Austria to swear in new leader
By EUobserver
Austria plans to swear in immigration hardliner Karl Nehammer as its new chancellor on Monday, after its former one, Sebastien Kurz, quit politics amid corruption allegations. Nehammer is a former soldier and communications adviser, who said fighting covid would be his main priority. Kurz quit as head of his party last week, after saying that having had a newborn child had clouded his judgment in the occupation affair.
