Hundreds demonstrated in Vienna once morest the Academic Ball, which was criticized as a right-wing extremist event. The so-called WKR or Vienna Corporation Ball was once primarily a meeting of fraternities. These right-wing student associations are still at the ball in the Vienna Hofburg. Students pay 50 euros, women and men pay 130 euros. The fact that right-wing extremists are apparently organizing a “lavish ball night in the imperial state halls of the Vienna Hofburg” is a thorn in the side of many.
Heinz-Christian Strache, who was excluded from the FPÖ, and the building contractor Richard “Mörtel” Lugner took part in the event.
The right-wing extremist identitarian Martin Sellner, one of the speakers on the topic of “remigration” at the controversial November meeting in Potsdam, where AfD politicians were also present, also came to the ball. According to reports from the research platform Correctiv from this meeting, there were and are protests once morest right-wing extremism in Germany.
Speaker from Potsdam: the right-wing extremist Martin Sellner
35-year-old Martin Sellner was the head of the Identitarian Movement in Austria until 2023. He is considered a representative of racist, ethnic and anti-Semitic theses.
Investigations once morest Sellner in Austria for possible involvement in terrorist attacks once morest mosques in New Zealand were ultimately discontinued.
However, the symbols of the right-wing extremist “Identitarian Movement Austria” (IBO) are banned.
The German authorities are considering an entry ban for Martin Sellner.
FPÖ leader Norbert Kickl and the party’s EU leading candidate Harald Vilimsky were not at the Academic Ball in Vienna.
