In a crushing blow to European bureaucrats, 61.1% of Dutch voters voted to block the deal as politicians hail “the beginning of the end of the EU”.
The treaty, which would see a major shift in political, trade and defence co-operation between the EU and Ukraine has been automatically accepted in 27 member states, including Britain.
The Netherlands is the only country to oppose the plan creating a major stumbling block in what many considered would be the first step in Ukraine becoming a member of the EU.
UKIP deputy leader Paul Nuttall said: “It was unsurprising as there is a definite feeling within the Netherlands that the EU no longer works for them.
“There’s a problem already within the country with immigration.
“Holland is one of the most densely populated countries in the EU and people were voicing their dissatisfaction with the European project.
