government party

Wrong, FPÖ wasnt in government when the video was made and isnt in government now either.

And there is no proof that "Austrian intelligence helped the Wirecard CEO flee to Russia". Also Marsalek wasnt CEO. The guy who supposedly helped him escape is an ex intelligence member who is well known for his controversial views and role in scandals.

But you're definitely right about the fascist party's ties to Russia and the strength of the economic elite.
