Walter Ruck, the head of Vienna's Chamber of Commerce and Economic Chamber, resigned on Thursday following a wiretapping scandal that revealed nepotism, misogynistic remarks, and deals with Vienna's mayor Michael Ludwig (SPÖ). The pressure from his party, ÖVP, and other political figures led to his resignation. His former deputy, Margarete Kriz-Zwittkovits, will take over. Ruck's resignation comes after he was expelled from his party and faced criticism from Chancellor Christian Stocker and WKÖ President Martha Schultz.
