Austria's ÖVP, SPÖ, and Neos Reach Coalition Agreement After Months of Negotiations

The coalition's program is set to be presented Thursday, with ministerial appointments and party approvals still pending.

Austria's conservative ÖVP, social-democratic SPÖ, and liberal Neos have finalized a coalition agreement after resuming talks last Saturday.
The coalition's program is expected to be publicly presented on Thursday, though ministerial posts are yet to be allocated.
This marks the second attempt at forming a three-party coalition, following a failed effort in January and unsuccessful talks between the ÖVP and far-right FPÖ.
The FPÖ emerged as the largest party in the September election but faced widespread rejection from other parties for coalition talks.
If party committees approve the agreement, the new government could be sworn in as early as Monday.
