Guy Verhofstadt
Guy Verhofstadt became prime minister of Belgium in 1999 in the aftermath of a food-contamination scandal that discredited the government of Jean-Luc Dehaene. Verhofstadt had previously led the opposition for 11 years. Verhofstadt resigned as prime minister in June 2007 after his party suffered a crushing defeat in parliamentary elections.
