Austria in the crisis: Van der Bellen outlines government options!

After the recent failed coalition negotiations between the FPÖ and the ÖVP, Austria is now on a political crossroads. Federal President Alexander Van der Bellen commented on this and plans to have discussions with leading politicians in the coming days in order to find out how to proceed. In a statement in the Hofburg, he called four possible options: new elections, a minority government, an expert government or the formation of a new coalition. Van der Bellen, however, made it clear that the concrete composition of the government is not important to him as long as a collaboration is found that has an eye on the state of the state. This is reported by the Dolomitenstadt .

In a longer digression, the Federal President emphasized the importance of compromises in politics and regretted that they were increasingly discredited in the current situation. "The compromise is a cultural asset that we have always driven well," said van der Bellen and called on to find a solution. FPÖ boss Herbert Kickl personally informed him about the failure of the negotiations and foreshadowte that no discussions would take place with the SPÖ. Diese Position könnte die zukünftigen Verhandlungen erheblich beeinflussen, wie die Kleine Zeitung berichtet. Van der Bellen therefore faces the challenge of finding a sustainable solution for political stability in Austria.
