"The OeVP (People's Party) and Greens have agreed on a government programme together," a Greens representative with knowledge of the negotiations told AFP.

An OeVP official confirmed the same to AFP. The two parties' leaders are to make a statement later Wednesday. It will be the first time the Greens will rule on a national level in Austria.
