Sebastian Kurz
Sebastian Kurz is an Austrian politician who served as Chancellor of Austria from December 2017 until May 2019 and again from January 2020 until October 2021. He is a member of the Austrian People's Party (ÖVP) and gained prominence as the youngest head of government in the world at the age of 31. Kurz is known for his conservative policies, particularly regarding immigration and EU relations, and played a significant role in reshaping the ÖVP's platform to appeal to right-wing voters. His leadership was characterized by a coalition with the far-right Freedom Party (FPÖ), which eventually led to political controversies and his resignation amid corruption allegations.
