Austria at the turning point: How Herbert Kickl endangers democracy!
In a heated political climate in Austria, the dispute on the role of Herbert Kickl, the FPÖ chairman, continues. Nico Marchetti, General Secretary of the People's Party (ÖVP), expressed sharp criticism of Kickl by describing him as a "will-not-chancellor". Marchetti emphasized that Kickl acted extremely unwillingly in the decisive government negotiations and was only sitting at the negotiating table for eight hours in five weeks. His statements make it clear that Kickl and the FPÖ are not concerned with responsibility for the Republic, but about split, as it is in a message from the Apa-OTS is highlighted.
The current situation describes Marchetti as a "total work of art in political failure", and the risk of a right of right is taken seriously. According to the article of Rnd , not only the politically responsible, but also civil society this change with concern. Marchetti explained that cooperation with the FPÖ would be "not friendly, but a sober employment relationship". The ÖVP then strives to work meticulously in all agreements, but the current political pressure is immense, while the authoritarian course under Kickl could be a serious threat to the democratic foundations.
