New finance minister
How left-wing are you really, Mr. Marterbauer?
He only owns two suits and prefers to walk: in his first interview, the new Finance Minister Markus Marterbauer (60) talks about his change of role, the Herculean task of budget restructuring and why the Mateschitz posting was "clumsy, but right in terms of content".
From the Chamber of Labor in Prinz-Eugen-Straße to Palais Questenberg-Kaunitz in Vienna's Johannesgasse 5: "This is all a new world for me," says the new Finance Minister almost reverently. Until recently he was still wearing T-shirts, now he is sitting in a suit and red tie under the baroque frescoes with the angels on the ceiling. His predecessor's borrowed Prachensky still hangs on the wall, apart from a few pieces of furniture and a few books, there isn't much else.
"There are still plants coming, I'm a very nature-loving person," explains Markus Marterbauer and has a pot of green tea brought in. The economist answers questions without thinking and extremely precisely, accompanied by a friendly smile.
