»Österreich ist ein Beispiel, wie es nicht laufen darf. Wenn die Parteien der Mitte nicht bündnisfähig sind & Kompromisse als Teufelszeug abtun, hilft das den Radikalen.« Der 🇩🇪 Vizekanzler und Grünen-Spitzenkandidat Robert Habeck warnt vor 🇦🇹 Verhältnissen. www.spiegel.de/politik/deut... #Kickl #FPÖ

2019 hat die ÖVP die Koalition mit der FPÖ gesprengt, weil sie Herbert Kickl für untragbar als Innenminister hielt. Im Wahlkampf 2024 hat sie Kickl für „rechtsextrem“ u. zum „Sicherheitsrisiko“ erklärt. Nun will die ÖVP Verhandlungen, um Kickl zum Kanzler zu machen. Ö. Politik ist schon … besonders.
