Austria's far-right leader Herbert Kickl has been given a mandate to form a government, positioning the Freedom Party closer to power than ever since World War II. Chancellor Karl Nehammer's resignation following failed coalition talks has led the conservative People's Party to reconsider ties with Kickl's party. This development follows a significant electoral gain for the Freedom Party, which has built momentum on a pro-Russian, anti-immigrant platform. Kickl's potential rise could signal a broader nationalist trend across Europe.
