The Klaus Tschütscher cabinet was the governing body of Liechtenstein from 25 March 2008 to 27 March 2013. It was appointed by regent Alois on behalf of Hans-Adam II and chaired by Klaus Tschütscher
History
The 2009 Liechtenstein general election resulted in a win for the Patriotic Union.[1] As a result, the Second Otmar Hasler cabinet was dissolved and succeeded by Klaus Tschütscher as Prime Minister of Liechtenstein.[2][3] The Patriotic Union and Progressive Citizens' Party once again entered into a coalition government.[2]
The government's term in office was marked by an effort to move the country away from being a tax haven.[4] It also included the passing of a same-sex registered partnership and Liechtenstein joining the Schengen Area in 2011.[5]
Tschütscher did not stand for re-election in the 2013 Liechtenstein general election and was succeeded by Adrian Hasler in the First Adrian Hasler cabinet on 27 March 2013.[3][4][6]
