A notable letter from Béatrice Delvaux has been published, urging Jean-Luc Dehaene to intervene in the ongoing political deadlock in Brussels, referencing his historical role in establishing the regional government.

The article also showcases contributions such as a letter from Delvaux calling for renewed leadership and visual artworks reflecting the political situation.

The political crisis in Brussels has now lasted nearly 500 days since the last government was formed following the June 9, 2024 elections, with no resolution in sight.

To raise awareness and engage the public, an initiative has been launched to highlight the impasse, symbolized by the approaching 500-day milestone without a governing body.

Le Soir is inviting the public to contribute messages—letters, videos, or drawings—to address political figures, with submissions starting October 22, 2025, coinciding with the 500th day of the crisis.

Participants are encouraged to send respectful contributions via email or postal mail, including personal details such as their first name, residence, and optionally a photo.

Guidelines specify that messages should be respectful and can be in the form of a letter (up to one page), a short video (up to 1 minute 30 seconds), or a drawing, with specific submission instructions.

The ongoing crisis has generated frustration among citizens, and there is a focus on the potential involvement of Jean-Luc Dehaene, given his historical significance in regional governance.

While other political issues like elections and reforms are mentioned, the main focus remains on mobilizing public contributions to address Brussels' political deadlock.

This initiative aims to amplify citizen voices and pressure political leaders to resolve the impasse, emphasizing the importance of public engagement at this critical juncture.
