“Voting for patriotic parties works. This became apparent just a few days after the liberal success in the National Council election. 17 European countries, including 14 EU states, are now demanding a stricter asylum policy from the EU Commission. International media see a clear connection between this initiative and the recent electoral successes of patriotic parties from the EU election to the Austrian National Council election,” said the EU spokeswoman for the Freedom Parliamentary Club and MEP Petra Steger.
core of the advance, which is said to have been deposited on Friday in the form of a letterare a stricter EU return system with clearer cooperation obligations for those obliged to leave the country and fewer interpretations by the European Court of Justice. “Both are essential. In the last few days has Eurostat has shown this once again with the latest figuresthat the majority of asylum seekers who are not worthy of protection remain in the country despite notices to leave the country. In addition, the European Court of Justice has… Ruling in favor of a general right to asylum for more than 20 million Afghan women provided further proof of his political bias, which manifests itself as constant sabotage of a restrictive asylum policy,” continued Steger.
The outgoing Austrian Finance Minister and designated EU Commissioner for Migration, Magnus Brunner (ÖVP), is therefore urgently required from the first day of his soon-to-be-started term of office. “It must reform the asylum and migration pact in its entirety by the time it comes into force in 2026 and significantly tighten it up. The EU must ensure that neither rejected asylum seekers and their supporters from the NGO scene nor the countries of origin of illegal immigrants nor the international courts dance on its nose. If that doesn’t succeed, more and more EU countries will withdraw from the common asylum policy and protect their citizens from illegal mass immigration on their own – certainly Austria too, if it gets a patriotic government in accordance with the will of the voters,” said Steger.
In any case, Brunner will soon have the opportunity to make up for the damage he caused to the Austrians with a restrictive asylum policy at EU level as finance minister of the voted out black-green government have. “The budget hole, which grew to 3.3 percent of gross domestic product shortly after the election, further diminishes Brunner’s credibility. It will therefore be necessary to keep a close eye on him in Brussels – not only in migration policy, but also in the issue of new shared debts, which Brunner’s future boss Ursula von der Leyen is campaigning for, contrary to all EU rules.” , announced the liberal EU MP.
