Greece snap elections likely after summer

PM Tsipras has lost his coalition majority in Parliament, and thus has to rely on the support of proreforms opposition parties. Situation may even worsen as further reform bills are presented before Parliament.

"Opposition parties will likely make PM Tsipras government pay when the timing is right (no real leader, capital controls, economy worsening, programme negotiations). This is likely to result in snap elections after the summer", says Barclays.

Even if support for Syriza falls (also if it splits), PM Tsipras still is very popular, favoured by 68% to lead a new government.
