Kyriakos Mitsotakis casts his vote in Greece's second round of general elections in five weeks, with the conservative front-runner seeking a second term and an absolute parliamentary majority to form a "stable government". The 55-year-old Harvard graduate, who steered Greece from the coronavirus pandemic back to two consecutive years of strong growth, had already scored a thumping win in an election just a month ago. But having fallen short of five seats in parliament to be able to form a single-party government, Mitsotakis chose to ask 9.8 million Greek voters back to the ballot boxes. IMAGES
