Austrian far-right leader Herbert Kickl aims to "govern Austria honestly" following a parliamentary election victory.
Kickl's Freedom Party now has a mandate to form a government, marking a significant political shift since World War II.
He is open to new elections if coalition discussions with the conservative Austrian People's Party fail, emphasizing his expectations for stable leadership.
Kickl highlighted Austria's major budget and trust deficits, criticizing mainstream parties for their past governance.
The government formation comes after the Freedom Party captured 28.8% of the vote, reflecting rising public support in recent polls.
