Now party leader Alexis Tsipras three days to find a coalition partner.

Already Monday starts soundings, when Tsipras meets the small right-wing populist party Independent Greeks. Party is in corpse with Syriza against crisis agreement with the EU.

Valgets win

– Today the Greek people written history.

So began Tsipras his victory speech Sunday night, after it became clear that his party wins the election in Greece by a clear margin.

Sitting Prime Minister Antonis Samaras, head of the conservative party New Democracy, acknowledge defeat in elections in Greece. On Sunday evening he called Alexis Tsipras to congratulate him and the party Syriza victory.

New government

Greece has now chosen a party has been campaigning for them to stop payment of the country’s billion debt abroad.

The big question was long the party would get a clean majority after the election, and if they then could form a government alone.

Brackets Options for leftist

When 95 percent of the votes were counted on Monday night, had Syriza 36.4 percent of the vote and was set to 149 or possibly 150, the National Assembly 300 mandates.
151 mandates could Syriza ruled alone, but to be Prime Minister must party leader Alexis Tsipras now find a partner among the other parties.

Economists are unsure of what they will actually mean that Greece fails to pay its debt.

Record debt

Greece currently has over 3,000 billion in debt. If Greece breaks all agreements with the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund IMF, EU and the European Central Bank, they can be kicked out of the EU.

Tsipras now has three days upon themselves to form a government. If he can not do it, the trip continues to the second largest party, and then the third largest, neo-Nazis. Alternatively, he may announce early elections.

There are two smaller parties like Syriza could theoretically enough in common with to be able to form a coalition, but both refuse to participate in a coalition where the other is with.
