Demonstrations in downtown Vienna, old politicians, require an expert government, the discussions between the FPÖ and ÖVP are said to be in a difficult phase. Can the coalition negotiations still fail? The Styrian SPÖ chairwoman Max Lercher does not believe that it gets that far. “The ÖVP knows exactly what it is doing when it comes to power and post,” said Lercher on Tuesday in ORF-Report. The politician suspects nothing more than “price drives”. “They were always perfect in that.” An expert government is a possibility in the event of a failure, but “at the moment pure speculation”.
