VIENNA - Austria’s Greens said on Sunday they are willing to enter formal coalition talks with former Chancellor Sebastian Kurz’s conservative party, opening the door to negotiations that could bring them into national government for the first time.
Kurz’s conservatives won the Sept. 29 parliamentary election - held in the aftermath of a video sting scandal that ended his coalition government with the far right - by a clear margin. But he needs a coalition partner to control parliament. Failure to move on to formal talks would mean Kurz would need to turn to either the Social Democrats, with whom he has had difficult relations, or again to a far right still reeling from the sting, in which its leader was filmed offering to fix government contracts at a dinner party, and renewing that alliance could hurt Kurz’s image.
The Greens have called for an overhaul of Austria’s tax system to reflect the environmental impact of goods. Kurz, whose typical supporters include big business and farmers, has said he does not believe environmental measures should create extra costs for the Austrian public at large, and notably car owners.

Smoky Beans and Greens on ToastBeans and greens are great on almost every carb: in tortillas as tacos, over rice, on flatbread. They're also good without any carb at all, served in a bowl as a side. But whenever skillet-fried toast is an option, I take it. This is dinner food for me, but it also makes a good brunch with a fried egg on each plate.
