Do you expect the ÖVP to make progress on this issue after October 11?
We discovered that it is the strategy of the turquoise in Vienna to fish in the blue pond with the right or wrong means.
In the coalition pact there would also be the possibility of creating an area free of coalitions, especially on the issue of refugees, to go their separate ways here. Wouldn’t the Greens at least show more attitude here, yeah Are they going this route?
But attitude is not enough for me, we also do something. We have quintupled humanitarian aid in the Foreign Disaster Fund compared to black and blue, from 10 million to 50 million. In recent weeks we have pledged two million to UNHCR for concrete aid in Lesbos. Taking in a few children would be manageable and not a crisis.
On Friday he advised Wolfgang Sobotka to resign from the chairmanship of the U of Ibiza Committee until the contradictions over the Alois Mock Institute were resolved. Sobotka is a confidant of the Chancellor. Isn’t your demand a new affront to the ÖVP?
My answer to a journalist’s question was simply that I would instead retire from the Presidency until the discrepancies were resolved. That would be my personal advice to him.
Turquoise versus green is also the name of the game when it comes to the issue of plastic dispensing. Finance Minister Gernot Blümel wants to ask taxpayers to pay, while Green Minister Leonore Gewessler wants to ask plastics manufacturers. Is there a compromise in sight?
Surprisingly, there are a great many similarities in a myriad of economic and environmental issues. To get out of this crisis, we will have numerous ecological steering effects. Two-thirds of the many billions that will exist here will be invested in protecting the climate and the environment. That is going very well. We bring a lot of green power to the slopes. There will be a plastic package with various measures, some of which have alternative effect. And here the plastic tank will probably play a decisive role. The point is that we need a plastic package with various measures, some of which have an alternative effect because we have to achieve much higher and better quotas. This should mean that the imposition of sanctions on the EU is less. There will be more to the deal than many suspect.
How should the plastic tank be designed?
The plastic bin should be an incentive for more high-quality plastic to enter the recycling cycle. The costs of an implementation system are certainly cheaper than the taxes that we would have to pay to the EU.
