Dutch News: Inflation, Flying Cars, and More | Amsterdam News

Inflation spikes to 3.3%, fueled by soaring energy costs and straining the government ahead of Budget Day, while inland waterway freight hits a 15-year low—another grim climate warning. Dutch teens’ literacy is plummeting below Europe’s average, prompting schools to adapt by accommodating home languages. But there’s hope: ASML’s new Eindhoven campus will create 20,000 jobs, and the Dutch flying car is finally cleared for takeoff in 2028—though it’ll cost €100,000 per wheel. History’s got drama too—the PM’s tower roof hasn’t been touched since 1547, and a Nazi official’s daughter is returning a looted painting. On the sports front, Botic van de Zandschulp reaches the US Open quarterfinals again, and there’s growing talk of barring Russian athletes from the Winter Olympics.
