At a hastily called press conference, FPÖ General Secretary Christian Hafenecker said that his party had been prepared to make compromises in various areas, but that the limits had been reached on the crucial issues surrounding security, asylum and migration. “We cannot allow all central security areas to remain in ÖVP hands,” said Hafenecker, who was himself involved in the negotiations.

The focus is now on Herbert Kickl's upcoming personal statement, which is announced for this evening noen.at reported.
