  • POLITICAL UPHEAVAL in AUSTRIA: Recent Weeks and Days Were Like Riding a Roller Coaster in Austrian Politics
    HC Newsletter May 2019 Dear Friends of Austria! So much happened in May ….. where to begin? POLITICAL UPHEAVAL IN AUSTRIA: Recent weeks and days were like riding a roller coaster in Austrian politics. Here is a short summary of what happened until end of May: May 17: Scandalous videos of Vice Chancellor H-C Strache (FPÖ) were published. In these videos, filmed 3 months before the elections in 2017, H-C Strache offered a person, believed to be a Russian connection to Putin’s circle, lucrative governmental contracts in exchange for financial support of the party before the elections and to buy into one of Austria’s leading newspaper to enhance the positive coverage of his party. May 18: As this political bombshell detonated the vice chancellor resigned as did the FPÖ party chairman. Austria’s President Alexander VanDerBellen addressed the nation with deep sorrow about the critical state the nation was brought into. He urged to stand together to get out of the crisis in an orderly way. May 19: Chancellor Kurz demanded the resignation of the minister of interior, Herbert Kickl (FPÖ), so that fair investigations of this affair can be guaranteed. This was not accepted by the FPÖ and as a consequence all ministers of FPÖ resigned en block. Only the minister of foreign affairs, Karin Kneissel stayed on, as she runs as an independent although she was nominated by and is close to the FPÖ. May 22: Chancellor Kurz nominated and President VanDerBellen swore in experts as interim leaders of the vacant minister positions for interior, defense, health and social affairs, sport, and infrastructure.
