Repeated appeal by the Prime Minister elections at the end of a four-year term and estimates that place them in April make this government one of the few post-colonial governments that are close to completing a four-year reign. And indeed, with an important difference: the current government maintains its lead in the polls and again has a high chance of winning the elections.

The three governments that ran out of the four-year post-colonial period (the government of North Dakota in 1977-1981 and the PASOK governments in 1985-1989 and 2000-2004) essentially stayed until the end of the term because it was obvious that they were going to lose elections as it happened. In contrast to long governments, we find short periods between elections when elections are repeated in the same year for three years: in 1989, 2012 and 2015, during periods of crisis. The last government to have four years expired was that of Kostas Simitis. PASOK won the elections in April 2000 and remained in power until March 2004, when elections were held again. ND won. and Kostas Karamanlis formed his first government until September 2007 when elections were held. N.D. he won again, however this second term of Kostas Karamanlis lasted only two years, until October 2009. Since the economic crisis has already hit the Greek economy, despite assurances to the contrary, PASOK took over the government of the country that won the elections. and Georges Papandreou remained in power until November 2011. During the reign of this government, which was accompanied by the beginning of a period of intense political crises and reshuffles, the first memorandum was signed. In November 2011, Lucas Papademos took over as prime minister, and elections were held in the country in May 2012. ND won the election. led by Antonis Samaras. However, no government was formed, and after a cycle of pre-orders, elections were again held, in which the ND again won. Mr. Samaras formed a government with PASOK and DIMAR.

The difference between the government of Mitsotakis and the government of N.D. 1977–1981 and the PASOK governments 1985–1989 and 2000–2004. is that she is coming to the end of her term with a clear advantage.

In January 2015, the life of this government ended, as the Parliament failed to elect the President of the Republic. Now it’s SYRIZA’s turn, which has already dramatically increased its percentage since the 2012 elections. Electoral victory did not come with independence and Alexis Tsipras collaborated with Panos Kammenos and ANEL to form a government. After adventurous negotiations with creditors, a referendum, and the closure of banks, the SYRIZA-ANEL government agreed on a third memorandum, the adoption of which was accompanied by the departure of a significant number of SYRIZA deputies and led to new elections in September 2015.

SYRIZA again won the elections without independence, and Alexis Tsipras again collaborated with Panos Kammenos. ANEL left the government in January 2019 due to the Prespa Agreement. However, the deputies of Panos Kammenos voted in favor of the agreement and expressed a vote of confidence in the government. The government of Alexei Tsipras was approaching the end of a four-year term.

The result of the European elections in May and a difference of almost 10 points in favor of the ND, as well as the result of the self-government elections, turned plans around. Fearing a complete electoral collapse of SYRIZA, the elections were expedited and held in July 2019. became the first party, and Kyriakos Mitsotakis formed an independent government.
