奧地利共和國

位於西歐的內陸國,為全球少數的永久中立國,截至目前都沒有參加任何軍事聯盟,全球和平指數排名第6,幸福指數排名第11。然而COVID-19疫情期間,旅遊業嚴重受創,使該國成為歐盟受疫情影響最嚴重的國家之一。俄烏戰爭則讓情勢更加嚴峻。奧地利消耗的能源當中有20%依賴天然氣,其中又有80%天然氣來自俄羅斯,故能源轉型成為政府首要之務。政府另外要解決兩個問題,第一是落後於歐盟其他國家的數位化轉型,第二是人口老齡化造成的勞動力不足。奧地利當局規定的入籍條件相較嚴苛,是歐盟入籍率最低的國家之一。國際貨幣基金2022年建議奧地利適當開放入籍條件,將能稍微緩解勞動力不足的問題。

With a population about 8.6 million, Austria is one of the richest nations in the world. Its GDP per capita ranks among the top 15 in the world. One of the few permanently neutral countries in the world, Austria will never join any military alliance nor allow any state to set up military bases within its territory. International peacekeeping operations are the only exception. As a result, many international organizations are headquartered in Vienna, creating the best national defense for Austria. The news frequently reports on Austria as the place where international negotiations are held.
