Over 80% Of Austrians Demand Stricter Asylum Measures
A new survey has revealed that an overwhelming majority of Austrians support stricter asylum measures, including a halt to family reunification for asylum seekers. Conducted by UniqueResearch for ATV, the poll found that more than 80 percent of respondents back tighter asylum regulations, with 59 percent expressing strong support and an additional 22 percent indicating moderate approval. Only 12 percent of Austrians opposed the policy. Support for the measure is consistent across the political spectrum, with a majority of voters from all major political parties calling for an asylum crackdown. The poll follows an announcement by the new Austrian coalition government to impose a temporary 'zero quota' on family reunifications, a step officials say is necessary to address the ongoing asylum crisis and the strain on Austria's social systems. Cynics believe the move is a token gesture to appease supporters of the Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ) — the party that won the most seats in last year's federal election but is not represented in the new coalition after talks with establishment parties failed. On Wednesday, the Council of Ministers initiated the first steps towards implementing the policy. The government stated that all 'necessary steps' would be pursued at the European level to enforce the halt on reunifications. While the Austrian People's Party (ÖVP) has been in government for years, critics argue that previous efforts to impose stricter family reunification policies have stalled, despite mounting pressure from the public and rising concerns over the sustainability of Austria's asylum policies. ÖVP voters were the most vociferous in their support of the plan, with 96 percent in favor of a more restrictive policy. This was followed by FPÖ supporters at 94 percent, with voters of the liberal NEOS even backing the proposal overwhelmingly at 83 percent. Voters of the Socialists (SPÖ) and the Greens also backed the plans by a majority, with 68 percent and 61 percent in favor respectively. Political analyst Alexandra Siegl told Heute that while the government's ability to enforce such a measure at the EU level remains uncertain, the shift in public sentiment toward more restrictive immigration policies is clear. 'It is not surprising that FPÖ and ÖVP supporters overwhelmingly back the halt on family reunifications,' Siegl said. 'However, the fact that majorities within the NEOS, SPÖ, and even Green voter bases are in favor highlights how attitudes on immigration have become more restrictive in recent years.'

New three-party coalition takes office in Austria
Austria's new three-party coalition government comprising the conservative Austrian People's Party (ÖVP), the Social Democratic Party (SPÖ) and the liberal NEOS was sworn in on Monday, ending months of political deadlock in the Alpine nation. Administering the oath to Cabinet members, President Alexander Van der Bellen urged the three factions to always put the good of the state before party interests. He also called on the new government to play an active role in strengthening the European Union in light of soaring global tensions. "We must strategically secure peace in Austria and in Europe," Van der Bellen said. The alliance will be led by ÖVP head Christian Stocker as chancellor, while SPÖ chief Andreas Babler will serve as vice-chancellor. NEOS party leader Beate Meinl-Reisinger will take on the role of foreign minister. The ÖVP and SPÖ have appointed six Cabinet members each, while the NEOS hold two ministerial posts. The swearing-in ceremony marked the end of a five-month search for a new government. The far-right Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ) won the parliamentary elections in September, but has been forced to go into opposition after coalition talks with the ÖVP failed earlier this year. The new alliance's primary tasks include boosting the economy and reducing the country's large budget deficit. The three parties have also agreed on a tougher approach to migration.

Austria Installs New Cabinet in Shadow of Recession, Far Right
(Bloomberg) -- More than five months after elections, Austria appointed a conservative-led government entrusted with pulling the economy out of recession while cutting the budget deficit and reversing a surge in right-wing populism. Cuts to Section 8 Housing Assistance Loom Amid HUD Uncertainty Remembering the Landscape Architect Who Embraced the City NYC Office Buildings See Resurgence as Investors Pile Into Bonds Hong Kong Joins Global Stadium Race With New $4 Billion Sports Park NJ Transit to Deploy Customer-Service Teams After Record Delays People's Party Chancellor Christian Stocker will lead a coalition that includes the Social Democrats and liberal NEOS as junior partners. Austria's long history of consensual rule was underscored last month, when the Freedom Party failed to form a government because it couldn't strike a compromise on its radical policy agenda. Germany's ill-fated three-way coalition — voted out of office a week ago — underscores the threat now facing its southern neighbor, whose fragile compromise cabinet now has to contend with an economy characterized by rising political risk. 'For the sake of the country, they've overcome their reservations,' President Van der Bellen said Monday, urging the new government to pay particular attention to economic stability and social cohesion. Christian Stocker, 64, has emerged as an unlikely Chancellor. Previously a party secretary and long-serving deputy mayor of a small city south of Vienna, he replaced Karl Nehammer as People's Party leader in January to break a negotiation deadlock Stocker's immediate job will be to implement a €6.3 billion ($6.6 billion) budget savings program that cuts the deficit to the European Union's limit of 3% of gross domestic product. A plan already presented by the government will taper public payments and raise bank taxes. The Social Democrat's Markus Marterbauer, the former top economist at the Chamber of Labour, was appointed to plot the recovery as Austria's finance minister. His research has focused on post-Keynesian economics and income distribution. Economic output fell by 0.4% in the fourth quarter of 2024, the eighth straight quarter of contraction, Statistik Austria said Monday. NEOS party chief Beate Meinl-Reisinger will steer the Foreign Ministry. The three parties will need to reestablish Austria's place in a turbulent geopolitical era. The country's neutrality - the last nation among continental EU members to shun military alliances - has broad public support, but is increasingly at odds with the risk posed by Russian expansionism and President Donald Trump's recalibration of US foreign policy. The government has pledged to buy new fighter jets and raise defense spending to 2% of economic output by 2032. Rich People Are Firing a Cash Cannon at the US Economy—But at What Cost?
