Earlier it was reported that the Vice-Chancellor of Austria, Heinz-Christian Strache, intends to leave his post because of the video that appeared on the network, which shows how he allegedly discusses secret financial transactions.
The video was spread by the German media, claiming that Strache’s interlocutor was some kind of “Russian woman”. At the same time, according to the politician, the dialogue took place with a Latvian citizen.
Shortly after what happened, the ministers of the coalition government from the Austrian Freedom Party announced their resignation.
