Matthias Strolz, founder of NEOS, talks to Jürgen Winterleitner about the challenges in education and migration in a krone.tv interview. For him it is clear: “Good education policy is the best social policy.” He calls for more investment in language support and clear migration rules. He does not rule out a political comeback. He would be available as Minister of Education.
The NEOS founder and now entrepreneur sees education as the central issue for Austria’s future. “Good education policy is the best social policy, the best health policy,” Strolz emphasizes in an interview on krone.tv with Jürgen Winterleitner. For him, the integration of children from immigrant families in particular, some of whom do not speak German after a few years, means a failure of the education system: “If four- and five-year-olds are supported for two years, I am convinced that they will speak German fluently.”
Strolz on migration: “There are too many coming”
He also sees the need for action on migration policy: “There are too many coming, we need to be stricter, like Canada is doing.” At the same time, he calls for better integration of workers already in the country. “Every construction site and every hospital would stand still without foreign workers.” He calls for clear rules and emphasizes that education plays a key role.
Strolz does not rule out a political comeback: “When it comes to education, that is the subject of my life, and I would take my responsibility again.”
