HALC Executive Director and HALC's Erini Kosmas break down what we can expect from the Prime Minister's new cabinet and more.

At the second time of asking, Kyriakos Mitsotakis has been re-elected as the Greek Prime Minister and his centre-right New Democracy party has won a second term in office.The June 25 elections saw the conservatives cruise to an eight-seat majority in Parliament as the collapse of their main rival, left-wing SYRIZA, continued.However, the results were notable for the emergence of three fringe parties, two on the far right. They managed to pass the 3 pct threshold for electing MPs to take the total number of groupings in Greek Parliament to eight.In this episode of The Agora, co-host Nick Malkoutzis and MacroPolis co-founder Yiannis Mouzakis discuss what the result means for how Mitsotakis will govern over the next four years, where it leaves SYRIZA and the third party, centre-left PASOK, why the far right is back and how the fringe parties could impact policy making in Greece.Useful readingGreece's conservatives win election majority to secure second term - https://www.politico.eu/article/greece-election-new-democracy-conservatives-win-second-term-kyriakos-mitsotakis/Greek Conservatives Score Decisive Election Win - https://www.wsj.com/articles/greek-conservatives-on-course-for-emphatic-election-win-d7dc0582?st=rlp7aawlgzm3ta1Populist Right Finds Fertile Ground in Greece - https://agendapublica.elpais.com/noticia/18682/populist-right-finds-fertile-ground-greeceKyriakos Mitsotakis' skills and luck - https://www.ekathimerini.com/opinion/1214127/kyriakos-mitsotakis-skills-and-luck/Why Greece's Left May Give Conservatives A Smooth Sail To Victory - https://www.huffpost.com/entry/greece-left-election_n_6492a754e4b041b71a12c681Do or die - https://www.ips-journal.eu/topics/democracy-and-society/do-or-die-6794/ Hosted on Acast.

Greece's Kyriakos Mitsotakis and his center-right party New Democracy won by a landslide in elections on Sunday, winning 40.5 per cent of the vote, enough for Mitsotakis to govern without a coalition partner. Mitsotakis described the results as “a strong mandate, to move more quickly along the road of major changes.” While New Democracy swept to power, Syriza continued its decline, winning less than 20% of the vote. In the meantime, three hard-right parties - including one that is endorsed by a jailed member of the neo-nazi Golden Dawn party - are set to enter Parliament. Yannis Palaiologos, a correspondent-at-large for Kathimerini and Inside Story, joins Thanos Davelis to break down Sunday's election results and look at what to expect from Mitsotakis in his second term.Read Yannis Palaiologos' latest in the Wall Street Journal: Greek Conservatives Score Decisive Election WinYou can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:Kyriakos Mitsotakis wins by a landslide in Greek electionsWith Resounding Win in Greece, Kyriakos Mitsotakis Tightens Grip on PowerPolice detain 50 after Pride march in IstanbulIstanbul gay pride activists stage annual rally in defiance of banMitsotakis sworn in as Greek PM, promises more jobs and 'big changes'New ministerial cabinet announced

Greeks are voting again in national elections on June 25 after an inconclusive ballot on May 21.New Democracy is set to return to power following a big victory last month.

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis' landslide victory on Sunday night in Greece's elections had many talking about a political earthquake. The markets seemed to take note as well, with Greek stocks and government bonds rallying sharply following New Democracy' win as Mitsotakis is keen to implement a pro-investment and pro-reform agenda. Wolfango Piccoli, co-founder of risk analysis company Teneo with a long experience in advising financial institutions and corporations on political developments in Europe, joins Thanos Davelis to discuss the market reaction to the Greek elections, the message the election results sent to investors, the reforms that a new government in Greece will need to focus on, and more.You can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:Mitsotakis victory: Five questions for marketsPriorities of the next governmentOnly way is up for securitiesPASOK leader reiterates no interest in ND coalitionSlow death or a second chance?Christodoulides calls island's division a European problem

It's time to celebrate the birthplace of democracy with a Greek election! With more than 30 parties and coalitions vying for votes, the stage is set for political chaos. Isn't democracy wonderful? Alex Andreou speaks to journalist and correspondent for ERT, Evdoxia Lymperi, to try and understand one of the year's most unpredictable elections.  “This is a mute election, nobody is willing to speak to the pollsters.” “Greeks are not Germans. They have no tradition of coalition governments.” www.patreon.com/bunkercast Written and presented by Alex Andreou. Producer: Liam Tait and Kasia Tomasiewicz. Audio editor: Robin Leeburn.

Greece is holding general elections on Sunday, May 21. The vote might lack the drama of previous elections, when the country's fate was on the line amid a devastating economic crisis, but it could still end up being a rather complicated and tense process.The Agora returns to examine the key issues going into this ballot, who the main players are, what the parties are promising, how the vote might turn out and why Greece could need a second election, if not a third as well, to choose a workable government this summer.Hosts Nick Malkoutzis and Phoebe Fronista are joined by Angelos Seriatos, head of political & social research at Greek polling firm ProRata, and MacroPolis co-founder Yiannis Mouzakis and our features editor Georgia Nakou to discuss all these issues.Useful reading Extremely complex yet surprisingly simple - https://www.ips-journal.eu/topics/democracy-and-society/extremely-complex-yet-surprisingly-simple-6699/Past austerity haunts Greek election as voters struggle with living costs - https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/past-austerity-haunts-greek-election-voters-struggle-with-living-costs-2023-05-15/Greek PM says country has changed, seeks new mandate to speed up growth - https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/greek-pm-says-country-has-changed-seeks-new-mandate-speed-up-growth-2023-05-16/Once Europe's Headache, Greece Finds Its Feet - https://www.wsj.com/articles/once-europes-headache-greece-finds-its-feet-dbe9b73c Hosted on Acast.

Undecided voters are expected to play a key role in Greece's national elections on May 21 as their percentage remains high - above 16 percent according to the latest polls. The new polls also show that the possibility of calling new elections remains strong, as the chances of polls leading to a single-party government or the formation of a coalition government seem remote. Panos Koliastasis, an Adjunct Assistant Professor of Politics at the University of Peloponnese and the author of the book "Permanent campaigning in Greece in times of crisis: the Samaras, Tsipras and Mitsotakis premierships", joins Thanos Davelis to break down the impact undecided voters could have on the election. We also look into what the latest polls mean for any efforts to form a government - whether it's by a single party or a coalition.Read Panos Koliastasis latest in Kathimerini (In Greek): Πόσο εφικτή είναι μια λειτουργική κυβέρνηση συνεργασίας;You can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:Role of undecided voters pivotalGovernment set sights on 420,000 new votersGreece to send more arms to Ukraine, but sets limitsRussia's Lavrov in Turkey to discuss Syria, Caucasus, possible Putin visit

In July, Greece went to the voting ballot to vote for change. The far-left party Syriza has been voted out of office, and the old right-wing party, New Democracy, has formed the new government under prime minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis. Not the economic crisis, but the controversial name deal with Greece's northern neighboring country was the reason for Syriza to lose. Under Syriza, Greece has agreed to call the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) North Macedonia. Many Greeks are unhappy with the deal. In this episode, we will ask historian Giannis Mavrogenis: Why does the Macedonian issue matter so much to many Greeks? And why was the 'Macedonia question' a bigger issue in the Greek elections than the economic crisis?
