The far-right Freedom party (FPO) topped Austria's parliamentary elections, achieving 29%, signaling a significant victory for the radical right in Europe despite not securing an absolute majority.
The Freedom party's performance marks a comeback after nearly collapsing due to the Ibiza scandal, showcasing how illiberal parties are increasingly gaining traction across Europe.
This trend follows a year where populist parties like Slovakia's Robert Fico and France's Marine Le Pen recorded notable electoral successes, demonstrating a shift towards nationalism and Euroscepticism.
