Government program reveals: Where is the value of human dignity?

Österreich - Austrian politics faces a big change: the new government program under the title "Now do the right thing. For Austria." was presented at a press conference in parliament today. As krone.at reported, the 210 -page document includes central topics that affect the population - from asylum to tenancy law to social reforms. This agreement between the ÖVP, SPÖ and NEOS is intended to set the course for the upcoming coalition government after the National Council election took place almost five months ago. The next possible step is the log in, which is already considered for the coming weekend, provided that all relevant party bodies agree.

A particularly controversial passage in the government program has caused excitement: The Federal Government announces the mediation of "equality, LGBTIQ rights, human dignity and anti-Semitism" in their values and orientation courses for migrants. This is considered problematic by orf.at , since anti -Semitism does not appear to be in such a central explanation. Critics are wondering how anti -Semitic currents are to be counteracted in concrete terms.

There is further focus on the planned sharp measures in the asylum area. The family reunification is to be “immediately” stopped, and a headscarf ban is being sought for minor girls. In their program, ÖVP, SPÖ and NEOS emphasize consensus and pragmatism as a decisive basis for their cooperation. In addition, social issues are also tackled: A “basic child security” should halve child poverty by 2030 and social assistance is being restructured. In the area of the educational system there is a ban on mobile phone in schools on the agenda.

Despite the ambitious plans, the staffing of the ministries remains open for the time being, but is expected for Friday. The SPÖ is faced with internal discussions about the distribution of department. Rumors about Peter Hanke as possible finance ministers, but the official confirmation is still pending. The NEOs also seem to have thought well, while the previous ministers of the ÖVP are to keep their departments.
