#70years after Austria’s accession to the #UN, one thing is clear: A rules-based international world order is crucial for our security. That is why we are running for a seat on the UN Security Council for 2027/2028. We must work together to ensure peace, freedom, and prosperity.

It's not just social media. Looks like visitors to the US from Europe and other countries that are part of the visa waiver program will have to submit an enormous amount of data about themselves and their families, including DNA, if proposed new rules are accepted

Everyone has been getting richer over the past 30 years. The super rich have been increasing their wealth much faster than the rest though. This means inequality increased too.

We need to build up European military capabilities swiftly.
Strengthening European defence and supporting Ukraine are not separate tracks.
They are mutually reinforcing priorities.

The OSCE was established to keep war away from Europe.
Yet, Russia blatantly violates international law and OSCE principles.
The EU will stay the course.
Only more pressure on Russia and more support to Ukraine will change the balance.
