The Austrian chancellor has said he would seek a ban to stop Turkish ministers from campaigning in Austria in support of a referendum for constitutional amendment in Turkey next month.

Speaking to the Austrian broadcaster ORF on Monday, Austrian Chancellor Christian Kern said he would try to prohibit Turkish ministers from campaigning in Austria to gather support from Turks in Austria for the April 16 referendum.

The referendum could bring drastic changes to the country's political system, including a shift to an executive presidential system from the current parliamentary system.
