The President of the Republic, Katerina Sakellaropoulou, is calling the political leaders to a meeting today, after the submission of the three exploratory orders for the formation of a government.
Ms. Katerina Sakellaropoulou, after the submission and return of the three exploratory orders for the formation of a government, calls the leaders of the parties of the Parliament resulting from the May 21 elections to a meeting at the Presidential Palace today, Wednesday May 24 at 11:00 am. , according to article 37 par. 3 subsection c’ of the Constitution, where the impossibility of forming a government by the newly elected Parliament will be ratified.
Then, by the weekend, a caretaker government will be formed that will lead the country to elections. Reports say he will be announced on Thursday and sworn in on Friday.
Yesterday it is recalled that the cycle of exploratory orders to the parties by the President of the Republic was closed, without, as expected, a governmental solution or even an attempt at a governmental solution. Both Kyriakos Mitsotakis, Alexis Tsipras and Nikos Androulakis returned the investigative order.
Formation of a caretaker government
The attempt to form a cooperation government, as expected, did not bear fruit, so the process is rapidly moving to the next stage, which provides for the appointment of a caretaker government with the most likely prime minister being the president of the Court of Auditors, Ioannis Sharma, who is the oldest of the presidents of three Supreme Courts of the country.
Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs is expected to be appointed ambassador t.v. Vassilis Kaskarelis. For the Ministry of National Defence, the ambassador-at-large, Pavlos Apostolidis and the ambassador-at-law, Dimitris Paraskevopoulos, are nominated. In the Ministry of Health, the professor of pulmonology and intensive care of EKPA, Anastasia Kottanidou, is expected to be appointed as minister.
At the same time, according to a new Decree of the President of the Republic, Katerina Sakellaropoulou, the convening of the Parliament is accelerated for Sunday, May 28, instead of Thursday, June 1, as was set by the Presidential Decree for the dissolution of the previous Parliament.
In particular, at 18:00 on Sunday, May 28, the swearing-in of the deputies will take place, while the next day, Monday, May 29, at 10:30 am, the deputies will elect the President of the body. It is noted that the Speaker of the Parliament is elected by roll call and by an absolute majority of the entire number of deputies. If no one obtains an absolute majority, the vote is repeated between the first two in votes and the person who received the most votes is elected. On the same day, the Parliament will be dissolved and the presidential decree announcing the second round of elections will be sealed, with the date “locked” for June 25.
