Additionally, attempts on cutting public subsidies specifically for the party were made through the Belgian draining law. Nonetheless, most other parties initially continued the cordon sanitaire which was implemented against the former party, effectively blocking the Vlaams Belang from taking part in government at any level. However, the VB toned down and implemented some changes to the more controversial portions of the former Vlaams Blok statute and has sought to change its image from a radical to a more conservative party by distancing itself from some of its former programs. It also supports maintaining Flemish cultural identity, opposition to multiculturalism and calls for tougher law and order policies. After reorganizing itself as Vlaams Belang, the party continued the core philosophy of its predecessor by campaigning on a separatist and Flemish nationalist platform. Vlaams Belang is a rebrand of Vlaams Blok, which dissolved after a trial in 2004 condemned the party for racism. Vlaams Belang ( Dutch:, 'Flemish Interest', VB) is a Flemish nationalist, right-wing populist political party in the Flemish Region and Brussels Capital Region of Belgium.
