August decision on election timing seen

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and his government are still undecided on the timing of the next general election, despite public statements suggesting otherwise. They aim to finalize their decision before Mitsotakis delivers a keynote speech on economic policy at the Thessaloniki International Fair on September 5. While opinion polls indicate that the conservative New Democracy party remains ahead, they are not securing a clear parliamentary majority. The government faces challenges related to public dissatisfaction with daily life issues and its own governance, but there is no unified opposition alternative emerging. Officials hope that addressing these concerns through measures like price controls on essential goods and fuel subsidies will reinforce the narrative of stability and continuity, potentially influencing the election timing. However, ongoing developments in the Middle East might affect the government's financial strategy, possibly reducing the size of planned economic relief packages.
