Rutte underlined that it is "worrying" that the inflation figure rose to 11.9 last March, Rutte said, "We are facing a tremendously high inflation. Of course, this affects many people. We will all get a little poorer in the future. This will really happen. We have to be clear about this." Dutch PM Rutte continued his speech with the following statements: "Inflation is so terribly high and energy prices are rising so fast that my most honest message to the Netherlands is that the government can't solve it all. We will all feel the effects collectively this year. We will really feel it together. We all need to use our wallets wisely."
