"The sovereign Greek people spoken," New Democracy leader Kyriakos Mitsotakis said on Sunday, in his first statements after the elections.

The stalled Helleniko privatization abruptly surfaced on the heated campaign trail this week, a day after joint ministerial decision was issued that included provisions bitterly opposed by the international consortium that has won the concession to build and manage the biggest-ever real development project in Greece.

The President of New Democracy (ND), Kyriakos Mitsotakis said the country would be led to the ballots again, in the event the July 7 national elections did not produce a result.
