Austria's three main centrist parties have reached an agreement to form a coalition government, shutting out the far-right Freedom Party (FPO) despite its victory in last September’s parliamentary election. The deal ends Austria’s longest post-election deadlock since World War II, as the FPO failed to secure enough support to govern. The far-right party had campaigned on issues like immigration, inflation, and EU skepticism but was unable to form a coalition. This outcome is seen as a win for mainstream politics in Austria, countering the rising influence of hard-right movements across Europe. The new government is expected to be formally presented later this week.
