Beate Meinl-Reisinger is a politician in Austria. She is the boss of the party NEOS. She talks about the money from the state. Austria has many debts.
The government wants to save money. Pensions will rise less in the future. They rise less than the inflation. This means money loses value. It makes things more expensive.
Meinl-Reisinger says: This is fair. Workers also get less money. The government uses the money for the future. They pay for schools and kindergartens.
The minister also wants to save on climate. The state stops some subsidies. Subsidies are money from the state for firms. Now there is more wind and sun energy. This makes Austria independent from oil and gas.
The army works closer with other countries in Europe. The party FPÖ does not like this. They fear for the neutrality. Neutrality means staying out of wars.
The government wants to save money at the ORF. The ORF is the public radio and TV. They still discuss these plans. Meinl-Reisinger wants less power for politicians at the ORF.
