Kickl speaks of democratic crisis: FPÖ demands new elections and bans!

Villach, Österreich - The FPÖ plans to make an application for new elections in the National Council on Wednesday, although party leader Herbert Kickl does not expect lively support. At a press conference, he emphasized that this application could be done at any time. In addition, the FPÖ wants to get a "prohibition law" against political Islam and stricter regulations for asylum seekers. Kickl sees the emerging turquoise-red-pink triple coalition as hardly legitimized and speaks of a "democratic crisis" that is "dangerous" for the population. This is due to the fact that the citizens had been deceived before the election about budget and economic issues, such as OE24 reported.

In an analysis of the current political situation, Kickl described the "unit parties" as a captive in a system that fears changes. The FPÖ chairman made it clear that it was not he but the ÖVP failed to form a government, since from the start against the FPÖ had been negotiated. In this context, Kickl established a connection between the recent terrorist attacks in Austria and Germany and the irregular migration and described the victims as "fire wall deaths". His Secretary General Christian Hafenecker added that political responsibility for these incidents was among the current governing. Kickl added that the voters had been "lied to" before the election, which further eroded confidence in the government. The ÖVP countered Kickl's allegations by wanting to distract him from his own voter fraud, such as The press reported.
