The case, brought on behalf of seven claimants =E2=80=94 one of whom has si= nce died =E2=80=94 targets the State of the Netherlands, Prime Minister Mar= k Rutte, former Health Minister Hugo de Jonge, former Finance Minister Sigr= id Kaag and others, alongside Gates. Organizers describe the lawsuit as a c= hallenge to pandemic-era decision-making and the policies surrounding Covid= -19. Opening the press conference, foundation representative Abe Dijkstra critic= ized the absence of mainstream media and praised independent journalists in= attendance. He said the foundation organized the event to bring public att= ention to what he called a landmark legal effort and appealed for donations= to ensure the case can continue. =E2=80=9CWe can=E2=80=99t do this alone,=E2=80=9D Dijkstra said, urging sup= porters to contribute financially and share coverage of the proceedings wid= ely. Stassen focused much of his remarks on recent procedural developments, part= icularly surrounding expert testimony. He explained that while courts decli= ned requests to formally hear five experts during preliminary petition proc= eedings, the plaintiffs have still submitted expert evidence directly to th= e court through written reports and recorded video statements. =E2=80=9CThis does not affect the right of a party to present expert eviden= ce,=E2=80=9D Stassen said. =E2=80=9CWe have exercised that right.=E2=80=9D During a question-and-answer session, journalist Ido Dijkstra of De Andere = Krant asked about Stassen=E2=80=99s earlier remark that Bill Gates was the = only defendant who did not oppose hearing expert testimony. Stassen clarifi= ed that Gates=E2=80=99 legal counsel chose to defer to the court=E2=80=99s = judgment rather than explicitly contest the request. =E2=80=9CIn plain language,=E2=80=9D Stassen said, =E2=80=9Chis lawyer said= he would await the judge=E2=80=99s verdict.=E2=80=9D Questions also turned to the scope and timeline of the case. Stassen said t= he main proceedings on the merits are scheduled to be brought before the Le= euwarden court, with potential hearing dates ranging between March and Octo= ber of next year. He noted that the court had initially signaled a limited = hearing but said newly submitted evidence may require a broader legal debat= e. =E2=80=9CThis evidence is serious,=E2=80=9D Stassen said. =E2=80=9CA legal = process exists to conduct that debate.=E2=80=9D Asked whether the case could influence future public-health responses, Stas= sen said the lawsuit seeks justice not only for his clients but also broade= r accountability. He described the case as both a legal process and a wider= struggle over truth and transparency. The press conference also addressed concerns about the length of the procee= dings. Stassen acknowledged the process could take considerable time but sa= id the case would continue regardless. =E2=80=9CIt has started, and it will not go away,=E2=80=9D he said. Additional attention to the lawsuit has emerged internationally through alt= ernative media coverage, including recent reporting highlighting the scope = of the claims and the involvement of high-profile defendants. Organizers sa= id they have received interest from journalists and observers outside the N= etherlands, even as domestic mainstream outlets have remained largely absen= t. The event concluded with renewed calls for public engagement, donations, an= d the sharing of recorded footage from the press conference. =E2=80=9CWe don=E2=80=99t give up,=E2=80=9D Dijkstra said in closing. =E2= =80=9COnce we=E2=80=99re moving, we keep going.=E2=80=9D Unsubscribe https://substack.com/redirect/2/eyJlIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly9kaWVkc3VkZGV=
