Dreier coalition in Austria: compromise and new ways for the future!

The Austrian political landscape has changed through the newly formed triple coalition from the ÖVP, SPÖ and Neos. After months of negotiations, the parties have finally presented a government pact under the title "Now do the right thing. For Austria", as the Meinbezirk . ÖVP boss and Chancellor Christian Stocker emphasized the importance of the topic of migration, where an immediate stop of the family reunification was decided. This should be implemented regardless of legal concerns in the EU. Interior Minister Gerhard Karner (ÖVP) will work out the corresponding regulation.

Key points of the government negotiations

The coalition pact emphasizes several essential points, including a mandatory integration program for asylum seekers from the first day, as well as a debate about a ban on headscarves for minor girls. According to Vol.at the family reunification was temporarily exposed, and the right to a possible stopover was given in the prospect in the event of an overload. SPÖ boss Andreas Babler found that all parties have agreed on necessary compromises to prevent the FPÖ under Herbert Kickl as a government party and to protect democratic values.

The government responsibilities are clearly distributed: the ÖVP takes over core departments such as inside, state defense and the Chancellery, while the SPÖ receives finance and judicial departments. The NEOs are responsible for education and foreign policy and plan to relieve families to stop rental price increases for one year. A second mandatory kindergarten year and a new subject of democracy in schools are also part of the program. These measures should improve education sustainably and increase social justice.
