  • The Declaration of Neutrality was a declaration by the Austrian Parliament declaring the country permanently neutral. It was enacted on October 26, 1955 as a constitutional act of parliament, i.e. as part of the Constitution of Austria. Formally, the declaration was promulgated voluntarily by the Republic of Austria. Politically, it was the direct consequence of the allied occupation by the Soviet Union, the United States, the United Kingdom and France between 1945 and 1955, from which the country was freed by the Austrian State Treaty of May 15 of the same year. The Soviet Union would not have agreed to the State Treaty if Austria had not committed itself to declare its neutrality after the allied forces had left the country. Since 1955, neutrality has become a deeply ingrained element of Austrian identity. Austria's national holiday on October 26 commemorates the declaration. Legally, Austrian neutrality is both part of the Austrian constitution and of international law. There is an ongoing debate among legal scholars whether Austria could change this neutral status on its own account. This is a moot point, however, since there is no political or popular support for doing so.
  • Die Neutralität ist seit ihrer Beschlussfassung am 26. Oktober 1955 ein grundlegendes Element in der österreichischen Außenpolitik. Seit 1965 ist der 26. Oktober in Erinnerung daran der Nationalfeiertag Österreichs. Die Neutralität wurde allerdings durch den EU-Beitritt per 1. Jänner 1995 und durch weitere seither beschlossene neue Verfassungsbestimmungen überlagert.
  • La Neutralité autrichienne (Immerwährende Neutralität Österreichs) est constitutionnelle depuis la loi pour la neutralité (Neutralitätsgesetz), adoptée par le Conseil national de l'Autriche le 26 octobre 1955.
  • La Dichiarazione di neutralità fu un atto Costituzionale del Parlamento austriaco firmato il 26 ottobre 1955, che stabilì la perpetua neutralità dello Stato nei confronti delle dispute internazionali. Formalmente, la dichiarazione fu promulgata volontariamente dalla Repubblica d'Austria, politicamente, era invece la diretta conseguenza dell'occupazione militare sovietica, statunitense, britannica e francese, dalla quale l'Austria fu liberata a seguito del Memorandum di Mosca firmato il 15 aprile 1955, e che suggellava i negoziati tra Unione Sovietica ed Austria, stabilendo che il governo austriaco: Il Memorandum di Mosca è l'unico documento ufficiale internazionale che contiene la promessa di neutralità dell'Austria e le condizioni dell'Unione Sovietica per la conclusione del Trattato di Stato siglato il 15 maggio dello stesso anno. I sovietici non avrebbero acconsentito al Trattato se l'Austria non avesse dichiarato la neutralità dopo che le forze alleate avessero abbandonato il territorio. Tutto questo era mirato al fatto che l'Austria non si unisse alla NATO.
