One of the favorite topics of discussion among Greeks during their vacation this summer is the uncertainty, if not confusion, surrounding the timing of the next election.
Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis publicly insists that the country will go to the polls in the spring of 2027. Still, his actions point to an early election this fall.
In the latter scenario, the most likely date would be a few weeks after his keynote speech on economic policy at the Thessaloniki International Fair on September 5, where he is expected to offer a package of handouts, targeted subsidies and tax cuts that could amount to € 2 billion.
An objective assessment of the present political reality leads to the conclusion that we will end up with some form of coalition government
The prime minister is expected to weigh the pros and cons and make up his mind during his own vacation, in August.
