Asked about Dutch vote, German spokesperson says we like working with pro-Europeans

Germany prefers working with pro-European governments, a German government spokesperson said when asked about anti-European Union populist Geert Wilders coming first in the Dutch elections.

"We are particularly happy working with governments that have a pro-European and constructive approach," Steffen Hebestreit told a regular news conference, adding that it might be a long time before a new government was in place.
