TL;DR Summary

Greece's conservative New Democracy party, led by Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, has won a resounding victory in Sunday's parliamentary election, securing around 40.5% of the vote and a safe majority of around 157 seats in parliament. The Coalition of the Radical Left (Syriza) gained around 18% of the vote, while the center-left Panhellenic Socialist Movement (PASOK) received almost 13% of the vote. The election was called to break a political deadlock caused by an election last month, and Mitsotakis' party chose to call for another vote rather than seeking to set up a coalition government.
