The polls spoke loud and clear: Greek society has overcome the crisis and wants to leave behind the era of extremes. The comfortable victory this Sunday of the conservative Prime Minister, Kyriakos Mitsotakis, surprised but not as much as the great defeat of an Alexis Tsipras.

With a difference between the winner and the losers of 20 points, the Greeks have not only made it clear that they do not want Syriza in government, but that they are also not convinced in the opposition.
