(Local report Salzburg)
On March 11, 2024, the highway in Salzburg occurred due to the overhead line damage. This was closed for around two hours in the evening-the reason: a US military truck was off and damaged the overhead line.
In addition to the hollowing out neutrality, due to the approved NATO transport by Austria, the Austrian population had to endure this massive traffic obstacle on Monday evening. During the main traffic time (5:30 p.m. to around 7:15 p.m.), the entire A1 motorway was closed around the Salzburg city area. The extent exceeds a "normal" transport. This NATO trip was not a device transport, but tons of ammunition were transported! The risk was that the US military truck went into a residential area.
According to the monopoly media, it was part of the NATO exercise from Germany. The maneuver "Quadriga 2024" (we reported: We reported: "Steadfast Defender 2024" - largest NATO exercise in decades ) not about those exercise countries like Slovenia. At that time, only the maneuver "Grand Center" (from Germany to Poland) should take place in the published plans for "Quadriga 2024" and the maneuver "Grand North" (from Germany to Norway).
On Tuesday, the FPÖ was loud against this accident and is now calling for an explanation. If you are skeptical about this FPÖ “maneuver”, it was the FPÖ that was just this law that allows such ammunition transports in 2001.
In another medial short message, it now states that the damage from the "Disposal Land" must be paid. However, taxpayers bear the costs for the repair, because these are now predicted by the Republic of Austria.
It has to be decided against the further hollowing out of neutrality and its restoration requested. It is not only transports that are waved through Austrian territory, but loads for the population, whether by costs or the risk of ammunition loads in the residential area!
