Short vita
I am a Swiss-English Austrian, working as an FNF-intern with plans to study Philosophy, Politics & Economics at university. The interconnectedness between politics and economics and the way these two disciplines influence each other, thus affecting citizens, fascinates me. I speak English and German fluently, and am proficient in Spanish and French.

More Show than Real Power Option - The Failed Election for Spanish Prime Minister of Alberto Núñez Feijóo (PP)

Feijóo had been nominated as a candidate for inauguration by King Felipe VI in late August, as the PP had won the most seats in Spain's July 23, 2023 general election (but fell short of an absolute majority even together with votes from the right-wing populist VOX party).
