Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis claimed victory in a parliamentary election on May 21, saying he had a mandate to form a strong autonomous government.

Early official results indicated on May 21 that Mr. Mitsotakis' conservative New Democracy Party was set for a big win in Greece's election, but was short of the majority needed to form a one-party government.

"The ballot results are decisive. They show that New Democracy has the approval of the people to rule, strong and autonomous," Mr. Mitsotakis said.
