After weeks of speculation and internal strife, Austrian Social Democratic Party (SPÖ) leader and Vice-Chancellor Andreas Babler has announced his resignation. He will step down at the beginning of 2027, with Finance Minister Markus Marterbauer set to take over as party chairman and vice-chancellor. Until then, Babler will remain in his posts, leading the party alongside Eva-Maria Holzleitner and Philip Kucher in a transitional three-person committee.
