Dick Schoof, a former spy chief, has been sworn in as the new Dutch prime minister, leading a broad right-wing coalition.
The new cabinet, under Schoof's leadership, promises to implement the "strictest-ever" immigration policy in the Netherlands.
Schoof takes over from Mark Rutte, who is set to become the next secretary-general of NATO, following protracted negotiations after far-right leader Geert Wilders' electoral victory.
