If the TIF proved that the programmatic differences between the parties have been minimized, it is the job of politics to prove it has got the message

Two wars with no end in sight, alongside elections in Greece, Italy, France, Germany (regional) and Spain and an EU unable to break its own deadlock make for an explosive winter

The middle class will decide the election again, but only the party that speaks to their real pressures, income and public services, not just tax cuts, is likely to win them over

People actually believed Karystianou would bring transparency and justice to this country. That Tsipras had changed. That Kasselakis could become 'the next prime minister.' That Mitsotakis is the "Nixon of Maximou" That PASOK would come become the top party

Still, the "calm waters" have grown murky. And it’s hard to see them running clear again, as long as Turkey continues to harbor grandiose ambitions

Mitsotakis returns from summer needing a convincing "why" for a third term. With a fatigued government and fragmented opposition, Greece risks an election of political noise rather than real governing visions

Before Trump, Greece had Deligiannis — 'Mr Peace-War' — who mastered the art of fooling the public. Now Trump does it globally, leaving NATO rattled, the Iran deal uncertain, and US foreign policy a rudderless mess

Given that we live in a country where elections always bring their fair share of commotion, we can definitely expect the six months between September 2026 and March 2027 to see the nation in full campaign mode

What is striking, however, is the political class’s resolute unwillingness to cooperate—and hence, their total lack of realism

Two new parties emerging in the Greek political scene born out of widespread disatisfaction with different aspects of the status quo
