In the parliamentary elections held on Sunday, Greece’s conservative party emerged as the clear winner, securing an outright majority.

Concurrently, far-right parties made notable gains, while the left-wing parties faced challenges, resulting in Greece’s parliament tilting further to the right than at any point since the restoration of democracy in 1974, Politico reported.

Under the new electoral system, which grants the winning party 50 bonus seats, Kyriakos Mitsotakis’ New Democracy party managed to expand its double-digit lead over its main rival, the left-wing Syriza party. New Democracy secured 158 seats out of the 300-seat parliament.
