Austrian president spurns far-right despite election win

23 Oct 2024  |  www.channel4.com
Austria's president, Alexander Van der Bellen, has decided that the far-right FPÖ will not automatically form a government despite their election win. The conservative ÖVP, led by Chancellor Karl Nehammer, has been tasked with forming a government, excluding the FPÖ under its current leader, Herbert Kickl, due to his extremist views. Nehammer is exploring coalition options with the center-left social democrats, greens, or liberals. The FPÖ's exclusion is due to their anti-Islamic and eurosceptic positions, with Kickl's leadership being a significant barrier. A stable government requires a third party to ensure a parliamentary majority.
