He has been invited several times to provide information about University committees, but the ex-chancellor’s knowledge gains have always been limited. That does not stop the ÖVP from examining the era of Alfred Gusenbauer.
As is known, the ÖVP also established a U-committee immediately after the announcement that the SPÖ and FPÖ would establish a U-committee. Ironically, the ÖVP also wants to investigate René Benko. “Ex-SPÖ Chancellor Gusenbauer and FPÖ leader Herbert Kickl are permanent fixtures in the ‘Red-Blue Swamp’ committee. We will scrutinize the machinations of Kickl and Gusenbauer,” says ÖVP mandate Andreas Hanger.
The focus should be on three points: At Kickl, we need to look at filling vacancies, placing advertisements and purchasing. With ex-SPÖ Chancellor Gusenbauer, it is important to clarify the opaque flow of money from René Benko’s Signa to Gusenbauer and also what role the SPÖ played in the 2017 election campaign.
