Summary/Abstract: On 25 June, early parliamentary elections were held for a second time in Greece this year. They were won by the centre-right and pro-European New Democracy party of Kyriakos Mitsotakis, prime minister from July 2019 to May 2023. Unlike the previous election on 21 May, the result of the latest vote enabled him to form a one-party cabinet, which was sworn in on 27 June. The next New Democracy government will probably bring in further reforms to foster the economy. They will also mean maintaining Greece's existing foreign and defence policy.
