Former LH will soon be 75
ÖVP senior Pühringer: “Election was probably a wake-up call”
Upper Austria's former provincial governor Josef Pühringer is celebrating a special anniversary: the once (and still) influential ÖVP politician is 75 years old. The chairman of the ÖVP seniors is keeping a close eye on the politics of the day. How does he view his party's performance? The "Krone" spoke to him about it.
"Krone": When you think back to your active time, what was different? Why have there been such major shifts in the political structure?
Josef Pühringer: The challenges have become greater. The last five years in particular have been absolutely challenging times - from the pandemic and the war to inflation and gas prices. None of this is usual in normal political times. On top of that, of course, the ÖVP has also had to deal with the affair, which was anything but helpful and led to a loss of confidence.
