Farm protest in Vienna: ÖVP and FPÖ in the dispute over agricultural rights!

Laimgrubengasse 10, 1060 Wien, Österreich - The political landscape in Austria is currently preparing for the upcoming challenges. The focus is particularly on the announced peasant demonstration of the FPÖ, which is to take place on Ballhausplatz in Vienna. According to the FPÖ, 200 to 300 participants are expected, which has already led to tensions between the ÖvP and FPÖ. The FPÖ sees itself as a mouthpiece of the farmers, while the farmers' association rejects the allegations and accuses the FPÖ to exploit agriculture for its own party political goals, according to ORF.AT.

In the course of these clashes, the FPÖ agricultural spokesman Peter Schmiedlechner expressed himself sharply about the supposed fake news of the farmers' association. He had a quote from State Councilor Susanne Rosenkranz, which referred to possible expropriations within the framework of the Renaturation Ordinance, torn from the context and used for his own purposes. Schmiedlechner described this practice as a "complete facts of fact and calls for calls" and thus made it clear the responsibility of the farmers' association, which in his opinion reveals the interests of the farmers. In his speech, he made it clear that the freedom of farmers were the honest representation of the farmers, while the politics of the farmers' association and the ÖVP family business are under massive pressure, reported APA-OT.
