The good news for SYRIZA leader Alexis Tsipras is: His election victory has been even higher than was expected in general. The bad: His Syriza has missed an absolute majority in the 300-member Greek Parliament for two seats and is therefore dependent on coalition partners. A SYRIZA spokesman confirmed on Monday morning that the leftist coalition forms a coalition with the right-wing populist party Independent Greeks (Anel). The leader of the Nationalist Party, Panos Kammenos - a former foreign policy expert at the conservative party "New Democracy" - had the collaboration announced immediately after his meeting with SYRIZA chief Tsipras. Although the two parties are at opposite ends of the political spectrum, they entered the rejection of austerity.

The Independent Greeks have noticed in recent years, especially by radical positions. Her biggest fine images, the party ranks illegal immigration. Politically contact their representatives regularly in my foot. The latest example: Before the failed third attempt of the Greek Presidential Election of the year claiming their deputy Pavlos Haikalis, we have tried through an intermediary to bribe him so he vote for the candidate of the conservative ruling party. When it became known that Haikalis itself makes good business with shady middleman, the right-wing populist rowed back.
Even more than the Left Party, the right-wing populist appeal to the emotions of the voters. On his final rally before the election thundered party leader Kammenos against the "austerity" the lender and the growing poverty, unemployed Greeks forced to migrate. "We are bringing your children back," he promised his followers.
SYRIZA insists on renegotiation
In the Greek media feverishly speculated that the Left Party remains after the formation of a government in its radical campaign rhetoric and the loan agreements with international donors aufkündigt or yet agreed to an agreement. In recent weeks, all SYRIZA politicians have taken softer tones. But in principle it would maintain the rejection of austerity, says Panagiotis Lafazanis, leader of the left SYRIZA wing of the party, in a radio interview. "There's not back down, SYRIZA sticks to his election program on the next EU summit obtain the Heads of State and Government clear to hear that austerity is over, "warns the Politicians. "We remain in all that we announced during the election campaign," assured on election night and SYRIZA politicians Kostas Poulakis, which is considered a close confidant of party leader Tsipras.
But how should the Greek economy are funded when it comes to the break with international donors? Replied Jannis Balafas, these questions would now be placed in a different context. First case did not concern an agreement with the troika (n. D. Talk .: consisting of representatives of the EU, the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund), but a debate on the sustainability of debt servicing, the SYRIZA politicians had on TV interview announced.
Strong desire for political renewal
The unexpectedly large victory of SYRIZA is symptomatic of the desire for a renewal of the political personnel in Greece, believes the pollster Takis Theodorikakos: "The political parties in Greece should not underestimate the fact that Tsipras would be the youngest prime minister in the country's history - although he has not collected any experience in public office. "
Pasok Chairman Evangelos Venizelos has the message of the voters clearly understood first: Still on election night, he announced in the near future to hold a party congress to select the Social Democratic party leadership again. Even after the parliamentary elections in 2012, Venizelos had promised to hand over power to the generation of thirty to forty year olds. The outgoing Prime Minister Antonis Samaras, however, did not think of a retreat from the chairmanship of his party.
