VIENNA (Reuters) – State aid for Austrian Airlines, which the government in Vienna is currently negotiating with parent company Lufthansa

“When it is about an industry that particularly needs to contribute to climate protection, then it makes a lot of sense … to use this situation to support this transformation.”
