Prime minister Dick Schoof will not attend next week’s UN climate summit in Azerbaijan because of the “major social impact” of Thursday night’s football-related violence in Amsterdam.

Five supporters of Israeli club Maccabi Tel Aviv were taken to hospital after being attacked by what Amsterdam mayor Femke Halsema described as “hit and runs” by “youths on scooters” following the Europa League game against Ajax. A further 20 to 30 were injured.

Analysts and journalists are still putting together exactly what happened in the city, but the attacks have drawn condemnation worldwide.

Schoof said on social media the trouble will be discussed at Monday’s cabinet meeting and on Tuesday ministers will focus on measures to combat anti-Semitism. Schoof said he will also meet Jewish organisations later in the day.

MPs are also expected to debate events in the short term and Schoof said he “wants to be available”.

The prime minister will be replaced at the summit by Jaime de Bourbon de Parme, the national climate envoy. Climate minister Sophie Hermans will also be in attendance.

Schoof is not the only leader who will be missing in Baku. German chancellor Olaf Scholz is staying home because of the political crisis, and French president Emmanuel Macron, US president Joe Biden and Brazilian president Lula da Silva will not be in attendance either.

EU chairwoman Ursula von Leyen is also staying away because she is preparing her new line up of commissioners, broadcaster NOS reported.

The climate summit in Baku starts on Monday and runs until November 22. Schoof also left the EU summit in Hungary early because of the trouble.
