Hattmannsdorfer's ambition could pay off – Diepresse.com
The ex-state politician in Vienna quickly made a steep career: he is acted as a minister. Does it even end in the ÖVP head chair?
« First-Mover » is an attribute that one advanced into the first ÖVP series Wolfgang Hattmannsdorfer without a doubt. The WKO-General Secretary, who only switched from the country house on the Linz promenade to Vienna last summer, has worked into the first row of the ÖVP management team since the negotiations at the latest since the negotiations with the FPÖ.
The doctorate, which was responsible for social affairs and integration in the state government, is traded for a ministerial post. The fact that he worked as one of the driving forces behind the blue-turquoise project, which has failed at the end, does not seem to have harmed him now, since it goes back towards the triple coalition. The Upper Austrian is to become the new Minister of Economics. This was confirmed on Thursday, before the ÖVP party executive on Friday, but not.
In any case, if he becomes, his department will be lavish: it is called one of two « supereals » internally, in addition to that of work, social affairs and health that the SPÖ will occupy. The ÖBAG would hike from the (future red) Ministry of Finance and the energy from the Green Gewessler department to date. Tourism will also be in the future in this house.
