Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz is already the official subject of a corruption probe after it was proven that he lied before the Parliamentary Commission about the Ibiza scandal and the subsequent issues that arose from it.

It was Prime Minister Kurz himself who told a news conference today that prosecutors in the case had contacted his chief of staff Bernhard Bonelli and informed him that the prime minister and his office were under investigation due to suspicions that may have given false evidence before the commission.

"It is really a pity that the way has been paved for the Commission to incite a conflict atmosphere, to ask you tendentious questions and often implications, and in the end distort every word that comes out of your mouth," Kurz said in a speech he denied. categorically allegations of corruption.

The commission was set up to address the "Ibiza" scandal that led to the break-up of the coalition between Kurz's party and the far-right party led by Hans-Christian Strauch. The work of this commission has led to the discovery of other scandals that weigh on Kurz and his close associates ( read the scandals in the article translated by Tiranapost) .
