The centre-right opposition parties have won the country's parliamentary elections, while the Golden Amigi -- the far-right anti-imgration party, which earlier took third place -- has lost its 18 seats in parliament.
This party was particularly hostile to the Albanian community living in Greece. Researchers and media have widely described it as a neo-Nazi and fascist party, although the party itself has denied these qualities, writes Periscopi.
And the good news is that with 99 percent of the votes counted, Kyriakos Mitsotakis has won 39,85 per cent of the vote compared to 31.5 that won the Syriza of current Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras.
In the meantime, Golden Dawn has evolved over the years from an ultranationalist group to a significant force in Greek politics, but it failed to achieve more than 3 percent.
The party's flag is terribly similar to the flag of the terrible German dictator Adolf Hitler, and xenophobia and racism have often been voiced assimilar by party leaders.
In 2018, this party was accused by Greek media of executing a 63-year-old Albanian named Petrit Zilf. He was found in a ditch.
Greek voters give strong signals of reconciliation with the Albanian community in Greece through these votes, and these elections can be described as quite positive. /Periscope
