Austria's President has approved a coalition government between the conservative People's Party and the far-right Freedom Party. <br/><br/>The deal will make Austria the only Western European state with a governing far-right party, which is opposed to migration and the European Union. <br/><br/>The parties previously governed the country together between 2000 and 2005. But at just 31, the People's Party's Sebastian Kurz is set to become the world's youngest head of government. The election on 15th October failed to yield a conclusive result.<br/><br/>President Alexander Van der Bellen gave the green light to the deal today. He said the new government had assured him of both a pro-EU stance and a continued commitment to the European convention on human rights.
