EU odahnula posle poraza kandidata ekstremne desnice u Austriji - EU relieved after the defeat of the candidate of the extreme right in Austria



Objavljeno : 05.12.2016.             

Poraz kandidata desničarske Slobodarske partije Austrije (FPO) Norberta Hofera na predsedničkim izborima u Austriji umirio je vlade ostalih članica EU, dok je krhka koalicija na vlasti u Beču privremeno odahnula. Ovi izbori su bili neka vrsta barometra za to kako bi populističke stranke mogle da prođu drugde na izborima u Evropi. FPO se, međutim, uprkos neuspehu, sada okreće dugoročnom cilju - uspehu koji bi mogao da ostvari na parlamentarnim izborima.

Nezavisni predsednički kandidat i ubeđeni Evropejac Aleksandar Van der Belen pobedio je na izborima održanim 4. decembra osvojivši, prema preliminarnim rezultatima, 53,3% glasova, dok je Hofer osvojio 46,7% glasova.

Van der Belen (72), bivši lider Zelenih, koji je isticao da su ovi izbori ključni za budućnost Austrije u EU, rekao je da rezultat predstavlja poruku Austrije svim prestonicama EU.

Ovaj bivši profesor ekonomije koji je emigrirao iz Estonije sa roditeljima kao dete, vrlo glasno podržava Uniju, zagovara liberalnu migrantsku politiku i često upozorava na ono što vidi kao direktno skretanje Evrope ka populizmu i nacionalizmu.

Hofer je 45-godišnji inženjer koji se probio kroz partijske redove i najavio svoju kandidaturu za mesto predsednika kao jedan od troje predsedavajućih donjeg doma parlamenta Austrije. Od objavljivanja kandidature prošle godine, Hofer se nametnuo kao jedna od vodećih ličnosti FPO.

Austrijska ekstremna desnica nadala se da će imati koristi od proboja evroskpetičnih pokreta protivnika imigraciije na međunarodnom planu, posle odluke građana Velike Britanije da ta članica istupi iz EU i pobede kandidata republikanaca Donalda Trampa u SAD.

Kandidat FPO nije, međutim, usmerio kampanju na istupanje iz EU, već se predstavljao kao zagovornik zaštite radnih mesta i veće kupovne moći i osveženje u odnosu na Socijaldemokratsku partiju Austrije (SPO) i konzervativce iz Austrijske narodne partije (OVP) koji vladaju decenijama Austrijom.

Te dve velike stranke koje su na vlasti od 2007. nisu želele kohabitaciju sa predsednikom iz redova ekstremne desnice jer bi njihovu koaliciju izložio snažnom pritisku.

Olakšanje posle prizanja poraza

Hofer je priznao poraz na predsedničkim izborima, pošto su prvi zvanični rezultati pokazali da je Van der Belen osvojio više glasova. On je naveo na društvenoj mreži Fejsbuk da je "beskrajno tužan" zbog poraza, dodavši da "bi bio srećan da vodi računa" o Austriji.

On je čestitao svom suparniku i pozvao Austrijance na jedinstvo i saradnju.

U FPO sada stavljaju težište na dugoročni cilj, odnosno rezultat koji bi ta stranka mogla da ostvari na parlamentarnim izborima, s obzirom da je na predsedničkim izborima osvojila podršku gotovo svakog drugog briača.

Evropa je posle ovakvog ishoda austrijskih izbora mogla da odahne. Šef italijanske diplomatije Paolo Đentiloni je rekao da su rezultati ovih izbora dobra vest za Evropu a predsednik Evropskog parlamenta Martin Šulc da je to "jasna, proevropska poruka" Austrije.

"Austrijski narod se opredelio za Evropu i otvorenost", rekao je francuski predsednik Fransoa Oland, dok je šef nemačke diplomatije Frank-Valter Štajnmajer rekao da je to "dobro znamenje za Evropu".

Evropski komesar za proširenje Johanes Han izjavio je 5. decembra u Beogradu da je pobeda Van der Belena na predsedničkim izborima u Austriji bolji rezultat za Austriju i njen položaj u Evropi i svetu.

"Pobeda Aleksandera Van der Belena je snažan signal da se populizam ne isplati", rekao je Han na zajedničkoj konferenciji za novinare sa premijerom Srbije Aleksandrom Vučićem.

Predsednička funkcija u Austriji je pretežno ceremonijalna, ali su ovi austrijski izbori smatrani barometrom za druge zemlje EU koji će pokazati kako bi populistički kandidati u drugim članicama Unije mogli da prođu na predstojećim izborima.

Populistički političari u EU koji se zalažu za izlazak svojih zemalja iz EU pružali su podršku Hoferu uoči i posle predsedničkih izbora u Austriji i pažljivo pratili tok izbora.

Lider holadnske Partije slobode Gert Vilders čestitao je FPO na hrabroj borbi, dok je predsednica Nacionalnog fronta Marin Le Pen ocenila da će naredni parlamentarni izbori doneti pobedu FPO.

Trka za novog predsednika Austrije trebalo je da bude završena u maju, kada je Van der Belen pobedio Hofera sa malom razlikom. Međutim, FPO nije priznala rezultat izbora tvrdeći da su zabeležene brojne neregularnosti tokom glasanja.

Ustavni sud je 1. jula odlučio da će izbori biti ponovljeni. Izbori su bili zakazani za oktobar ali su naknadno odloženi za 4. decembar zbog neispravnosti glasačkih listića.

Defeat candidate right-wing Freedom Party of Austria (FPO) Norbert Hofer in the presidential elections in Austria reassured governments of other EU member states, while the fragile coalition government in Vienna temporarily relieved. These elections were a sort of barometer for how to populist parties could go elsewhere in the elections in Europe. FPO, however, despite its failure, now turning a long-term goal - the success of which could be realized on the parliamentary elections.

The former economics professor who emigrated from Estonia with his parents as a child, very loudly supported the Union, migrant advocates for liberal politics and often draws attention to what it sees as a direct diversion of Europe towards populism and nationalism.

Hofer is a 45-year-old engineer who got through the party ranks and announced his candidacy for President, as one of the three chairpersons of the lower house of Parliament of Austria. Since the publication of candidacy last year, Hofer has emerged as one of the leading figures FPO.

The Austrian extreme right had hoped to benefit from breakthroughs evroskpetičnih opponents imigraciije movement at the international level, following the decision of the citizens of Great Britain that the State withdraw from the EU and the victory of Republican candidate Donald Trump in the United States.

Candidate FPO is not, however, directed the campaign for withdrawal from the EU, but is represented as an advocate to protect jobs and greater purchasing power and refreshments in relation to the Social Democratic Party of Austria (SPO) and the conservatives of the Austrian People's Party (OVP), which ruled for decades, Austria.

These two big parties that are in power since 2007 did not want cohabitation with the President from among the extreme right because it would expose their coalition strong pressure.

Relief operations acknowledgments defeat

Hofer has conceded defeat in the presidential election, as the first official results showed that Van der Belen won more votes. He said the Facebook social network that is "infinitely sad" about the defeat, adding that he "would be happy to take care" of Austria.

He congratulated his rival and urged Austrians to unity and cooperation.

The FPO is now putting emphasis on the long-term goal, or result that this party could achieve in parliamentary elections, considering that in the presidential election won the support of almost every other Briac. Europe after the Austrian elections this outcome could not breath.

Italian Foreign Minister Paolo Gentiloni said that the results of these elections is good news for Europe and European Parliament President Martin Schulz that it was "clear pro-European message" of Austria.

"Austrian nation has opted for Europe and openness," said French President Francois Hollande, and German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier said it was "a good sign for Europe".
EU Enlargement Commissioner Johannes Hahn said on 5 December in Belgrade that the victory Van der Belena the presidential election in Austria a better result for Austria and its position in Europe and the world.

"Pobeda Alexander Van der Belene is a strong signal that populism is not worth it," Han said at a joint press conference with Serbian Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic.

Presidential feature in Austria is largely ceremonial, but these Austrian elections considered a barometer for other EU countries to show how populist candidates in other member states could go in the upcoming elections.

Populist politicians in the EU who are committed to their countries of EU had provided support Hofler before and after the presidential elections in Austria and carefully followed the course of the election.

Lider holadnske Freedom Party Geert Wilders congratulated the FPO on a spirited fight, while the President of the National Front of Marine Le Pen estimated that the next parliamentary elections bring victory FPO.

The race for the new President of Austria was to be completed in May, when Van der Belen Hofer won by a small margin. However, the FPO did not recognize the election result, claiming that they recorded numerous irregularities during the vote.

The Constitutional Court decided on July 1 that the elections will be repeated. The elections were scheduled for October but were subsequently postponed to December 4 due to the malfunctioning of ballots.
