Reading through JTA articles...

...and found this, Figl's December 1945 defense of his appointment of known antisemite Leopold Kunschak as president of the National Assembly:


"In an attempt to explain his appointment of Kunschak to such an important post, Figl said that Kunschak 'is not anti-Semitic on racial grounds, but on economic grounds,' adding that Kunschak is 'an old man and has some fixed ideas.'"


No comment necessary, I think.
