    Default Classify Dutchman Yago Riedijk (Ethnicity)?

    This is Shamima Begum's Dutch husband. He is from a middle class Dutch family and the only information everywhere is that he is Dutch and he converted to Islam. It is obvious to me that he has some non-Dutch background. Does anyone have any idea of his ethnicity? I've never seen anywhere him described as anything other than Dutch but he doesn't look Dutch.

    Possibly part Indonesian, from the Dutch colonial days, even Eddie Van Halen had Indonesian blood, lots of them emigrated to Holland.

    He looks Turkish or Lebanese. Some Syrian and Iraqi refugees here resemble this guy....Looks like an alpine med to me with gorid and mtebid hints as well (some Georgians, Bulgarians and Romanians have this look). But he can be anything...Castizo is not that far off too...But merde, the man is definitely not full Dutch. 1/4 Dutch is more like it. He's kinda cute with hair gotta say...

    Dammit...Now I was right that when I said the guy can be anything, but Indonesian? Ew, and I thought he was sort of cute

    I would have to assume that his Indonesian side must have some Portuguese. To feel better about myself....

    It was difficult enough finding out he was Dutch-Indonesian. It isn't in any newspaper articles. It was only because it was mentioned in an interview that I found out. It was in relation to Shamima Begum being stripped of her British citizenship because her parents were Bangladeshi so he was asked because he was Dutch-Indonesian could the Dutch Government strip him of his Dutch citizenship?

    The Dutch are more PC, so probably not!
