The Freedom Party (FPO) leader Herbert Kickl announced failed coalition talks with the conservative People's Party (OVP) after disputes over the distribution of key ministries, particularly interior and finance. Following the elections in September, the FPO emerged as the dominant party, but initial coalition efforts were unsuccessful. President Van der Bellen tasked Kickl with the negotiation, which ultimately faltered due to fundamental disagreements over policies, particularly regarding asylum seekers and EU relations, raising the possibility of new elections or a renegotiation between the OVP and Social Democrats or NEOS.
The Freedom Party's coalition talks with the People's Party have failed due to deep disagreements over government ministries and differing views on asylum and EU policies.
The OVP and FPO are at odds, with the OVP insisting on clear positions on Russia and asylum issues, leading to a failure in negotiations.
