Austria's far-right Freedom Party (FPO) will lead the state government in Styria for the first time, after securing a coalition deal that appoints its leader Mario Kunasek as governor.
The far-right Freedom Party (FPO) will lead a state government in Austria's Styria region for the first time, after finalizing a coalition deal with the conservative People's Party (OVP) on Tuesday.
FPO leader Mario Kunasek is set to become governor, marking the first such leadership by the party in any of Austria's nine states since the 2000s.
The coalition agreement was reached three weeks after the FPO's victory in Styria's recent state election, contrasting with protracted national coalition talks following Austria's general election in September.
Despite the FPO securing 29% of the national vote, its Russia-friendly and eurosceptic stance led other parties to exclude it from coalition discussions.
Kunasek highlighted the coalition's plans, which include local infrastructure reforms and a focus on security issues, such as a ban on religious clothing for state administration employees.
