Keywords such as EU army, neutrality or NATO accession are omnipresent in the current EU election campaign. After all, the discussion about Austria’s neutrality has flared up again since the beginning of the Ukraine war. A special edition of the ORF III discussion format “zur SACHE” on the occasion of the upcoming European Parliament elections will examine the topic from different angles on Friday, May 31, 2024, at 8:15 p.m. Reiner Reitsamer will discuss questions surrounding NATO, neutrality and solidarity with Heinz Fischer (former Federal President), Irmgard Griss (former President of the Supreme Court, former NEOS member of the National Council), Velina Tchakarova (security expert) and Christian Ultsch (Die Presse).
