Integration Minister Claudia Bauer is working on a ban on political Islam. Following an initiative by former ÖVP leader Stocker, she sees a basis for this in the current government program.

Bauer stated that she wants to combat political Islam and its organizations in Austria and Europe by all means. She described this movement as the greatest danger of our time.

According to the minister, a concrete proposal for the ban should be presented quickly. The exact timing and details of the plan are still unclear.
