In Vorarlberg, Austria, the ÖVP and FPÖ are on the brink of forming a new coalition government.

After a decade of ÖVP-Green collaboration, the political landscape is shifting back to a ÖVP-FPÖ alliance, reminiscent of pre-2009 governance.

The negotiations, led by ÖVP's Markus Wallner and FPÖ's Christof Bitschi, have been progressing positively, with both parties aiming to finalize the coalition pact by the weekend.

The main challenge remains the distribution of government seats, with the FPÖ potentially securing three out of seven.

The new government is expected to be elected in the upcoming Landtag session, marking a significant political shift in the region.
