Election winner Kunasek: FPÖ relies on immigration and discussion about the head hospital

In the current developments in Styrian politics, there were remarkable statements by Mario Kunasek, the top candidate of the FPÖ on Sunday evening. In an interview with Armin Wolf in ZIB 2, Kunasek commented on the election victory of his party, which he sees as the result of a targeted choice of topic, especially with regard to immigration. "We have a clear claim to the governor, everything else would be crazy. 35 percent are 35 percent, Mr. Wolf," emphasized Kunasek.

The understanding of political coalitions is also up for debate. Kunasek pointed out that there are intersections between the parties, but there are also differences, especially when it comes to leading hospital. The district has spoken out against the project, which could make the negotiations difficult. In addition, the topic of the finance affair, in which 18 members of the FPÖ Graz are involved, is addressed. Although Kunasek himself is affected, he lives from the presumption of innocence and expressed himself optimistically: "I assume that there are settings, not an indictment."

The lead hospital debate

The discussion about the planned lead hospital put Kunasek a stone in the board. He said: "I would like to get to know Plan B and know what it costs. Only when I know it can I answer this question. For what is now on the table, there is a clear no." This shows that Kunasek needs more information to get a well -founded decision.

In addition, he emphasized the importance of this election defeat for the FPÖ. "It is a historic success of the Styrian FPÖ, which is due to the correct orientation of recent years," added Kunasek. His party successfully occupied the topics of health, migration, transport and business and "put suitable solutions on the table". His speech to the party bodies and the subsequent discussions with all the parties represented in the state parliament underline the intention of the FPÖ to seek broad cooperation.

After the election evening, he announced that the FPÖ would not organize a "blue Monday", but would be more likely to meet on Monday afternoon for more formal committees meetings. This procedure could be seen as a signal to the other parties that the FPÖ is ready to work constructively.

The focus is on the developments of the Styrian FPÖ and the election as the governor, and Kunasek seems determined to continue to advance the topics that are important to him. The results of the choice show that the FPÖ is not willing to ignore the geopolitical and social challenges, and this could change the political landscape in Styria.
