The People’s Party had been a partner of the far-right Freedom Party until it was toppled by a scandal.

In the recent snap election, the People’s Party emerged victorious.

The decision of the conservative faction to reach an agreement with the leftist has come as a surprise.

It is the first time the leftist has gotten an opportunity to become a part of the government.

Many have expressed their concerns about the sustainability of the coalition.

If securing borders is the main concern of the conservative faction, preventing climate change is the concern of the leftist faction.

In a statement released by a member of the sensational coalition government, it is said that both the climate and border concerns would be addressed by the new government.
