Herman van Rompuy profile: Belgium's diffident haiku poet steps from the shadows
Friday November 20, 2009
Belgian parliamentarians cheered and applauded their departing Prime Minister as he headed off to be anointed in his new role. Wearing a loose-fitting suit and a look of surprise tinged with |amusement, Herman van Rompuy cut a diminutive figure among his boisterous colleagues.

Unusually in this divided country, Flemish nationalists teamed up with Walloon socialists to salute their unlikely national hero. In a nod to his premier's famous love of verse, one MP recited the opening stanza of a Flemish poem as a tribute, which Mr Van Rompuy then spontaneously completed.
