What would an FPO government look like in Austria?
Briefly

The Freedom Party of Austria (FPO) is preparing for a significant election year with its new manifesto, titled "Fortress Austria, Fortress of Freedom," which emphasizes national identity, security, and economic stability.
The FPO's party programme includes hardline immigration policies, advocating for the suspension of the right to asylum when Austria feels "overburdened,” and rejecting asylum applicants who pass through safe countries.
Herbert Kickl, the FPO leader, emphasizes the need to preserve "Austrian" culture against foreign influences, proposing measures like maintaining Catholic symbols in public spaces.
The manifesto also introduces the concept of "re-migration," aimed at the repatriation of migrants, reflecting the party's long-standing populist and nationalistic themes.
