Local politicans of Styria quarrel about Arnold Schwarzenegger
The former Hollywood actor and current governor of Califormia, Arnold Schwarzenegger, who was born in the Austrian province of Styria, was and still is the person of stimulation to quarrel for Styrians politicans.
When Arnold Schwarzenegger arrived in Austria on Sunday to visit his birth place, it was the starting shot again for political discussions about him.
It was Kurt Flecker from the Socialdemocratic Party who started the dispute this time. He said, also any governor from a Chinese province would be welcome in Styria the same way as Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Peoples Party chairman Christoph Drexler answered: “You cannot compare Schwarzenegger with a governor of a communist and undemocratic China.”
The mayor of Graz, the federal capital of Styria, wants the vice-mayor to apologize to Schwarzenegger about the bad words he said about him last time. This kind of demand comes a bit too late. Schwarzenegger already left Austria yesterday evening.
