“When it comes to a crisis, unity and clarity are important. I demand unity and clarity in the state, and I also demand it in the federal government. And that is what citizens also demand,” Mikl-Leitner said in the “Kurier” (Thursday Edition) on the recent debates on the crown measures.

Especially with the Corona stoplight this didn’t work, there was no clarity. “In principle, I am asking for closer cooperation again, not just within the federal government.” At the meeting scheduled for Friday at the Chancellery between Chancellor Sebastian Kurz (ÖVP), Vice Chancellor Werner Kogler (Greens), Interior Minister Karl Nehammer (ÖVP) and Health Minister Rudolf Anschober (Greens) and the governors, Mikl-Leitner said: “I think it’s a good approach.”

According to Mikl-Leitner, no decision has yet been made regarding bringing the curfew to 10pm, in which Lower Austria has not yet participated. The federal states of Vorarlberg, Tyrol and Salzburg announced this step on Wednesday, and Federal Chancellor Sebastian Kurz (ÖVP) called on Vienna and Lower Austria in particular to do the same.

According to Mikl-Leitner, Lower Austrian medical staff will meet at the weekend to discuss how to proceed. The governor said she had not complied with Kurz’s request on Tuesday – the new measures only went into effect the day before. Now one wants to see first how the fit of the mask affects. “In general, I do not rule out new measures in Lower Austria,” he told the “messenger”.
