There will be elections for the National Council on Sunday, after which coalition negotiations will begin. When the SPÖ participates in government, his name is mentioned again and again: Peter Hanke, Vienna City Councilor for Finance. A few days before the elections, municipal councilor Hanke speaks about ‘economic budgeting’ and makes a coalition recommendation.
Will Austria soon say ‘Mr Federal Minister’ to him? The Viennese City Councilor for Finance Peter Hanke (SPÖ) is being exchanged for higher orders in a possible federal government at the ÖVP. But how does the top politician see the most important issues of our time? We asked him:
About the flood: As a municipal councilor he is responsible for the fire brigade. Hanke would like to thank all emergency services. And further: “We have seen that we can easily control even a thousand-year flood.”
About public transport: “Any delays in construction projects are inconvenient for the residents of Vienna, for which I have also apologized,” the city council explained. When will the U2 run continuously again? Answer: “The end of October plus maybe two weeks.” The Wiener Linien must succeed during this period. The annual subscription of 365 euros will initially remain valid until 2026.
