“It would work, if it does, and I would strive to do it, with a burden that we’ll only see in a few years,” Kogler explains.

The vice chancellor was rowing after an investigative effort for a “rigorous contribution of millions and billions of heirs” to finance the consequences of Corona in early April Werner Kogler (Green) step by step back. Now in the ATV interview, he explained “Millionaires and billionaires will not be left out entirely,” but the question arises “only in a few years.”

“It would work, if it does, and I would strive for a burden that we will only see in a few years,” Kogler says, according to a preliminary report in the “ATV Aktuell” interview on Saturday night. In his view, the millionaire tax issue comes up later because Austria can currently borrow money cheaply. But now he is “absolutely certain that this will enter into the considerations”, as regards the question of the necessary persuasion in the ÖVP: “because what else do you want to justify politically”?

“Only financial crisis”

On April 7, the Green Vice Chancellor vehemently insisted that “fair financing for the crisis should be raised” through the “tax” whenever there are inheritances and donations worth millions. “On April 18, he hesitated a little:” Since debts have to be paid, many things have to be rethought, “he said, but saw” in sequence “but” only to be discussed in the end. Emergency measures and relief are taken. “
