste laat zien dat er juist geen hard bewijs is (en dan mag je ook geen intenties als bewezen verklaren, zoals het &#8216;willen&#8217; destabiliseren van Europa van binnenuit).</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>&#8216;Uit onze bevindingen blijkt dat er achter de technische infrastructuur van de SEA een ondoorzichtig netwerk van actoren schuilgaat, dat helemaal terugloopt naar het Kremlin.&#8217;</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Laten we het artikel van JfP toch eens lezen, op zoek naar hard bewijs van een Russische opzet.

JfP toont vrij helder aan dat hij serverruimte biedt aan SEA. Als je honderdduizenden handtekeningen wil bewaren en evenveel berichten wil kunnen beantwoorden, heb je inderdaad wat bandbreedte en serverruimte nodig. Dat dit verband is, mogen we onomstreden noemen. Zo laat JfP zien waar de domeinnaam van SEA zit, bijvoorbeeld.

</span><a href="https://www.lobbyfacts.eu/datacard/stichting-justice-for-prosperity-foundation?rid=888735550072-29"><span>een andere tekst</span></a><span> opgestuurd:</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>&#8216;Our organisation may also seek to shape policy and legislation through engagement with the EC and EP on the Digital Services Act. We strongly advocate for measures that effectively combat online hate speech, extremism, and violence against women, activists, and communities such as the Jewish, migrant, and LGBTIQ+ communities. We focus on influencing data protection, privacy, and cybersecurity policies and fostering digital literacy and media literacy initiatives in order to promote critical thinking and responsible online behaviour.&#8217;</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het is een mix van zorgen om minderheden, terreur, Poetin en misinformatie. Het hoofdkantoor zit in het gebouw van het Amsterdamse Tropenmuseum. JfP </span><a href="https://justiceforprosperity.org/nl/about-us/"><span>werkt samen</span></a><span> met het European Digital Media Observatory (EDMO), dat weer </span><a href="https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/nl/policies/european-digital-media-observatory"><span>geld krijgt</span></a><span> van de Europese Commissie (EC) om &#8216;desinformatie&#8217; te bestrijden. JfP heeft zo een brede waaier aan gecommuniceerde doelstellingen, dat elke vermeende vorm van onrecht in het aandachtsgebied valt. Als Brown geld krijgt van Poetin om aan SEA te geven, dan kun je daar buitenlandse inmenging in lezen maar ook discriminatie.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dat zet de deur open voor een evident probleem. Postma presenteert zich als de man die nu eenmaal dingen weet, als oud-spion. Hij omringt zich met figuren die in de internationale inlichtingenwereld werken, zoals deze </span><a href="https://ctc.westpoint.edu/team/kevin-mcaleenan/"><span>Kevin McAleenan</span></a><span> die op West Point doceert en onderzoek doet. Als je niet nuchter in je schoenen staat, dan zou je enorm onder de indruk van de CV&#8217;s kunnen raken en alles wat JfP presenteert slikken voor zoete koek, of nog erger: waarheden. Alleen is de suggestie dat Poetin de suikeroom van Vlaardingerbroek is, niet bewezen. Er zijn twee oude links als bewijs aangeleverd die a) het gestelde bewijs niet bevatten en b) van het internet zijn afgehaald voordat JfP is opgericht. </span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!-nl1!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65be1fd4-4824-45da-afc2-5da0d1027dd1_1319x392.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!-nl1!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65be1fd4-4824-45da-afc2-5da0d1027dd1_1319x392.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!-nl1!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65be1fd4-4824-45da-afc2-5da0d1027dd1_1319x392.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!-nl1!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65be1fd4-4824-45da-afc2-5da0d1027dd1_1319x392.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!-nl1!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65be1fd4-4824-45da-afc2-5da0d1027dd1_1319x392.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!-nl1!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65be1fd4-4824-45da-afc2-5da0d1027dd1_1319x392.png" width="1319" height="392" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/65be1fd4-4824-45da-afc2-5da0d1027dd1_1319x392.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:392,&quot;width&quot;:1319,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!-nl1!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65be1fd4-4824-45da-afc2-5da0d1027dd1_1319x392.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!-nl1!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65be1fd4-4824-45da-afc2-5da0d1027dd1_1319x392.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!-nl1!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65be1fd4-4824-45da-afc2-5da0d1027dd1_1319x392.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!-nl1!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65be1fd4-4824-45da-afc2-5da0d1027dd1_1319x392.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Interessant genoeg deelt Postma dit dedain voor zijn eigen werk.

In het Wetboek van Strafrecht lezen we dat je de fout in gaat &#8216;door telastlegging van een bepaald feit, met het kennelijke doel om daaraan ruchtbaarheid te geven&#8217;. Als je opschrijft dat bepaalde mensen smeergeld van het Kremlin krijgen, dan rand je inderdaad hun naam aan. Dat kan nodig zijn, als je over hard, tastbaar en ondubbelzinnig bewijs beschikt. Dat heeft Postma niet, hij heeft alleen informatie van dertien jaar geleden uit tweede (of vijfde) hand die hij zelf nooit heeft gezien.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dat is zo zwak, dat hij er zelf maar een disclaimer aan toevoegt. Maar een beschuldiging is een beschuldiging, je kunt niet mensen eerst opzettelijk beschuldigen zonder bewijs en dan achteraf een disclaimer toevoegen die stelt dat je een en ander niet letterlijk moet nemen. Ook is het op zijn minst vreemd dat </span><em><span>De Volkskrant</span></em><span> de disclaimer niet in het eigen artikel vermeldde: het ging immers om vage beschuldigingen en geen harde feiten.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Wat hier gebeurt is dat de stelling wordt verspreid dat er sprake is van Russische inmenging - daar zouden we het bij houden, we gaan het niet over nut en noodzaak van het initiatief van Vlaardingerbroek en haar vrienden hebben. Wie stelt dat er Russische inmenging is, mag dan wel even het bewijs leveren. Dat bewijs ontbreekt volledig of het is veel te zwak. Dat zie je pas, als je alle bronvermeldingen achter elkaar legt om bij de oorspronkelijke claim te komen. Los van dit onderwerp en de kunsten van</span><em><span> De Volkskrant</span></em><span> en JfP, dat is een groter, algemener probleem.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><em><span>De Volkskrant</span></em><span> haalt hier een onderzoek van JfP aan, dat de lezer zelf maar moet opzoeken. JfP verwijst naar relatief obscure nieuwsbronnen, in ieder geval vanuit Nederlands perspectief. Vraagt u zich immers af of Poetin wel of geen Nederlanders omkoopt, dan zal men hier niet snel in het nieuwsarchief van dertien jaar geleden van</span><em><span> Salon</span></em><span> gaan zoeken, de bron van JfP. </span><em><span>Salon</span></em><span> beroept zich echter weer op </span><em><span>Right Wing Watch</span></em><span>, dat de claim uit een inmiddels verwijderd artikel uit 2013 heeft gehaald.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Uit reacties op social media kun je opmaken dat lezers denken dat ze hier met echt onderzoek te maken hebben: dat er echt een relatie is tussen Poetin en Vlaardingerbroek. Het is immers de spion Postma die het stelde, de 007 van de polder. Je gaat een expert toch niet tegenspreken? Om te ontdekken dat het om een mening gaat en niet om een feit, moet je vijf bronvermeldingen volgen aangezien het ene medium via een ander wijst op informatie uit 2013 die enkel nog in het internetarchief zit, de oorspronkelijke URL loopt dood. Het is een keten geworden, een soort informatieve &#8216;Chinese Whisper&#8217;. Een Frans collectief van katholieken gaat in 2013 naar een zaaltje met Russische parlementsleden. In 2026 is dit het bewijs dat de mensen achter SEA geld krijgen van Poetin.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het probleem is dat mensen een verhaal geloven, omdat een ander het overtikt. Ze zullen niet zelf in de bronvermelding duiken, om te kijken of de harde conclusies wel gerechtvaardigd zijn. Er staat dat het ergens anders staat dus het is waar. Op deze site kan ik bijvoorbeeld zien hoe veel mensen op een bronvermelding klikken. Dat is in de regel minder dan een procent. Vervolgens zal die bronvermelding weer eigen bronnen hebben, waar letterlijk niemand in ge&#239;nteresseerd is. Als het &#8216;ergens&#8217; staat is het dus waar, niemand duikt nog in de bronvermelding.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rg44!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F638658de-c022-47ce-8d50-dbd10ed204cd_791x618.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rg44!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F638658de-c022-47ce-8d50-dbd10ed204cd_791x618.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rg44!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F638658de-c022-47ce-8d50-dbd10ed204cd_791x618.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rg44!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F638658de-c022-47ce-8d50-dbd10ed204cd_791x618.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rg44!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F638658de-c022-47ce-8d50-dbd10ed204cd_791x618.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rg44!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F638658de-c022-47ce-8d50-dbd10ed204cd_791x618.png" width="791" height="618" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/638658de-c022-47ce-8d50-dbd10ed204cd_791x618.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:618,&quot;width&quot;:791,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rg44!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F638658de-c022-47ce-8d50-dbd10ed204cd_791x618.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rg44!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F638658de-c022-47ce-8d50-dbd10ed204cd_791x618.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rg44!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F638658de-c022-47ce-8d50-dbd10ed204cd_791x618.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rg44!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F638658de-c022-47ce-8d50-dbd10ed204cd_791x618.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het blijft helaas niet bij dit voorbeeld.

Threats affecting democracy in any Member State can harm the Union as a whole. Moreover, disinformation often targets European institutions and their representatives and aims at undermining the European project itself in general.&#8217;</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>&#8216;Evidence shows that foreign state actors are increasingly deploying disinformation strategies to influence societal debates, create divisions and interfere in democratic decision-making. These strategies target not only Member States but also partner countries in the Eastern Neighbourhood as well as in the Southern Neighbourhood, Middle East and Africa. Disinformation produced and/or spread by Russian sources has been reported in the context of several elections and referenda in the EU(16)&#8217;.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Als je het zo opschrijft, dan zijn de verkiezingen op zich een bedreiging voor de stabiliteit van het westen. Poetin kan kiezers immers sturen via Facebook en straks stemmen ze op iemand die niet pro-EU is. We lezen immers dat er sprake is van Russische inmenging &#8216;in het kader&#8217; van Europese referenda. Het meest recente referendum in 2016 ging over het associatieverdrag met Oekra&#239;ne. Daar was sprake van Russische inmenging. Dat is een feit, want er zit een voetnoot bij die claim, nummertje 16. Wat zou er gebeuren als we op die link klikken - en dat doet dus niemand.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ub8U!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd4d7dac7-44e2-40d8-9fb0-4003fc325dfb_693x550.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ub8U!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd4d7dac7-44e2-40d8-9fb0-4003fc325dfb_693x550.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ub8U!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd4d7dac7-44e2-40d8-9fb0-4003fc325dfb_693x550.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ub8U!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd4d7dac7-44e2-40d8-9fb0-4003fc325dfb_693x550.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ub8U!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd4d7dac7-44e2-40d8-9fb0-4003fc325dfb_693x550.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ub8U!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd4d7dac7-44e2-40d8-9fb0-4003fc325dfb_693x550.png" width="693" height="550" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/d4d7dac7-44e2-40d8-9fb0-4003fc325dfb_693x550.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:550,&quot;width&quot;:693,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ub8U!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd4d7dac7-44e2-40d8-9fb0-4003fc325dfb_693x550.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ub8U!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd4d7dac7-44e2-40d8-9fb0-4003fc325dfb_693x550.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ub8U!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd4d7dac7-44e2-40d8-9fb0-4003fc325dfb_693x550.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ub8U!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd4d7dac7-44e2-40d8-9fb0-4003fc325dfb_693x550.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De link is helaas dood, het Franse verantwoordelijk ministerie heeft het rapport offline gehaald.

De Russische inmenging bij het referendum van 2016 wordt voor waar aangenomen en dient zelfs als rechtvaardiging voor wetgeving, zonder dat er maar een gram aan tastbaar bewijs is.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TvZ1!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fed3629f4-aa37-410d-bc4c-39d4b6d750f0_907x526.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TvZ1!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fed3629f4-aa37-410d-bc4c-39d4b6d750f0_907x526.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TvZ1!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fed3629f4-aa37-410d-bc4c-39d4b6d750f0_907x526.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TvZ1!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fed3629f4-aa37-410d-bc4c-39d4b6d750f0_907x526.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TvZ1!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fed3629f4-aa37-410d-bc4c-39d4b6d750f0_907x526.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TvZ1!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fed3629f4-aa37-410d-bc4c-39d4b6d750f0_907x526.png" width="907" height="526" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/ed3629f4-aa37-410d-bc4c-39d4b6d750f0_907x526.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:526,&quot;width&quot;:907,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TvZ1!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fed3629f4-aa37-410d-bc4c-39d4b6d750f0_907x526.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TvZ1!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fed3629f4-aa37-410d-bc4c-39d4b6d750f0_907x526.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TvZ1!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fed3629f4-aa37-410d-bc4c-39d4b6d750f0_907x526.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TvZ1!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fed3629f4-aa37-410d-bc4c-39d4b6d750f0_907x526.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Hier zien we hetzelfde gebeuren als bij de aanval van JfP op Vlaardingerbroek: er is geen concreet bewijs.

Het vervelende is alleen de angst voor Russische inmenging een hoger budget rechtvaardigt, los van de vraag in hoeverre het is waargenomen. In 2015 kreeg de task force een budget van 1,1 miljoen. In 2020, het jaar van de evaluatie die aantoont dat er geen Russische inmenging was, steeg dit naar 4 miljoen. Er zijn nu zestien mensen in dienst die de hele dag het narratief voeden dat het Kremlin achter de &#8216;desinformatie&#8217; zit. Het is dus een verdienmodel geworden. Als het je baan is om een probleem te bestrijden, ga je natuurlijk niet opschrijven dat het probleem niet zo groot is. Vergeet ook niet dat de EU nu een &#8216;digital services act&#8217; kent die het mogelijk maakt om onwelgevallige berichten van het internet te laten verwijderen. Dan hoop je wel dat de analyse van het probleem van misinformatie een beetje sterk is. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De anst voor de Rus maakt een groter budget acceptabel en zo word je bestookt met hetzelfde opgebakken verhaal. JfP krijgt nu zeven ton per jaar van andere NGO&#8217;s en het Ministerie van Binnenlandse zaken. De giften stijgen zo hard, dat er een winst is van meer dan vier ton. Gewone stervelingen kunnen ook doneren, dat gebeurde voor een bedrag van iets meer dan drieduizend piek. Dit soort clubs drijft dus op geld van de overheid.

Dat is veel interessanter dan in het internetarchief graven naar artikeltjes over Franse katholieken die met een Amerikaans conservatief een weekend naar Moskou gaan (in 2013). Dat deed onze premier toen ook, met zichtbare beleidsmatige gevolgen. Daar hoor je de reguliere media dan weer niet over.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Samengevat is er geen bewijs voor de stelling dat Vlaardingerbroek geld heeft aangenomen van Poetin. In de journalistiek is iets niet waar, tenzij je kunt bewijzen dat het wel zo is. Het onderzoek van JfP is zo waardeloos, dat er een disclaimer is toegevoegd die stelt dat de inhoud dan ook niet voor waar moet worden aangenomen. Dan had je het hele verhaal ook kunnen laten zitten. </span><em><span>De Volkskrant</span></em><span> maakt het nog spannender en heeft het over &#8216;inmenging&#8217;. Dat is een claim die zelfs JfP niet durft te maken, maar feiten doen er inmiddels niet meer toe.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>JfP baseert zich op artikelen uit 2013 die inmiddels niet te vinden zijn. De Amerikaanse media die het &#8216;bewijs&#8217; publiceerden, zijn opgehouden te bestaan voordat JfP werd opgericht. Door dat niet te melden, ook niet in het artikel in </span><em><span>De Volkskrant</span></em><span>, wordt de suggestie gewekt dat er nieuw bewijs is opgedoken over acties van Poetin. Dat is niet het geval. Dergelijke angstcampagnes zorgen voor een bredere acceptatie van de facto censuur, want de overheid zou ons moeten beschermen tegen de &#8216;inmenging&#8217;. Het is vaker te zien dat grote verhalen over die Russische &#8216;inmenging&#8217; in het geheel niet worden ondersteund door bewijs. Maar door de toegenomen angst komt er meer geld vrij voor onderzoek naar en bestrijding van het vermeende probleem. Dat is weer een verdienmodel voor de onheilsprofeten. Die zouden zich ook op daadwerkelijk dubieus gedrag kunnen richten, zoals het breken van sancties tegen Russische miljardairs en bedrijven maar dat is klaarblijkelijk te moeilijk.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Tot slot mag vermeld worden dat ik geen relatie heb met het initiatief van SEA. Ik ken Vlaardingerbroek uit het circuit van de pratende hoofden (dat bestaat) maar we werken niet samen. Ik heb geen mening over SEA en meningen van journalisten zijn sowieso niet interessant. Ik wilde haar vragen waarom ze koos voor een manier van handtekeningen ophalen die het voor Von der Leyen bijzonder makkelijk maakt om het hele project terzijde te schuiven. Als dat er is, krijgt deze tekst een aanvulling.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Had u mijn laatste boek trouwens al gelezen?

Het verzet in het Europees parlement is gestaakt dus in 2029 is het project zeker af. U krijgt hier een reeks van 25 artikelen over de mogelijkheden van een Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC). Of je er blij van moet worden is een tweede, dat is aan de mensen zelf. In een later stadium vouwen we alle 25 artikelen en de bespreking in een boekje maar de lezers hier hebben we het dan natuurlijk allemaal al gelezen natuurlijk. Dat e-book wordt dan zo goed als gratis zodat het voor iedereen bereikbaar is. Journalisten moeten allemaal technieken ontwikkelen om arm te blijven en allememaggies, wat zijn veel vakgenoten daar toch goed in.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De scherpe geesten hadden natuurlijk al gezien dat de foto in Japan is gemaakt, niet in China. Kun je nou helemaal niks?! Maar vandaag gaan we het hebben over een Japans artikel over de Chinese digitale munt, dat verklaart het. China geeft een digitale munt uit, een CBDC, net als de Europese Commissie (EC) dat hier graag zou willen. Op de valreep van het vorige jaar is de opzet van de Chinese munt met een druk op de knop aangepast. De les is hier: dat kan dus. Voorstanders van een digitale euro stellen dat er allemaal waarborgen zijn, over privacy bijvoorbeeld. Je hoeft er dus niet zo bang voor zijn. De les uit China is alleen dat die voorwaarden achteraf heel simpel aangepast kunnen worden. Dat de ECB nu geen voorstander is van programmeerbaar geld betekent niet dat dat over vijf jaar nog zo is. En dan is de infrastructuur voor een digitale dictatuur gebouwd en is het te laat. Daarom moet je nu kritisch zijn.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Wbaz!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F11ceb587-c197-4e5a-8bfa-8b1d248f52fc_2048x1190.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Wbaz!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F11ceb587-c197-4e5a-8bfa-8b1d248f52fc_2048x1190.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Wbaz!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F11ceb587-c197-4e5a-8bfa-8b1d248f52fc_2048x1190.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Wbaz!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F11ceb587-c197-4e5a-8bfa-8b1d248f52fc_2048x1190.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Wbaz!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F11ceb587-c197-4e5a-8bfa-8b1d248f52fc_2048x1190.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Wbaz!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F11ceb587-c197-4e5a-8bfa-8b1d248f52fc_2048x1190.png" width="1456" height="846" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/11ceb587-c197-4e5a-8bfa-8b1d248f52fc_2048x1190.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:846,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Wbaz!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F11ceb587-c197-4e5a-8bfa-8b1d248f52fc_2048x1190.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Wbaz!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F11ceb587-c197-4e5a-8bfa-8b1d248f52fc_2048x1190.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Wbaz!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F11ceb587-c197-4e5a-8bfa-8b1d248f52fc_2048x1190.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Wbaz!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F11ceb587-c197-4e5a-8bfa-8b1d248f52fc_2048x1190.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De Chinese centrale bank geeft </span><a href="https://www.wsj.com/world/china/china-creates-its-own-digital-currency-a-first-for-major-economy-11617634118"><span>sinds 2021</span></a><span> een digitale renminbi uit.

De Chinese centrale bank heeft die munt nog niet echt gelanceerd, officieel zit het project nog in de testfase. Alleen duurt die testfase nu al vijf jaar en zijn alle operationele aspecten afgerond. Chinezen kunnen de app downloaden en er gewoon mee betalen, los van de vraag of het project uit de testfase is of niet.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Vervelend genoeg voor de People&#8217;s Bank of China (</span><a href="https://www.pbc.gov.cn/en/index.html"><span>PBOC</span></a><span>) heeft de doorsnee Chinees er helemaal geen interesse in. Dat las u eerder op deze site: meerdere landen proberen een digitale versie van de eigen munt in te voeren maar steeds blijkt dat burgers er geen behoefte aan hebben. Commerci&#235;le alternatieven zijn er steeds eerder dan de munt van de logge overheid. Ook geeft CBDC de overheid en de centrale bank </span><a href="https://www.arnowellens.nl/p/cbdc-1725-digitale-euro-flopt-al"><span>meer macht en invloed</span></a><span>. Dat is fijn voor hen maar met dat verhaal trek je natuurlijk geen nieuwe klanten aan.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In China kunnen de mensen al betalen met AliPay en WeChat Pay. Elke functionaliteit die een Chinese CBDC zou kunnen bieden, is er dus al. In Europa zal het niet anders zijn. Als burgers kiezen voor de munt van de centrale bank, lees overheid, dan is dat gunstig voor de laatste. Wie het geld uitgeeft dat de samenleving gebruikt, verdient daar zelf geld aan. Dat principe heet seigniorage, onderwerp van </span><a href="https://www.arnowellens.nl/p/drie-grote-fouten-bij-nieuwsuur-over"><span>een eerder artikel</span></a><span>. Ook wil de overheid grip houden op het financieel systeem, een begrip dat door het verdwijnen van cash aan het afkalven is. Vanuit de overheid gedacht is het allemaal heel logisch, maar daarmee maak je de digitale munt nog niet populair bij het publiek. Ook bleek dat voor aanbieders van betaaldiensten er wel degelijk grote kosten en andere organisatorische beslommeringen waren om het middel te gebruiken. Het is dus geen &#8216;handige app&#8217;. Op dit moment wordt ongeveer een op de vijfhonderd digitale betalingen in China met de e-CNY gedaan.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Op 29 december 2025 voerde de PBOC drie veranderingen door in de e-CNY. Dat was mogelijk, omdat het project dus nog in een soort testfase zit. Ten eerste is het niet langer een digitale vorm van cash, maar een banktegoed, net als de banktegoeden die mensen al hebben in de vorm van spaargeld of tegoeden op een ouderwetse bankrekening. Ten tweede is de e-CNY nu onderdeel van de reserves, banken kunnen het gebruiken om er geld mee te scheppen - iets wat banken nu eenmaal doen. Ten derde mag er nu wel rente worden berekend over tegoeden die mensen aanhouden. Als je het in een zin wil samenvatten: het verschil tussen een e-CNY en andere vormen van geld is haast niet meer zichtbaar.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lRJ!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F999c70b6-ccb3-453a-abb2-3709286e1e01_860x573.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lRJ!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F999c70b6-ccb3-453a-abb2-3709286e1e01_860x573.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lRJ!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F999c70b6-ccb3-453a-abb2-3709286e1e01_860x573.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lRJ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F999c70b6-ccb3-453a-abb2-3709286e1e01_860x573.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lRJ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F999c70b6-ccb3-453a-abb2-3709286e1e01_860x573.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lRJ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F999c70b6-ccb3-453a-abb2-3709286e1e01_860x573.png" width="860" height="573" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/999c70b6-ccb3-453a-abb2-3709286e1e01_860x573.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:573,&quot;width&quot;:860,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lRJ!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F999c70b6-ccb3-453a-abb2-3709286e1e01_860x573.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lRJ!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F999c70b6-ccb3-453a-abb2-3709286e1e01_860x573.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lRJ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F999c70b6-ccb3-453a-abb2-3709286e1e01_860x573.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lRJ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F999c70b6-ccb3-453a-abb2-3709286e1e01_860x573.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Voor Chinese banken wordt het nu aantrekkelijker om gebruik te maken van de digitale renminbi. Deze wijzigingen hebben te maken met een verschijnsel genaamd &#8216;disintermediation&#8217;. Daar hadden de liefhebbers al kennis mee kunnen maken dankzij </span><a href="https://www.koninklijkhuis.nl/documenten/2022/10/14/koningin-maxima-houdt-een-toespraak-bij-het-imf-evenement-cbdc-and-financial-inclusion-risks-and-rewards-bij-de-jaarvergadering-van-het-imf-en-de-wereldbank-in-washington-dc"><span>de toespraak</span></a><span> van M&#225;xima bij een evenement van het IMF, op 15 oktober 2022.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Disintermediation is het verschijnsel dat burgers grote hoeveelheden geld in CBDC gaan aanhouden, in plaats van dat ze het op een reguliere bankrekening stallen, in Nederland vooral ABN Amro, ING en Rabobank. Die banken kunnen spaargeld vaker dan een keer uitlenen, een verschijnsel genaamd fractional reserve banking. Centrale banken op hun beurt kunnen de economie sturen, door banken te stimuleren om meer of minder uit te lenen aan hun eigen klanten. Voor monetair beleid zijn centrale banken dus afhankelijk van de geldscheppende functie van de particuliere banken.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dat geeft een rare tegenstelling. Centrale banken voeren een digitale vorm van de nationale munt in, omdat het gebruik van contant geld terugloopt. Op die manier blijven ze relevant in het betaalverkeer en ze verdienen er ook gewoon geld mee, dankzij seigniorage. Maar als burgers massaal geld bij de bestaande spaarbanken weghalen om het op een CBDC-rekening te storten dan lopen die letterlijk leeg. Dat is disintermediation. Banken kunnen hun rol in het scheppen van krediet dan niet meer uitvoeren en de centrale bank is dan een middel kwijt om monetair beleid uit te voeren. Het is dus de bedoeling dat burgers CBDC een beetje gaan gebruiken, maar niet veel - dat komt dus tegenstrijdig over. M&#225;xima pleitte in haar speech voor overheidsbeleid dat de banken beschermt tegen te grote concurrentie, een rare actie als we uitgaan van een ceremonieel koningshuis.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De Europese Centrale Bank (ECB) denkt daarom aan een maximaal tegoed van drieduizend euro voor elke burger. Als er meer geld dan het limiet op een rekening wordt gestort, dan gaat dat automatisch over naar de bankrekening die mensen toch al hadden. De rekening bij de centrale bank wordt dus gekoppeld aan een bestaande bankrekening. Als de rente op die rekening negatief is, kunnen mensen dus niet naar CBDC vluchten voor negatieve rente. Zo maakt de ECB, net als de PBOC, een vorm van geld waar mensen niet mee mogen sparen. Kunnen sparen is een kernfunctie van geld en als dit verdwijnt ontstaat er met CBDC een nutteloos product, vanuit de burger gedacht.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Omdat de e-CNY niet van de grond kwam, zijn de voorwaarden versoepeld. In de kern verdwijnt in China het onderscheid tussen CBDC en het geld dat er al was. Voor de gemiddelde Nederlander is het uiterst relevant. Het blijkt maar dat de voorwaarden van een digitale munt met een druk op de knop aangepast kunnen worden. Alle waarborgen die burgers nu verbaal krijgen toegediend om onrust te voorkomen (&#8216;het geld wordt niet programmeerbaar&#8217;, &#8216;de privacy is goed geregeld&#8217;, &#8216;je zult nooit negatieve rente krijgen&#8217;) zijn daarom ook waardeloze doekjes voor het bloeden.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="https://www.jri.co.jp/en/MediaLibrary/file/english/periodical/jrirj/2026/13/katsurada.pdf"><span>Het artikel van Katsurada leest u hier</span></a><span>.

Microsoft kreeg toen een boete van de EU wegens het overtreden van de mededingingsregels. Kroes was eerst landelijk politicus en twee keer eurocommissaris: ze deed eerst de interne markt (mededinging) en daarna kreeg ze een nieuwe portefeuille, digitale zaken. Toenmalig voorzitter van de Europese Commissie (EC) Barroso bedacht deze functie vrij laat. Inmiddels heeft de EC elk onderwerp gedegradeerd tot een digitale kwestie, zodat alles gereguleerd kan worden vanuit Brussel, het zal u niet zijn ontgaan. Dat is even een ander onderwerp.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Kroes verliet Brussel in november 2014 en trad in mei 2016 in dienst bij Uber.

Die is in de Europese politiek ingesteld, om belangenverstrengeling te voorkomen. Je kunt niet een dag na een Europese publieke functie in dienst treden bij een bedrijf dat evident wat te winnen heeft bij een lobby van een politiek zwaargewicht. De afkoelperiode zorgt voor afstand.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Uber probeerde wereldwijd voet aan de grond te krijgen en kreeg het geregeld aan de stok met lokale toezichthouders; lees daarvoor de &#8216;</span><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/news/series/uber-files"><span>Uber files</span></a><span>&#8217; van het </span><em><span>International Consortium of Investigative Journalists</span></em><span> (ICIJ). Het is dan handig als je wat politieke kopstukken in de arm neemt, dat doe je niet omdat ze zo veel weten van taxi&#8217;s. Barroso is bijvoorbeeld in dienst getreden bij Goldman Sachs. En voormalig collega Viviane Reding, verantwoordelijk voor justitie, trad in november 2014 even dienst bij het mijnbouwbedrijf Nyrstar dat in een reeks rechtszaken was verwikkeld wegens het (vermeende) overtreden van milieuregels. Reding heeft sociologie gestudeerd, dan is het een bijzondere stap om bij een mijnbouwbedrijf te gaan werken.

Dat bedrijf zit alleen niet in het uiteindelijke staatsbezoek dat, wel, voor de premier behoorlijk inspannend moet zijn geweest.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ur4o!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81c01e43-cdd5-423c-ab39-0e27ac08e107_636x728.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ur4o!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81c01e43-cdd5-423c-ab39-0e27ac08e107_636x728.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ur4o!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81c01e43-cdd5-423c-ab39-0e27ac08e107_636x728.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ur4o!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81c01e43-cdd5-423c-ab39-0e27ac08e107_636x728.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ur4o!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81c01e43-cdd5-423c-ab39-0e27ac08e107_636x728.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ur4o!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81c01e43-cdd5-423c-ab39-0e27ac08e107_636x728.png" width="636" height="728" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/81c01e43-cdd5-423c-ab39-0e27ac08e107_636x728.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:728,&quot;width&quot;:636,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ur4o!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81c01e43-cdd5-423c-ab39-0e27ac08e107_636x728.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ur4o!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81c01e43-cdd5-423c-ab39-0e27ac08e107_636x728.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ur4o!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81c01e43-cdd5-423c-ab39-0e27ac08e107_636x728.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ur4o!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81c01e43-cdd5-423c-ab39-0e27ac08e107_636x728.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het schijnt dat Kalanick een &#8216;war room&#8217; had in zijn eigen hoofdkantoor.

Nederland is economisch gezien echt geen misselijk land, maar er liggen toch echt grotere jongens in de buurt. Het voordeel van een hoofdkantoor in Nederland is dat je met winsten kunt schuiven om zo bijna geen belasting te betalen. Dat gaat via deelnemingsvrijstelling (DNV).</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Grote bedrijven hebben een reeks aan dochterondernemingen en tussenholdings. Dat geldt al voor de Albert Heijn. Als een dochter winst overboekt naar een moederbedrijf, moet daar belasting over worden betaald. De topholding mag die dan weer verrekenen, zodat je geen dubbele belasting betaalt. Dat is een hoop administratieve rompslomp en daarom is er DNV. Als een dochterbedrijf eenmaal belasting heeft betaald over een gemaakte euro winst, ergens in de keten, dan kan die zonder verdere belasting worden doorgestort aan gelieerde bedrijven. Op zich is het logisch.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Nederland heeft de bedenkelijke reputatie een belastingparadijs te zijn. Het is ook goed mogelijk dat een buitenlands bedrijf dat niets met Nederland heeft, een piepklein kantoor in Amsterdam opent en dat tot hoofdkantoor bombardeert. Dan krijg je Nederlandse fiscale voordelen, zoals DNV, zonder dat je hier echt zit. De fiscus hier controleert daarop en wil wel graag een echt bedrijf zien, geen lege huls dat er enkel om fiscale redenen zit.

Dan is het toegestaan om die verliezen te verrekenen met toekomstige winsten, als u het overleeft. Het is vervolgens ook mogelijk dat u nu 100 verlies maakt maar volgend jaar een winst van 100. Over dat laatste bedrag zou je in Nederland dus 25 aan belasting moeten betalen. Het is toegestaan om het ene verlies van 100 te verrekenen met de winst van 100. Over de twee jaren samen betaal je dan niets, maar er was opgeteld ook geen winst, eerlijk is eerlijk. Het maken van verlies levert dus een joker op, in te zetten op een toekomstig moment.

De Nederlandse fiscus moet accepteren dat bezittingen en verliezen die overduidelijk niet hun herkomst hebben in Nederland, wel in een Nederlands bedrijf geparkeerd mogen worden. Dat geeft Uber een enorm voordeel. Daardoor is de totale belasting veel lager dan die anders zou zijn. Uiteindelijk gaat het hier om de commissies die zijn verdiend op ritten van chauffeurs over de hele wereld, vooral Azi&#235;. Het was dus nooit aan Nederland om het te belasten, we zijn slechts een handig fiscaal tussenstation. Een voordeel dat nooit van jou is geweest is geen verlies als je het niet krijgt. Klinkt filosofisch maar het werkt wel zo, ook bij fiscaal recht.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Kroes lijkt echt te geloven dat Kalanick haar speciaal vond; dat ze eventjes de premier de War Room in moest trekken en dat Nederland en Uber samen reizen naar Mars mogelijk gingen maken.

Zoals u gisteren kon lezen, kan Spanje ze niet tegenhouden </span><a href="https://arnowellens.substack.com/p/tienduizenden-illegale-migranten"><span>omdat ze zwemmen</span></a><span>. Wat is dat voor raar verhaal? De rechter in Spanje besloot dat wie binnen zwemt, niet letterlijk inbreekt. Zwemmen is nu niet langer hetzelfde als klimmen. Een migrant die een grenshek doorknipt breekt wel inl maar op zee zijn er geen hekken, inderdaad. Wie wel inbreekt, krijgt geen recht om asiel aan te vragen. Dat heb je nodig als je vanaf de exclave in Afrika het Europees vasteland wenst te bereiken. Door de uitspraak van de rechter hadden tienduizenden mensen door dat ze niet over of door het grenshek moesten klimmen maar dat zwemles nemen de uitkomst bood.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Daar komt bij dat de koning van Marokko recentelijk gratie heeft verleend aan duizenden gevangenen. Dat deed hij als teken van coulance bij de viering van zijn troonsbestijging. In totaal 1.679 gevangenen mochten eerder naar buiten. In de regel gaat het dan om dieven en drugsdealers, niet om moordenaars en verkrachters. De recente instroom, het pardon en de uitspraak van de Spaanse rechter vallen samen in slechts enkele weken. Daarom mag je aannemen dat er onder de recente migranten ook criminelen zitten die net uit de gevangenis zijn gewandeld. Door de chaos is er geen enkele mogelijkheid om mensen aan een screening te onderwerpen en is het wachten tot ze in andere landen in de Schengenzone voor ellende gaan zorgen.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Om dan toch een klein beetje reclame te maken voor mijn boek </span><a href="https://www.bravenewbooks.nl/site/?r=userwebsite/index&amp;id=arnowellens/"><span>Het Euro Evangelie</span></a><span>: dit had je kunnen zien aankomen. De EU draait om drie grote projecten met weeffouten. Ten eerste is er een muntunie zonder politieke unie. Dat betekent dat overtreders niet kunnen worden aangepakt, als ze met wanbeleid een kredietcrisis voor iedereen riskeren. Er is wel een procedure om het breken van de begrotingsregels te bestraffen, maar daarbij zit de overtreder aan tafel. Die mag over de straf voor het eigen land meedenken, maar ook die van andere landen met een te groot begrotingstekort. Nederland kan dan streng zijn, maar Frankrijk kan Spanje voor een straf behoeden en later gebeurt het tegenovergestelde. Op die manier heb je constant te maken met begrotingstekorten, het is nooit over.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Daarnaast regelt de EU dat er een interne markt is met vrij verkeer van goederen. Vervolgens tekent de EU handelsverdragen met landen waar andere milieunormen gelden, denk aan de Chinese industrie op kolen en de Oekra&#239;ense plofkip. Producenten in de lidstaat krijgen een groter afzetgebied dankzij de EU binnen Europa, maar krijgen te maken met concurrentie uit andere landen waar ze het tegen afleggen. Per saldo hebben producenten hier enkel last van en daarom vertrekken ze of gaan ze ten onder. Het zou redelijk zijn dat regels die voor interne productie gelden, ook gelden voor import. Daar wordt nog steeds over nagedacht, meer niet.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ea7P!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcea71524-94ed-4496-9640-273272fb36f6_1456x836.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ea7P!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcea71524-94ed-4496-9640-273272fb36f6_1456x836.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ea7P!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcea71524-94ed-4496-9640-273272fb36f6_1456x836.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ea7P!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcea71524-94ed-4496-9640-273272fb36f6_1456x836.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ea7P!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcea71524-94ed-4496-9640-273272fb36f6_1456x836.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ea7P!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcea71524-94ed-4496-9640-273272fb36f6_1456x836.png" width="1456" height="836" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/cea71524-94ed-4496-9640-273272fb36f6_1456x836.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:836,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ea7P!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcea71524-94ed-4496-9640-273272fb36f6_1456x836.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ea7P!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcea71524-94ed-4496-9640-273272fb36f6_1456x836.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ea7P!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcea71524-94ed-4496-9640-273272fb36f6_1456x836.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ea7P!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcea71524-94ed-4496-9640-273272fb36f6_1456x836.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>En dan is er migratie. Als lid van de EU moet Nederland de eigen grensbewaking ontmantelen, dat is het Schengenverdrag (hierboven). In alle redelijkheid moet je dan wel praten over het organiseren van een gemeenschappelijke buitengrens. De grens van Nederland is die van Spanje en Marokko geworden, dat is de praktische consequentie van Schengen. Die bewaking van de Europese buitengrens is nooit van de grond gekomen, de gevolgen laten zich raden. De EU schiet tekort op elk van de drie vlakken maar migratie lijkt het meest in het oog te springen.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Omdat de EU de eigen grenzen niet bewaakt, is het collectief afhankelijk van derden. Zo is er de Turkijedeal, waarbij Erdogan in ruil voor miljarden euro&#8217;s beloofde de migratiecrisis vanaf zijn grondgebied te beperken. Een gevaarlijk precedent, want hij kan de EU nu afpersen. Turkije heeft een financieel belang bij op zijn minst het risico van het weer oplaaien van een lokale migratiecrisis. Dat is een uiterst zwakke basis voor het gewenste stabiele migratiebeleid. In theorie kan Erdogan een nieuwe migratiecrisis uitlokken, als hij geld heeft. Via diplomatieke druk houden Europese landen hem weg van dat pad. Dan kun je niet zeggen dat er sprake is van een stevige Europese positie, dat je &#8216;samen sterk&#8217; bent: integendeel.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De vluchtelingencrisis vanuit Turkije eindigde toen Erdogan inderdaad besloot mee te werken. Een land met een fatsoenlijke legermacht en een politieapparaat is prima in staat om een chaotische situatie te voorkomen. Als dat niet gebeurt, is dat opzet. Erdogan is gepaaid met enkele miljarden en sindsdien verplaatst het circus van de mensensmokkel zich naar andere locaties. Overigens kan Erdogan niet openlijk toegeven dat hij de EU afperst met een migratiecrisis.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het overmaken van geld en het bekrachtigen van afspraken gebeurt met stille diplomatie, achter gesloten deuren. Soms is daar sprake van irritatie, waarvan het voor de buitenwereld niet te zien is wat er speelt. Zo besloot Erdogan bij het oplossen van de Turkse migratiecrisis om nog even zijn gram te halen bij de Europese commissievoorzitter Ursula von der Leyen. Bij een bespreking kreeg ze geen stoel aangeboden, een vernedering die de Turkse president op camera liet vastleggen. Het is nog steeds niet duidelijk waarom hij dit nodig vond. In ieder geval laat het zien dat een land of blok van landen zonder migratiebeleid afhankelijk is van de grillen van derden.</span></p><div id="youtube2-zNqWvIX09YA" class="youtube-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;videoId&quot;:&quot;zNqWvIX09YA&quot;,&quot;startTime&quot;:null,&quot;endTime&quot;:null}" data-component-name="Youtube2ToDOM"><div class="youtube-inner"><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/zNqWvIX09YA?rel=0&amp;autoplay=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;enablejsapi=0" frameborder="0" loading="lazy" gesture="media" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowautoplay="true" allowfullscreen="true" width="728" height="409"></iframe></div></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Destijds was de Turkse migratiedeal eigenlijk al rond, daarom was dit niet nodig. Vlak voor het uitbreken van de pandemie probeerden grote groepen migranten via de Turkse stad Edirne de EU te bereiken. Waarschijnlijk zorgde de pandemie voor een snellere diplomatieke oplossing. Het leek Erdogan dan niet slim om een migratiecrisis te veroorzaken als er een nog onbekend virus zich aan het verspreiden is. Bij de meeting hierboven ziet u de hoofdrolspelers ook een mondkapje dragen.</span></p><div id="youtube2-hM-LtJD-V80" class="youtube-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;videoId&quot;:&quot;hM-LtJD-V80&quot;,&quot;startTime&quot;:null,&quot;endTime&quot;:null}" data-component-name="Youtube2ToDOM"><div class="youtube-inner"><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/hM-LtJD-V80?rel=0&amp;autoplay=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;enablejsapi=0" frameborder="0" loading="lazy" gesture="media" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowautoplay="true" allowfullscreen="true" width="728" height="409"></iframe></div></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Er is een specifieke reden waarom de migratiecrisis zich bij Edirne afspeelde en niet bij een andere Turkse grensplaats. Griekenland zat destijds in de Schengenzone, buurland Bulgarije niet en Turkije is geen lid van de EU. Dat betekent dat een migrant die over land, de makkelijkste route natuurlijk, vanuit Turkije naar Europa wil, de zwakste plek zoekt in de Europese verdediging. Dat is ergens aan de grens tussen Griekenland en Turkije. Een andere route is er eigenlijk niet, of je moet vanuit Afghanistan of Syri&#235; via Rusland willen reizen. Dat land bewaakt zijn grenzen wel. Elke andere route, bijvoorbeeld via Libi&#235; naar Itali&#235;, vraagt om een veel ingewikkelder route via het water. In 2021 zat Bulgarije nog niet bij de Schengenzone, de lichtblauwe landen, inmiddels wel. Om de Schengenzone te bereiken, was het de kunst om te zoeken naar de meest logische oversteek tussen Griekenland en Turkije.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7xp2!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F37bad2a0-6dee-4e02-88a4-55072c953ccc_820x575.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7xp2!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F37bad2a0-6dee-4e02-88a4-55072c953ccc_820x575.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7xp2!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F37bad2a0-6dee-4e02-88a4-55072c953ccc_820x575.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7xp2!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F37bad2a0-6dee-4e02-88a4-55072c953ccc_820x575.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7xp2!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F37bad2a0-6dee-4e02-88a4-55072c953ccc_820x575.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7xp2!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F37bad2a0-6dee-4e02-88a4-55072c953ccc_820x575.png" width="820" height="575" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/37bad2a0-6dee-4e02-88a4-55072c953ccc_820x575.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:575,&quot;width&quot;:820,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7xp2!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F37bad2a0-6dee-4e02-88a4-55072c953ccc_820x575.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7xp2!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F37bad2a0-6dee-4e02-88a4-55072c953ccc_820x575.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7xp2!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F37bad2a0-6dee-4e02-88a4-55072c953ccc_820x575.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7xp2!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F37bad2a0-6dee-4e02-88a4-55072c953ccc_820x575.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Er is iets bijzonders aan de hand met de grens tussen Griekenland en Turkije, specifiek bij Edirne.

In een poging zijn immense land te moderniseren, wilde hij een spoorlijn naar Wenen aanleggen. De betrekkingen met de Habsburgers waren na eeuwen van oorlog verbeterd en beide landen zouden daarna zelfs militaire bondgenoten worden. De Sultan schreef een aanbesteding uit. Iedereen mocht een plan indienen voor een spoorlijn, de Orient Express. Daarmee moesten bedrijven en hun ingenieurs zelf een trac&#233; bedenken, plannen maken voor bruggen over rivieren en met een realistisch kostenplaatje op de proppen komen. De jonge Belgische ondernemer Andr&#233; Langrand-Dumonceau won de aanbesteding met onderstaand plan. Merk op dat Edirne een station zou krijgen, naar de eis van de sultan.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IKK9!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4e6327b0-07cc-42a8-83e0-822dc0b567d1_1000x670.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IKK9!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4e6327b0-07cc-42a8-83e0-822dc0b567d1_1000x670.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IKK9!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4e6327b0-07cc-42a8-83e0-822dc0b567d1_1000x670.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IKK9!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4e6327b0-07cc-42a8-83e0-822dc0b567d1_1000x670.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IKK9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4e6327b0-07cc-42a8-83e0-822dc0b567d1_1000x670.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IKK9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4e6327b0-07cc-42a8-83e0-822dc0b567d1_1000x670.png" width="1000" height="670" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/4e6327b0-07cc-42a8-83e0-822dc0b567d1_1000x670.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:670,&quot;width&quot;:1000,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IKK9!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4e6327b0-07cc-42a8-83e0-822dc0b567d1_1000x670.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IKK9!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4e6327b0-07cc-42a8-83e0-822dc0b567d1_1000x670.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IKK9!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4e6327b0-07cc-42a8-83e0-822dc0b567d1_1000x670.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IKK9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4e6327b0-07cc-42a8-83e0-822dc0b567d1_1000x670.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Achteraf bleek dat de gunst van de sultan was gewonnen met een plan waarvan de kosten veel te optimistisch waren ingeschat. Toen de bouwers vanuit Wenen bij Edirne waren aangekomen, bleek dat er geen geld meer was. Het budget klopte gewoon niet. Zo win je de aanbesteding misschien, maar later kom je dus in de problemen. Er moest nog een brug over de rivier gebouwd worden naar Edirne, was de afspraak met de Sultan. Een spoorbrug is natuurlijk veel steviger dan een brug voor voetgangers en paarden, maar ook duurder. En de Belgische ondernemer had geen rooie cent meer. Wat nu? Hij verzon een list.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Op de kaart van Edirne, hierboven, ziet u een klein dorpje aan de andere kant van de rivier liggen genaamd Karaa&#287;a&#231;. Daar wonen nu 3.000 mensen, tegen 180.000 keer zo veel als in de stad Edirne. Langrand-Dumonceau besloot daar een station neer te zetten en met het geld dat hij nog had, een goedkope voetgangersbrug naar de overkant te bouwen. Turken uit Edirne moesten dus een paar kilometer met hun koffers lopen, de brug over, voordat ze van de nieuwe trein gebruik konden maken. Strikt genomen had de sultan het gewenste station in de buurt van Edirne, maar eigenlijk was dit niet de afspraak. Het is onduidelijk hoe hij hierop reageerde.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Financier Langrand-Dumonceau had toen al de benen genomen. Hij beschikte over een reeks financi&#235;le bedrijven, maar hij gebruikte bezit in het ene bedrijf om gaten elders te dichten. Tijdens de financi&#235;le crisis van 1870 ging hij failliet en tot zijn dood in 1900 moest hij vluchten voor schuldeisers. Het Ottomaanse Rijk brokkelde daarna af en bij het verdrag van Lausanne werden de huidige Turkse grenzen getrokken. Waar mogelijk werden die zichtbaar gevormd door natuurlijke barri&#232;res, behalve bij Edirne. De Turkse onderhandelaars kregen de Grieken zo ver dat ze afstand deden van het stuk land bij Karaa&#287;a&#231;, anders zou Edirne geen station meer hebben. Daarom zit er een homp Turks land aan de Griekse kant van de rivier.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OLhp!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc0a47994-ae5d-45f0-9273-c1d6db500f83_523x382.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OLhp!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc0a47994-ae5d-45f0-9273-c1d6db500f83_523x382.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OLhp!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc0a47994-ae5d-45f0-9273-c1d6db500f83_523x382.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OLhp!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc0a47994-ae5d-45f0-9273-c1d6db500f83_523x382.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OLhp!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc0a47994-ae5d-45f0-9273-c1d6db500f83_523x382.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OLhp!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc0a47994-ae5d-45f0-9273-c1d6db500f83_523x382.png" width="523" height="382" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/c0a47994-ae5d-45f0-9273-c1d6db500f83_523x382.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:382,&quot;width&quot;:523,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OLhp!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc0a47994-ae5d-45f0-9273-c1d6db500f83_523x382.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OLhp!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc0a47994-ae5d-45f0-9273-c1d6db500f83_523x382.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OLhp!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc0a47994-ae5d-45f0-9273-c1d6db500f83_523x382.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OLhp!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc0a47994-ae5d-45f0-9273-c1d6db500f83_523x382.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Navraag bij de Turkse spoorwegen (de kaart hierboven) leert dat de rare situatie van een station dat aan de verkeerde kant van de rivier ligt, pas in 1971 is opgelost met de bouw van een nieuw station in Edirne zelf.

In ieder geval verklaart het klungelige handelen van een Belg in 1868 waarom er nu een stukje Turkije aan de overkant van de Maritsa ligt, de grens is intussen niet aangepast.

De leider heet Brahim Ghali (onder) en u raadt het al, hij krijgt in 2021 het vleermuisvirus.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Vgct!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbf0f5fc9-2e88-4b43-8bd9-1f38bf40ed59_754x615.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Vgct!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbf0f5fc9-2e88-4b43-8bd9-1f38bf40ed59_754x615.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Vgct!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbf0f5fc9-2e88-4b43-8bd9-1f38bf40ed59_754x615.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Vgct!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbf0f5fc9-2e88-4b43-8bd9-1f38bf40ed59_754x615.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Vgct!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbf0f5fc9-2e88-4b43-8bd9-1f38bf40ed59_754x615.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Vgct!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbf0f5fc9-2e88-4b43-8bd9-1f38bf40ed59_754x615.png" width="754" height="615" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/bf0f5fc9-2e88-4b43-8bd9-1f38bf40ed59_754x615.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:615,&quot;width&quot;:754,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Vgct!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbf0f5fc9-2e88-4b43-8bd9-1f38bf40ed59_754x615.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Vgct!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbf0f5fc9-2e88-4b43-8bd9-1f38bf40ed59_754x615.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Vgct!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbf0f5fc9-2e88-4b43-8bd9-1f38bf40ed59_754x615.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Vgct!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbf0f5fc9-2e88-4b43-8bd9-1f38bf40ed59_754x615.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Hij opereert dan vanuit Algerije, ook dat hoeft niet te verbazen.

We houden het even bij migratie. De inwoners van veel lidstaten, ook Nederland, willen een strenger migratiebeleid. In Spanje zit een premier die juist migranten lokt en een Spaans paspoort is voor een migrant hetzelfde als een Nederlands paspoort, het effect van Schengen. Door een bizar progressief Spaans hooggerechtshof heeft elke illegale migrant met een zwemdiploma vrij spel. De Europese buitengrenzen worden niet bewaakt, waardoor de EU als geheel afhankelijk is van landen aan de randen, specifiek Marokko en Turkije. Het lokale staatshoofd kan soms ge&#239;rriteerd zijn, terecht of niet. Door het afwezig zijn van Europese grensbewaking heeft hij dan wel heel snel een stok gevonden om mee te slaan.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QVSa!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9687b65-85b9-44bb-8ef9-f7de35c82086_977x576.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QVSa!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9687b65-85b9-44bb-8ef9-f7de35c82086_977x576.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QVSa!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9687b65-85b9-44bb-8ef9-f7de35c82086_977x576.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QVSa!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9687b65-85b9-44bb-8ef9-f7de35c82086_977x576.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QVSa!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9687b65-85b9-44bb-8ef9-f7de35c82086_977x576.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QVSa!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9687b65-85b9-44bb-8ef9-f7de35c82086_977x576.png" width="977" height="576" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/e9687b65-85b9-44bb-8ef9-f7de35c82086_977x576.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:576,&quot;width&quot;:977,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QVSa!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9687b65-85b9-44bb-8ef9-f7de35c82086_977x576.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QVSa!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9687b65-85b9-44bb-8ef9-f7de35c82086_977x576.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QVSa!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9687b65-85b9-44bb-8ef9-f7de35c82086_977x576.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QVSa!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9687b65-85b9-44bb-8ef9-f7de35c82086_977x576.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Als de EU open binnengrenzen heeft maar de buitengrenzen niet bewaakt, wordt het geheel juist zwakker ten opzichte van de rest van de wereld, niet sterker.

De huidige koning Mohammed VI besteeg in 1999 de troon. Bij protesten naar aanleiding van de Arabische Lente ging hij in op eisen van betogers. Zo veranderde hij de grondwet en trad hij harder op tegen corruptie, wat een merkbaar effect op de economie had. Het toerisme nam ook toe waardoor er nu elk jaar twintig miljoen mensen het land bezoeken. De landbouw maakt een comeback en daarnaast is er fors in infrastructuur ge&#239;nvesteerd.

</span><a href="https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SL.UEM.TOTL.ZS?locations=MA"><span>de werkloosheid</span></a><span> daalde naar structureel minder dan tien procent. Het nationaal inkomen per hoofd van de bevolking is sinds 1999 meer dan verdrievoudigd naar bijna vijfduizend dollar per jaar. Naar Afrikaanse begrippen is dat bijzonder hoog. De laatste jaren is er een opmerkelijke groeispurt zichtbaar. De pandemie zorgde in 2021 voor een recessie, maar dat is meer dan gecorrigeerd. De investeringen in de infrastructuur hebben wel gezorgd voor een hogere staatsschuld, maar die ligt in Marokko met zeventig procent nog ver onder het Europees gemiddelde. Bovendien hielpen de investeringen om de economie daadwerkelijk te laten groeien, dan is er niets aan de hand. In Marokko liggen economische kansen.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tm9C!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F79f3a008-5a29-417e-b7e2-38ba7ff7504f_810x689.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tm9C!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F79f3a008-5a29-417e-b7e2-38ba7ff7504f_810x689.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tm9C!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F79f3a008-5a29-417e-b7e2-38ba7ff7504f_810x689.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tm9C!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F79f3a008-5a29-417e-b7e2-38ba7ff7504f_810x689.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tm9C!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F79f3a008-5a29-417e-b7e2-38ba7ff7504f_810x689.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tm9C!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F79f3a008-5a29-417e-b7e2-38ba7ff7504f_810x689.png" width="810" height="689" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/79f3a008-5a29-417e-b7e2-38ba7ff7504f_810x689.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:689,&quot;width&quot;:810,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tm9C!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F79f3a008-5a29-417e-b7e2-38ba7ff7504f_810x689.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tm9C!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F79f3a008-5a29-417e-b7e2-38ba7ff7504f_810x689.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tm9C!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F79f3a008-5a29-417e-b7e2-38ba7ff7504f_810x689.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tm9C!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F79f3a008-5a29-417e-b7e2-38ba7ff7504f_810x689.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Sinds deze maand is in de EU het </span><a href="https://arnowellens.substack.com/p/d66-wil-helemaal-geen-strenger-migratiebeleid"><span>Migratiepact</span></a><span> van kracht. Asielaanvragen uit veilige landen, zoals Marokko, kunnen in eigen land worden afgewacht. Dat maakt het voor een Europees land mogelijk om de aanvraag te behandelen, zonder dat iemand hier al aanwezig is. In de praktijk stapelen veel asielzoekers uit veilige landen de ene procedure op de andere en krijgen ze intussen soms kinderen. Dan zijn ze zo geworteld, dat ze uiteindelijk mogen blijven. Het Migratiepact steekt daar een stokje voor. Deze zwemkampioenen kozen daarom voor deze oplossing.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het Migratiepact valt of staat met de wens van de lidstaten om iets aan illegale migratie te doen. De nieuwe regels geven handvatten aan lokale regeringsleiders die er eerst niet waren. Spanje is natuurlijk een uiterst belangrijk land, omdat het deels in Afrika ligt. Naar Finland zwemmen zal voor de meesten iets te uitdagend zijn. Het heeft er alles van weg dat de Spaanse regering helemaal niets wil doen aan illegale migratie: dat ze hier eigenlijk wel blij mee zijn.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Spanje heeft met Pedro Sanchez een socialistische premier. In eigen land ligt hij door meerdere corruptieschandalen onder vuur. Volgens zijn eigen lezing is zijn economisch beleid een succes. Spanje heeft een positief migratiesaldo van meer dan 600.000 mensen per jaar, bij een kindertal per vrouw van 1,1. Dat is de helft van het aantal dat nodig is om de autochtone bevolking niet te laten krimpen. Sanchez wil de vergrijzing dus oplossen met migratie.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gsf9!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb823c38b-d98e-43da-82bf-fe84d9398d3d_485x739.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gsf9!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb823c38b-d98e-43da-82bf-fe84d9398d3d_485x739.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gsf9!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb823c38b-d98e-43da-82bf-fe84d9398d3d_485x739.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gsf9!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb823c38b-d98e-43da-82bf-fe84d9398d3d_485x739.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gsf9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb823c38b-d98e-43da-82bf-fe84d9398d3d_485x739.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gsf9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb823c38b-d98e-43da-82bf-fe84d9398d3d_485x739.png" width="485" height="739" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/b823c38b-d98e-43da-82bf-fe84d9398d3d_485x739.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:739,&quot;width&quot;:485,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gsf9!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb823c38b-d98e-43da-82bf-fe84d9398d3d_485x739.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gsf9!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb823c38b-d98e-43da-82bf-fe84d9398d3d_485x739.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gsf9!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb823c38b-d98e-43da-82bf-fe84d9398d3d_485x739.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gsf9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb823c38b-d98e-43da-82bf-fe84d9398d3d_485x739.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Een van de grootste criticasters van Sanchez is de persoonlijk bekende econoom Daniel Lacalle.

Immers, wie eenmaal in Spanje is, legaal of niet, krijgt uiteindelijk gewoon een paspoort voor de hele EU. De meeste EU-landen zijn strenger geworden als het om migratie gaat, maar Spanje niet. Dan heeft het eerste weinig zin, als je open grenzen hebt.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Waarom is het redelijk om te verwachten dat de duizenden of tienduizenden zwemmers wel degelijk binnenkort in Ter Apel te verwachten zijn? Dat heeft met een aantal zaken te maken en het algemene beleid van Pedro Sanchez hoort daar zeker bij. Maar ook heeft het Spaanse Hooggerechtshof op </span><a href="https://www.elindependiente.com/espana/2026/07/30/claves-ceuta-sentencia-supremo-devoluciones-caliente/"><span>8 juli</span></a><span> van dit jaar bepaald, dat migranten die Spaans grondgebied zwemmend bereiken, niet zomaar mogen worden teruggestuurd.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In theorie heeft een migrant die Spanje illegaal bereikt door bijvoorbeeld een grenshek door te knippen, niet direct recht om asiel aan te vragen. De uitspraak van 8 juli hield nu in, dat zwemmend arriveren niet valt onder het vernielen van een &#8220;elemento de contenci&#243;n fronterizo&#8221;. Praktisch betekent dit dat een zwemmer anders wordt behandeld dan iemand die een grenshek doorknipt. Het is lastig voor te stellen dat de migranten die recentelijk drijvend zijn binnengekomen, daar niet van op de hoogte zijn. Ze kunnen dus allemaal asiel aanvragen. Het recente Migratiepact regelt inderdaad dat het Spanje is toegestaan om asielaanvragen vanuit een derde land af te handelen. De mensen op de beelden van vandaag zijn echter al in Spanje en daarmee de EU.</span></p><div id="youtube2-GsMXmjEFAkk" class="youtube-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;videoId&quot;:&quot;GsMXmjEFAkk&quot;,&quot;startTime&quot;:null,&quot;endTime&quot;:null}" data-component-name="Youtube2ToDOM"><div class="youtube-inner"><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/GsMXmjEFAkk?rel=0&amp;autoplay=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;enablejsapi=0" frameborder="0" loading="lazy" gesture="media" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowautoplay="true" allowfullscreen="true" width="728" height="409"></iframe></div></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>UNHCR heeft een </span><a href="https://help.unhcr.org/spain/solicitar-asilo-en-espana/solicitud-de-asilo-en-puestos-fronterizos-y-en-centros-de-internamiento-de-extranjeros-cies/"><span>Spaanstalige pagina</span></a><span> gemaakt, waarop migranten wordt uitgelegd hoe ze asiel moeten aanvragen. Daar is ook een Arabische versie van en tevens is er deze handige uitlegvideo, helemaal mooi.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het is de bedoeling dat asielzoekers zich melden bij de autoriteiten voor bescherming. De procedure kan tot achttien maanden in beslag nemen. Door massaal de grens over te steken, hebben de migranten bereikt dat Ceuta de aanvragen nooit binnen afzienbare tijd kan afwerken. Het is dan gebruikelijk dat ze naar het Spaanse vasteland worden overgebracht. Daar hebben ze het recht om zich te verplaatsen en omdat Spanje in de Schengenzone zit, kunnen ze ook naar Nederland. Het is mogelijk om het eigen paspoort weg te gooien en te verzwijgen dat je al in een ander Europees land asiel hebt aangevraagd.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Nederland behandelt je dan als een recente vluchteling, niet wetende dat je elders al asiel hebt aangevraagd. De vermeende moordenaar van de 17-jarige Lisa uit Abcoude gebruikte deze methode ook. Hij kwam hier via Frankrijk uit Nigeria, een land dat als veilig is beoordeeld en goede contacten onderhoudt met Parijs. Hij had nooit in Nederland asiel mogen aanvragen maar de controle daarop is zo lek als een mandje. Als je je eigen papieren weggooit en niet zegt wie je bent, dan biedt Nederland je toch gewoon onderdak. De recente migranten in Ceuta zullen daar zeker van op de hoogte zijn.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In de Schengenzone geldt de zogeheten Dublinconventie. De vluchteling vraagt asiel aan in het land van aankomst en kan dus niet gaan &#8216;shoppen&#8217;. De realiteit is dat dat wel gebeurt. Een asielaanvraag is voor de recente binnenkomers in Ceuta een ticket naar het Spaanse vasteland en daarmee de EU. Daarna kunnen ze in de illegaliteit verdwijnen, of wachten tot Sanchez ze via een volgend generaal pardon toch een Spaans en daarmee Europees paspoort geeft. Het klopt dat je naast het bereiken van Ceuta, ook een manier moet bedenken om vanaf daar het Europese vasteland te bereiken. Daar is de asielprocedure dus voor bedoeld.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BuTI!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F460f2dfd-a9c9-409b-bfeb-86473386454b_478x654.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BuTI!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F460f2dfd-a9c9-409b-bfeb-86473386454b_478x654.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BuTI!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F460f2dfd-a9c9-409b-bfeb-86473386454b_478x654.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BuTI!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F460f2dfd-a9c9-409b-bfeb-86473386454b_478x654.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BuTI!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F460f2dfd-a9c9-409b-bfeb-86473386454b_478x654.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BuTI!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F460f2dfd-a9c9-409b-bfeb-86473386454b_478x654.png" width="478" height="654" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/460f2dfd-a9c9-409b-bfeb-86473386454b_478x654.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:654,&quot;width&quot;:478,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BuTI!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F460f2dfd-a9c9-409b-bfeb-86473386454b_478x654.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BuTI!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F460f2dfd-a9c9-409b-bfeb-86473386454b_478x654.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BuTI!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F460f2dfd-a9c9-409b-bfeb-86473386454b_478x654.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!BuTI!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F460f2dfd-a9c9-409b-bfeb-86473386454b_478x654.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Die zwemmers zijn natuurlijk niet gek. Het is niet zo dat ze het uit sportieve overwegingen deden en nu rustig afwachten tot ze worden teruggestuurd naar Marokko. Wat ze deden vergt moed maar ook verstand. Ze weten dondersgoed: eenmaal op Europese bodem krijg je asiel, een huis en een uitkering en anders een leven in de illegaliteit. Het gaat hier om bijna exclusief jonge mannen die voor deze route kiezen, weg uit Marokko dat juist zulke mooie economische groeicijfers laat zien. Ze kwamen om te blijven, dat is geen &#8216;desinformatie&#8217;. De kans is wel groot dat het eindigt in de illegaliteit. Het zijn dus jonge mannen die dat verkiezen boven een leven in de groeiende Marokkaanse economie, met een politie en rechtsstaat die niet zo mild zijn als hier.

Zoals u eerder las, zijn de lasten van het COA gestegen van 77 miljoen euro in 2005 naar richting de vijf miljard vorig jaar: een toename met een factor zeventig.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QSuT!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42c817ec-9a9b-4180-b988-8153512db50a_892x419.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QSuT!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42c817ec-9a9b-4180-b988-8153512db50a_892x419.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QSuT!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42c817ec-9a9b-4180-b988-8153512db50a_892x419.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QSuT!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42c817ec-9a9b-4180-b988-8153512db50a_892x419.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QSuT!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42c817ec-9a9b-4180-b988-8153512db50a_892x419.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QSuT!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42c817ec-9a9b-4180-b988-8153512db50a_892x419.png" width="892" height="419" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/42c817ec-9a9b-4180-b988-8153512db50a_892x419.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:419,&quot;width&quot;:892,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QSuT!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42c817ec-9a9b-4180-b988-8153512db50a_892x419.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QSuT!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42c817ec-9a9b-4180-b988-8153512db50a_892x419.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QSuT!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42c817ec-9a9b-4180-b988-8153512db50a_892x419.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QSuT!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42c817ec-9a9b-4180-b988-8153512db50a_892x419.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Wat er kort en goed gebeurt, is dat het COA honderdduizend mensen elke nacht moet opvangen. Het gaat om asielzoekers die in de procedure zitten en bijvoorbeeld in beroep zijn gegaan tegen een afwijzing omdat ze uit een veilig land komen. Ook zijn er statushouders voor wie geen huis te vinden is. Het COA is veranderde in een soort enorm hotel, zou je kunnen zeggen.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Intussen zit Nederland op het zogeheten stikstofslot. Door een (te) heftige interpretatie van Europese milieuregels, kan er niet gebouwd worden. Bij veel industri&#235;le activiteit, van landbouw tot het bouwen van woningen, komen er chemische verbindingen met stikstof vrij. Die hebben een negatieve invloed op het milieu. Als lid van de EU heeft Nederland de Natura2000-richtlijn te respecteren. Artikel 6 daarvan regelt compensatie van milieuschade door een bepaald project. Als je huizen wil bouwen in de buurt van een natuurgebied, dan moet iets anders dat invloed heeft op dat gebied, verdwijnen. Er is een verslechteringsverbod, dat betekent dat je elk jaar opnieuw in de knel komt.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Tevens heeft Nederland een spreidingswet. Die regelt dat de Rijksoverheid een gemeente kan aanwijzen om asielzoekers op te vangen. Als er ergens een gebouw vrijkomt, zoals een oude school of een kantoorgebouw, dan kan het COA die locatie vorderen zonder dat de lokale politiek er iets over te zeggen heeft. De gemeente moet het maar oplossen. Niet geheel onverwacht levert dat spanning op. Als je asielzoekers en statushouders te huisvesten hebt en je mag niet bouwen vanwege stikstof, dan stoot je je eigen bewoners een huis uit de mond. Het is een beetje lastig voor te stellen hoe dat letterlijk in zijn werk zou gaan, maar u begrijpt het principe.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Lokale bestuurders kampen al met een tekort aan woningen, want Nederland heeft gewoon een wooncrisis. Vervolgens moet je als burgemeester en wethouders meer mensen opvangen maar je mag geen huizen bouwen. Wat denkt u dan dat er gebeurt? Inderdaad, mensen worden boos. Ook laat de grafiek zien dat er alleen maar meer locaties nodig zijn. Als het COA een buurt voorhoudt dat noodopvang tijdelijk is, dan hou je mensen voor de gek. Die tijdelijkheid is alleen mogelijk als de uitstroom naar een reguliere woning afdoende groot is. Daar is geen sprake van, anders zouden die kosten niet exploderen. Een tijdelijke opvang is altijd permanent.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Migratie is misschien ook een compliment. Maar een groeiende bevolking moet wel ergens wonen. Als Nederland kiest voor open grenzen, veel migratie en een spreidingswet kun je niet ook doen alsof je een stikstofcrisis hebt. Dan zet je mensen tegen elkaar op, ze moeten letterlijk vechten om schaarse huizen. Maak daarom een keuze, laat een van de twee vallen. Doe je dat niet, dan wordt het alleen maar lelijker. Je kunt een gemeente niet eerst verbieden om huizen te bouwen maar wel verwachten dat ze even een paar duizend asielzoekers opvangen. Kijk, dat is nog eens een samenvatting. Nou hoeft u onderstaande video helemaal niet te kijken.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Had u mijn laatste boek trouwens al gelezen?

justify;"><span>Tijd voor wat kritiek, lekker klagen. Maar als het terecht is, mag het. Het programma EenVandaag had een paar dagen geleden (toen was ik even met vakantie) een item over CBDC, ofwel de digitale euro. Het was een wedstrijdje braaf zijn: alle mogelijke kritieken werden weggewuifd als ware het afkomstig van een persoon met het IQ van een stroopwafel. De &#8216;uitlegvideo&#8217; grossiert echter zelf in fouten, we houden het bij de drie grootste. Elke inhoudelijke fout krijgt een eigen artikel.</span></p><div id="youtube2-M7aYR-DGDsY" class="youtube-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;videoId&quot;:&quot;M7aYR-DGDsY&quot;,&quot;startTime&quot;:null,&quot;endTime&quot;:null}" data-component-name="Youtube2ToDOM"><div class="youtube-inner"><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/M7aYR-DGDsY?rel=0&amp;autoplay=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;enablejsapi=0" frameborder="0" loading="lazy" gesture="media" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowautoplay="true" allowfullscreen="true" width="728" height="409"></iframe></div></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>We horen een hoop rare dingen de revu passeren: contant geld zou niet verdwijnen en wees vooral niet bang dat digitaal geld programmeerbaar is. Die bewaren we even. Als je op zoek gaat naar fouten, zijn er natuurlijk kleine, onschuldige versprekingen maar ook grove blunders, zoals emissies van uiterst relevante stukken als offici&#235;le beleidsdocumenten. In deze reeks houden we het bij de laatste.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Op 1:40 zien we een pinpas naast een bankbiljet liggen, voor het geval kijkers niet weten wat het verschil is. Het wordt nog even uitgelegd. Bankbiljetten zijn van de ECB, de Europese centrale bank. Die maakt geen winst terwijl het geld op pinpassen bij commerci&#235;le winstgevende partijen als ING hoort. Daarmee impliceert </span>EenVandaag <span>dat de ECB geen winst maakt, er op CBDC geen winst wordt gemaakt en dat we hier te maken hebben met een relevant onderscheid tussen contant geld van de ECB en digitaal geld van commerci&#235;le banken (misschien wel Amerikaans, eng). Als je het zo uitlegt, ontstaat er een rechtvaardiging voor het programma van de digitale euro. Immers, als je het contante geld van de ECB waar geen winst op wordt gemaakt ook digitaal maakt, dan ontstaat er digitaal geld zonder winstoogmerk. Je zou het bijna willen knuffelen. Letterlijk zegt </span>EenVandaag<span>:</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>&#8216;Het verschil is dat er geen winst meer over wordt gemaakt. Het geld wordt direct uitgegeven door de ECB&#8217;.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dat klopt dus niet, lang verhaal kort. Waarom klopt het niet? De ECB is de optelsom van de centrale banken van de lidstaten van de eurozone. Die zijn in de regel in handen van het lokale ministerie van financi&#235;n, zoals in Nederland. Je mag de ECB best een overheidsinstelling noemen. Het feit dat een bepaalde taak door een overheidsinstelling wordt uitgevoerd, betekent alleen niet automatisch dat er geen sprake is van winst. Een centrale bank kan ook gewoon winst maken.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De Nederlandse centrale bank DNB heeft een proportioneel deel van de aandelen in de Europese centrale bank, de ECB. Net als elk ander bedrijf kan DNB vervolgens </span><a href="https://www.dnb.nl/media/rdolo2sg/84405-2500263-dnb-jaarverslag-2025_compleet_web.pdf"><span>een jaarrekening</span></a><span> opleveren.

In theorie kan de centrale bank zo winst boeken. Meestal gebeurt dat ook, al maakte DNB in het vorige jaar een verlies van een miljard euro. Dat gebeurt als rente en inflatie heftig schommelen, dat is recentelijk gebeurd door de Coronamaatregelen en toegenomen oorlogsdreiging - of gewoon een echte oorlog, zoals in Oekra&#239;ne. Dit aspect laten we even voor nu, het gaat erom dat er gewoon een winst- en verliesrekening is.

Dat klinkt een beetje raar, het is boekhoudkundig jargon voor een bedrijf dat groeit. Zoals hierboven is gesteld, zorgt het uitgeven van geld dat de centrale bank inderdaad groeit. Tegenover de groei aan de passivazijde staat inderdaad een groter wordende hoeveelheid activa waar de centrale bank rente op ontvangt. DNB heeft het in dat kader zelfs over &#8216;maatschappelijke kosten&#8217;. Immers, als de centrale bank ergens winst op maakt, dan pak je die van iemand anders af.

Het maken van geld zorgt ervoor dat de uitgevende instelling zelf ook geld verdient, daar komt het op neer. Het woord &#8216;seigniorage&#8217; komt uit de Middeleeuwen. Destijds had de lokale vorst (de seigneur, vandaar de term) het alleenrecht op het uitgeven van geld. Als je als burger je eigen geld ging maken, dan tastte je het monopolie van de heerser aan en kon je rekenen op een overeenkomstige behandeling.

Daarmee slaat hij tien nieuwe munten, die in de andere staat niet van echt zijn te onderscheiden: het is immers exact dezelfde legering. De handelaar krijgt zijn honderd munten terug en de vorst heeft nu geld verdiend zonder de handelaar een belasting op te leggen. Deze actie beschadigt de rivaliserende buurstaat wel, want de geldhoeveelheid daar is verwaterd. De vorst kan een dienaar naar die staat sturen en daar gratis goederen inkopen met de munten die hij zelf illegaal heeft geslagen. Eigenlijk is het diefstal.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Aan munten uit die tijd is duidelijk te zien dat iedereen dit op een gegeven moment ging doen, wat voor een enorme geldontwaarding zorgde. Inmiddels hebben munten een geribbelde rand, zodat dit niet mogelijk is. En als je nu iets soortgelijks zou willen uithalen, dan doe je dat natuurlijk met een digitale truc. In ieder geval is dit de herkomst van het woord &#8216;seigniorage&#8217;: als je geld maakt, verdien je daar ook geld mee.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De Britse organisatie Positive Money deed </span><a href="https://positivemoney.org/uk/publications/fiscal-benefits-digital-pound/"><span>onderzoek</span></a><span> naar de budgettaire effecten van CBDC. Ze stellen - terecht - dat seigniorage plaatsvindt bij of centrale banken of bij de particuliere banken als ING en Rabobank. Hoe dat bij een centrale bank werkt, zag u hierboven. Bij een particuliere bank kan iets soortgelijks gebeuren. Via het zogeheten fractional reserve banking (FRB) kan een bank geld scheppen om een lening te verstrekken. Als een klant om bijvoorbeeld een hypotheek vraagt, kan de bank het geld daarvoor uit het niets scheppen. Een bank mag een hoeveelheid spaargeld vaker uitlenen dan een keer. Vervolgens moeten mensen wel hypotheekrente betalen, echt geld dat is verdiend met een baan of een onderneming. Soms hoor je dat banken oneindig veel geld kunnen scheppen met FRB, dat is ook weer niet waar. Zo mag de bank niet te veel schulden op de balans hebben ten opzichte van het eigen vermogen. Maar ook particuliere banken verdienen dus geld met het scheppen van geld, wederom hebben we het over seigniorage.</span></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MQCL!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8edcb9cf-3a94-47f3-ab09-856b09470251_767x860.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MQCL!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8edcb9cf-3a94-47f3-ab09-856b09470251_767x860.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MQCL!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8edcb9cf-3a94-47f3-ab09-856b09470251_767x860.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MQCL!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8edcb9cf-3a94-47f3-ab09-856b09470251_767x860.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MQCL!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8edcb9cf-3a94-47f3-ab09-856b09470251_767x860.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MQCL!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8edcb9cf-3a94-47f3-ab09-856b09470251_767x860.png" width="767" height="860" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/8edcb9cf-3a94-47f3-ab09-856b09470251_767x860.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:860,&quot;width&quot;:767,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MQCL!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8edcb9cf-3a94-47f3-ab09-856b09470251_767x860.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MQCL!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8edcb9cf-3a94-47f3-ab09-856b09470251_767x860.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MQCL!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8edcb9cf-3a94-47f3-ab09-856b09470251_767x860.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MQCL!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8edcb9cf-3a94-47f3-ab09-856b09470251_767x860.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Volgens </span>EenVandaag<span> verdwijnt seigniorage als de overheid digitaal geld gaat uitgeven, in plaats van dat particuliere banken dat doen. Het programma stelt immers dat er met een digitale euro geen geld wordt verdiend. Dat is nadrukkelijk niet waar. Volgens </span><a href="https://positivemoney.org/uk/publications/fiscal-benefits-digital-pound/"><span>Positive Money</span></a><span> is het geld dat elk jaar in een moderne economie wordt verdiend met seigniorage ongeveer een procent van het nationaal inkomen. Als burgers minder contant geld gebruiken en kiezen voor oplossingen van banken, zoals pinpassen, dan verkleint dat effect de inkomsten van de centrale bank. Seigniorage vindt dan nog steeds plaats, maar verhuist van de centrale bank naar de particuliere bank. Het is dus niet de vraag of er wel of geen winst wordt gemaakt met het maken van geld, maar wie die winst mag opstrijken. Volgens Positive Money kan een bescheiden introductie van CBDC de winst van de overheid met dertig miljard pond per jaar vergroten, structureel.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Het exacte bedrag dat er met seigniorage wordt verdiend laat zich lastig schatten, maar het loopt in de honderden miljarden.

Het is te betogen dat particuliere banken </span><a href="https://www.worldeconomicsassociation.org/newsletterarticles/private-seigniorage/"><span>het vijfvoudige</span></a><span> verdienen. Door CBDC in te voeren, zal de ECB meer gaan verdienen.

Als particuliere banken geld over hebben, kunnen ze dat in een reserve aanhouden bij de centrale bank. Onderlinge betalingen kunnen dan ook uit dat potje gedaan worden, als Rabobank bijvoorbeeld iets moet overmaken aan ING. De ECB kan een rente betalen op de reserves die particuliere banken aanhouden. Als die rente verandert, geven banken die rente ook door aan klanten, dat zijn u en ik.

winst maken op het uitgeven van de digitale euro: die winsten worden juist gebruikt om het hele project te financieren. Het is redelijk om aan te nemen dat de ECB in het begin meer kosten moet maken om het project uit te voeren. Na een tijd is CBDC af, als het ware. De opbrengsten uit seigniorage lopen dan gewoon door. We hebben het dan over tientallen miljarden euro&#8217;s, minstens. De ECB kan dat geld gebruiken voor doeleinden die het zelf formuleert, of het geld uitkeren als winst aan de aandeelhouder. In Nederland is dat het Ministerie van Financi&#235;n.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;">EenVandaag<span> stelt dat een digitale euro een vorm van geld is waar geen winst op wordt gemaakt. Dat klopt niet. Het scheppen van geld zorgt er op zich al voor dat er winst wordt gemaakt, het gaat om honderden miljarden per jaar. Als burgers minder contant geld gebruiken en kiezen voor digitale oplossingen van particuliere banken, dan slaan de winsten uit seigniorage ook vaker neer bij die banken. Met een digitale euro kan de centrale bank een stuk van die winst weghalen bij particuliere banken. De ECB heeft die banken wel nodig voor het uitoefenen van monetair beleid en hoeft dus niet de hele koek, enkel een stukje.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De redactie van </span>EenVandaag <span>begrijpt duidelijk niet dat er zoiets is als seigniorage. Je kunt geen geld scheppen zonder daar geld mee te verdienen. Er bestaat niet zoiets als geld zonder winstoogmerk. Ook heeft de redactie van </span>EenVandaag<span> het BNC-fiche duidelijk niet gelezen bij het onderzoek voor de reportage. Dat is een bizarre omissie, als we heel eerlijk zijn.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Had u mijn laatste boek trouwens al gelezen?

niet voor bedoeld zijn. Dat staat toch ook als een paal boven water? Met een keukenmes kun je groenten snijden in de gaarkeuken van het Leger des Heils, maar er zijn ook andere mogelijkheden: we gaan hier niemand op idee&#235;n brengen. Met de nieuwste digitale hulpmiddelen is het niet anders.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In China ontdekten ze tijdens de pandemie </span><a href="https://www.senat.fr/rap/r20-673/r20-673.html"><span>een interessante manier</span></a><span> om mensen op te sporen die zich niet aan de regels rondom de quarantaine hielden. Het is voor de autoriteiten mogelijk om in de bancaire gegevens van gewone burgers te zoeken naar indicaties van een recent bezoek aan de apotheek. Simpel, heeft iemand koortsremmers gekocht? Daarnaast is er een lijst met burgers die zich wel had gemeld voor quarantaine. Wie wel bij de eerste groep zat maar niet bij de eerste werd als mogelijk overtreder van de regels gezien. Tegenwoordig is zo&#8217;n zoekopdracht zo uitgevoerd. Maar is het wel de bedoeling dat je bankrekening dient voor opsporing? Het was toch een dienst, toen je die afnam vertelden ze dit er toch niet bij? De pandemie gaf een gevoel van urgentie, het moest allemaal maar. Maar zo is het in eerste instantie niet verkocht.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De EU is bezig om een digitale munt in te voeren, een lokale variant van CBDC. Een digitale euro zal niet programmeerbaar zijn, heet het. Maar de mogelijkheid bestaat wel: het was DNB zelf, die opperde dat je bijvoorbeeld </span><a href="https://www.arnowellens.nl/p/cbdc-topic-525-programmeerbaar-geld"><span>een zorgtoeslag</span></a><span> zo kunt regelen dat je er enkel zorg mee kunt inkopen. Inmiddels wordt ontkend dat de digitale euro programmeerbaar zal worden. In eerste instantie zal dat niet zo zijn, maar een goede crisis en de wereld ziet er helemaal anders uit.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>In het digitale tijdperk is het veel makkelijker om voorwaarden en kenmerken van diensten aan te passen. Een zilveren munt wordt nooit een gouden munt, maar een digitale munt kan van de ene dag op de andere kenmerken krijgen of verliezen. Zo heeft China eind vorig jaar besloten om toch rente op CBDC te zetten, best een ommekeer. Het is goed mogelijk dat de ECB en de Europese Commissie nu beloftes doen rondom digitale onderwerpen, om die straks weer terug te trekken.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Dat is in Nederland al gebeurd met het discriminatieverbod op het digitale domein. Er is een grondwet, de overheid mag niet discrimineren op basis van geslacht, huidskleur, politieke voorkeur, noem maar op. Die lijn is doorgetrokken naar de wereld van het digitaal verzamelen van gegevens van mensen. Logisch, als je niet op bijvoorbeeld seksuele voorkeur mag discrimineren, waarom zou je daar dan gegevens over moeten registreren? Dat dat niet mag, is nu bij wet verboden. Alleen is er oorlog in Oekra&#239;ne, dus het leger wil het digitale discriminatieverbod afschaffen. Dat wetsvoorstel ligt nu bij de Raad van State. Waarom zou een oorlog verderop een reden zijn om hier het discriminatieverbod in te perken, kan iemand dat uitleggen? Waarom wil het leger weten wat je seksuele voorkeur is? Het maakt niet uit, het crisis dus doe het maar.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>De EU wil naar een digitaal paspoort voor iedereen toe. Dat heeft geen praktisch nut, net als een digitale munt. Dan gaat men op zoek naar excuses om het in te voeren en de &#8216;veiligheid van de kinderen&#8217; is er zeker een. Want als je kinderen verbiedt op social media te gaan, dan geldt de identificatieplicht op internet voor iedereen. Daar denken mensen dan weer niet over na.
