VIENNA (Reuters) - The leader of Austria's main conservative party, Sebastian Kurz, said he had reached a deal to form a governing coalition with Heinz-Christian Strache's far-right Freedom Party (FPO).
The two declined to provide immediate details on their coalition agreement, reached after less than two months of talks, that will make Austria the only western European country with a far-right party in government. They were due to hold a news conference at 4 p.m. (1500 GMT).
