After FPÖ-ÖVP Dispute: This is How NEOS Leader Meinl-Reisinger Reacts

NEOS leader Meinl-Reisinger expressed her bewilderment over the FPÖ and particularly party leader Herbert Kickl in a video shared on social media, portraying him as a "self-proclaimed, power-hungry people's chancellor" aiming for humiliation and revenge against the ÖVP. A hard anti-EU stance and significant attacks on the rule of law are to be expected from the Freedom Party.

NEOS Leader Meinl-Reisinger: "Austria Deserves Better"

"I am convinced that Austria deserves better, and yes, there are alternatives to this situation, to this tyranny of the FPÖ," she said. The ÖVP is not at the mercy of this. "All doors are open to the ÖVP," she stated: "They can, if they want, take a different path." Even when exiting the negotiations at the end of January, she, as NEOS leader, offered not only reform support in a coalition of ÖVP and SPÖ but also a minority government of ÖVP and NEOS. From the statements of the SPÖ and the Greens, she gathers that there is also openness for such a scenario there. She is also ready for renewed trilateral talks, "even in a moderating role." However, Meinl-Reisinger restricted that the SPÖ must "move to the center" for this.
