First Lubbers cabinet

The first Lubbers cabinet (1982-1986) was formed by the right-wing political parties CDA and VVD. The aim of the cabinet was cutting government spending and privatizations. There was much internal resistance of the left-wing, especially the largest mass demonstration in Dutch history, against the placement of cruise missiles. The enormous unemployment was reduced during this period. Aruba became autonomous in 1986.
