"This was to be expected from the outset", comments Upper Austrian FPÖ leader Manfred Haimbuchner on the collapse of the government negotiations in Vienna. The deputy of FPÖ chairman Herbert Kickl is not sparing with his criticism: "Important time was pointlessly wasted."

Less than two hours after the end of the "Zuckerl" in Vienna, the powerful Freedom Party leader reacts to the current events in Vienna. In Upper Austria, the Blue Party is governing successfully with the People's Party, and Manfred Haimbuchner can also imagine this kind of cooperation in the federal government. 

I am very much looking forward to the analysis of the Federal President, whose decisions have contributed to the fact that important time has been stolen from the country.

But: "At the beginning of the year, what was to be expected at the start of the negotiations has now been confirmed. These election losers are not in a position to make the necessary decisions for the future of the country." Haimbuchner does not have a good word to say about the federal ÖVP. 

"I look forward to the Federal President's analysis"
The Upper Austrian FPÖ leader and deputy governor continued: "It's good that this spook is over, it's bad that important time has been wasted that could have been put to better use. I am very much looking forward to the analysis of the Federal President, whose decisions have contributed to important time being stolen from the country."
