Geburtstag auf dem Bauernhof: Kurz als Mahner - Österreichs Ex-Kanzler wird 40
In seinen Glanzzeiten war Sebastian Kurz populär, hatte aber auch viele Gegner. Nach Ermittlungen verabschiedete er sich von der Politik. Aber nicht so ganz, wie es scheint.
On his 40th birthday, former Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz returned to his political roots at his farm in Lower Austria. The staunch anti-immigration advocate foresees a future where the focus will be on deporting refugees, not just from borders but from Europe as well. "It will naturally be the case that nobody wants to let anyone in anymore - and it will become far more restrictive," Kurz stated to Deutsche Presse-Agentur, without mentioning the term 'remigration'.
He advised fellow conservatives in Europe to make clear statements, as many moderate parties often hesitate to express their true beliefs. Kurz's political career was marked by his popularity among conservative voters, who flocked to his party after his tenure. He attributes the rise of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) to the policies of other parties and the restrictive immigration policies of Angela Merkel's administration.
Kurz remains a prominent figure in Austrian politics, having earned a billion-dollar business empire in his post-political life.
