Vienna (OTS) –

Today, Monday, FPÖ General Secretary MP Christian Hafenecker, MA and FPÖ Deputy Club Chair MP Dr. Susanne Fürst received the Hungarian Chancellor’s Office Minister Gergely Gulyás and the Hungarian MEP Ernö Schaller-Baross for a working meeting in Vienna. The focus was on closer cooperation between the two countries on migration, national sovereignty and family policy. The security aspect was also addressed in light of the figures recently presented by the FPÖ on migrant and foreign crime in Austria.

“Especially with regard to the next five years and the upcoming legislative period in Austria, it is important to build closer relations at all levels with neighbouring countries such as Hungary, with which we share a long history and cultural tradition, instead of shamefully destroying them, as the Greens, their Vice Chancellor Kogler and the ÖVP are currently doing. When it comes to effectively combating illegal migration and protecting external borders, as well as pursuing right-wing conservative family and, subsequently, social policies, there is a lot to learn from our neighbour. I am therefore grateful to Minister Gulyás that he too is continuing to build bridges with us and that we can learn and benefit from the mutual know-how of our parties. As the successful cooperation at EU level in the joint “Patriots for Europe” parliamentary group and the associated election results in many European countries have already shown, people in Europe are longing for an end to left-wing social experiments and a policy of prohibition, censorship and paternalism. We as the FPÖ will continue to stand up for a sovereign Austria in a Europe of fatherlands and will fight for it together with Hungary against all resistance,” emphasised Hafenecker.

Hungary and Austria Strengthen Ties: A Shift in European⁤ Politics

In recent weeks, there have been significant developments in ‌European⁢ politics, particularly between Hungary and Austria.‌ The ⁤two countries, sharing⁣ a ‍long‌ history and cultural tradition, are strengthening their ties on ‍issues such as migration, ⁣national sovereignty, and ‌family policy. This newfound cooperation has implications⁤ for European politics and the upcoming legislative period in Austria.

A‌ New‍ Era of Cooperation

On Monday, FPÖ General Secretary MP Christian Hafenecker and FPÖ Deputy Club Chair MP Dr. Susanne‍ Fürst met ‌with Hungarian Chancellor’s⁢ Office Minister Gergely ⁣Gulyás and ⁢Hungarian MEP⁢ Ernö ​Schaller-Baross ⁢in Vienna‍ <a href="https://www.ots.at/presseaussendung/OTS20240909OTS0053/fpoe-praesidiale-hafenecker-fuerst-empfangen-hungarischen-minister-gulyaas-und-abgeordneten-schaller-baross”>[[[[[[[[]. The focus of the​ meeting was on‍ closer cooperation ⁣between the ‌two countries, particularly on migration, national sovereignty, and family policy. The security aspect was also addressed, with discussions on migrant and foreign crime in ‌Austria.

The Rise of the Far-Right

This increased cooperation between ⁢Hungary and ‌Austria is part of a⁤ larger⁣ trend in European politics. The far-right is experiencing​ a resurgence, with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban announcing plans ‌for a new alliance of⁢ European‌ populist parties [1[1[1[1[1[1[1[1]. The “Patriots​ for Europe”‌ parliamentary group, which includes‌ Austria’s ⁣far-right Freedom Party and populist Czech⁣ ANO, is gaining momentum [3[3[3[3[3[3[3[3].

Implications for ​European Politics

This shift in European⁤ politics has significant⁤ implications for the European Union (EU). An FPÖ-led ​government⁢ in ​Austria would exacerbate ‌difficulties in staying united on issues such as supplying⁢ weapons⁤ and aid to ​Kyiv and opposing gambits like‍ the Nord Stream 2‍ pipeline [2[2[2[2[2[2[2[2].

Conclusion

The strengthening of⁤ ties between Hungary and Austria marks a significant shift in European ⁤politics.⁢ As the​ far-right continues to ‍rise,⁤ it will be important ⁢to monitor the implications for⁣ European ​politics and the EU ⁣as a whole. ‍With the​ upcoming legislative⁤ period‍ in Austria, it remains to be seen ‍how this new era of ‌cooperation will shape the ​country’s politics and⁣ its relationships with neighboring countries.
