Dutch isn't a foreign language in Wallonia either.

And considering English is shown for Flanders I assume French is counted as first "foreign language" there.

This holds for Dutch and French in Belgium either. Though it is a difference, if a language is tought to a native speaker, e.g. Swedish to a Swedish speaking Finn, or as a foreign language, e.g. Swedish to a Finnish speaking Finn.
