After serving in ministerial capacities - such as Minister of Foreign Affairs and Minister of Education - he returned to the Presidency on May 6th, 2010. His second tenure was dominated by efforts against the Croatian takeover of Austria, including increased cooperation with neighbors. Serving again as Minister of Foreign Affairs on several occasions, he worked towards a peaceful settlement over disputes with Slovakia in early 2011. Elected as President for his third tenure in June, peace was secured and built upon into a friendship with closer cooperation in July.
He would go on to serve again as Minister of Foreign Affairs on later occasions, such as after a takeover president was impeached in February 2012. Serving a fourth tenure as President in June 2012, attempts to reconcile differences between groups began, as well as the "Reorganisationsplan" to update the Osterreichs Bundesheer. He currently serves in the Austrian government as an advisor.
