00:00The centrist liberal D66 has officially beaten the far-right party for freedom and become

00:06the biggest winner of this week's nail-biting snap parliamentary election race in the Netherlands.

00:13With nearly all votes counted, Dutch press agency ANP announced that Geert Wilders-PVV

00:19no longer has a chance at overtaking the D66 led by Rob Jetten.

00:24The remaining votes come from just one municipality, Fenray, where a fire that broke out in the

00:41town hall delayed ballot counting. Also remaining are the mail-in ballots from voters living abroad,

00:48which will be announced by Monday. Their win means D66 will take the first initiative in

00:53forming a coalition, and puts Yeti as a likely candidate for prime minister. Yeti's wish

00:59to build a centrist coalition will depend on the willingness of major parties on the left

01:04and the right to collaborate.
