More about Greece
Politics
According to the constitution that came into force on June 11, 1975 (amended several times), Greece is a parliamentary republic. The head of state is the president elected by parliament for a period of five years (one-time re-election is permitted), whose powers were essentially limited to representative functions in 1996. He represents the state under international law, is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, drafts the laws passed by parliament and, under certain conditions, can dissolve parliament. Ekaterini Sakellaropoulou has been President of the Republic since January 22, 2020.
The executive rests with the government, which requires the confidence of parliament. The President appoints the Prime Minister and, on his proposal, the other members of the Cabinet. The highest legislative body is the National Assembly (300 members, elected for 4 years; 250 members are elected according to proportional representation; the strongest party receives 50 seats as a bonus, this rule will be abolished in the next election). In order to receive a parliamentary mandate, a party must win at least 3% of the valid votes. The active right to vote begins at 17 years of age, the passive at 25 years of age; Elective is compulsory up to the age of 70. Parliament can remove the president (with a two-thirds majority) and impose a state of emergency. After the early parliamentary elections on 7.7. 2019 took over Kyriakos Mitsotakis from the conservative Nea Dimokratia (ND) party took over the post of Prime Minister from A. Tsipras from the left-wing SYRIZA party.
Domestic policy: The consolidation of the national budget through a rigorous austerity policy is showing initial successes, so that Greece was able to leave the international rescue package in 2018. At the same time, however, broad sections of the population are affected by a considerable reduction in prosperity and social hardship. The refugee problem has been significantly alleviated by the EU-Turkey Agreement (2016). Unsustainable conditions in the initial reception camps have not yet been sufficiently improved.
Foreign policy: After the resolution of the name dispute with the neighboring republic of North Macedonia (2018), Greece maintains friendly relations with all southern European countries. Foreign policy problem areas are the high number of illegal immigrants from Albania and the unresolved Cyprus issue in relation to Turkey. Greece has been a member of NATO since 1952 (membership suspended from 1974–80), the European Union since 1981 and the euro zone since 2001.
