Austria (Bureau Report) Vienna’s Mayor Michael Ludwig (SPÖ) was satisfied that the federal government was considering stricter measures. “Personally, I am very happy that the federal government is now apparently moving towards Vienna’s path to security and stability.” He has drawn a lot of criticism because Vienna has taken its own measures. These could prevent Vienna or Austria from being put on red lists again, which would prevent tourists from coming into the country. Ludwig now wants more talks. The federal government, the federal states and the other regional authorities must now agree on how to get through the summer safely, he said.
