Representatives of the Freedom Party (FPÖ) placed signs on their desks with the words "Space for Peace" and "Space for Neutrality" and left the hall. 

However, on Tuesday, March 28, the party warned that it would hold a form of protest against the President's address. 

"It is sad that the FPÖ is the only party in parliament that takes our ever-lasting neutrality seriously, thereby also standing up for peace," said FPÖ leader Herbert Kickl.

Zelenskyy thanked Austria for its humanitarian assistance, including demining. After the speech, other members of parliament applauded the President of Ukraine.
