Austrian president to meet far-right leader amid coalition speculation

ai generated text

Austrian politics have been plunged into turmoil following the breakdown of coalition talks between conservative Chancellor Karl Nehammer and centrist parties. This has led to speculation that the far-right Freedom Party of Austria (FPO), led by Herbert Kickl, may be tasked with forming a government. President Alexander Van der Bellen has announced that he will meet with Kickl, who could potentially become chancellor if he succeeds in forming a coalition.

    1. We are not responsible for the wasted time, the chaotic situation and the enormous breach of trust that has emerged.
    2. On the contrary: It is clear that the Freedom Party has been and continues to be the only stable factor in Austrian politics.

    1. We must do everything we can now to avoid sliding towards a national crisis.

    1. This country needs a stable government right now, and we can't keep losing time to election campaigns or elections that we don't have.
    2. It is therefore not about Herbert Kickl or me, but about the fact that this country needs a stable government right now and that we cannot keep losing time in election campaigns or elections.
    3. If we are invited to negotiations to form a government, we will accept this invitation.
    4. We will not refuse to talk to the FPO.
    5. I expect that the leader of the party with the most votes will be tasked with forming a future government. If we are invited to these [coalition] talks, we will accept this invitation.

    1. Voices within the People's Party that rule out co-operation with an FPO under Herbert Kickl have become much quieter. This in turn means that a new path may be opening up that did not exist before.
