No political comeback
Christian Kern waves goodbye to potential chancellorship
Former Federal Chancellor Christian Kern (SPÖ) is not planning a political comeback. The newly re-elected Burgenland state party leader Hans Peter Doskozil declared at the state party conference in Eisenstadt that Kern as chancellor would be a "wise, good decision", which he described as "friendly recognition".
In his speech at the provincial party conference, Doskozil said that it "does matter which government is in charge of Austria's destiny".
Looking at the developments of recent years, it would "most probably be a wise decision, a good decision, if you (Kern, note) were our Federal Chancellor".
Kern: "Friendly recognition"
The ex-chancellor explained: "Everyone saw it as friendly recognition and nothing else, because the position of chancellor is not up for grabs." You have to be "very humorless" to take this seriously.
He confirmed that he is not planning a comeback as leader of the SPÖ. Kern had ruled out a political comeback at the weekend.
