The House is expected to return to a “fiery” political climate immediately after the holidays, as the date for the big showdown of political leaders has been set. On Easter Thursday, April 16, the plenary will be in the spotlight with the debate on the rule of law in Greece.

The debate on the agenda was triggered after an official request submitted by PASOK president and leader of the opposition, Nikos Androulakis.

The move is expected to bring all political leaders to the floor of parliament in a debate that is seen as pivotal for the political scene in 2026. The agenda of the debate is expected to be particularly “heavy”, including issues related to the functioning of institutions and transparency, the independence of the judiciary and the reports of international organizations on the state of the rule of law in the country.

The government and the opposition are expected to cross swords in a debate that will be broadcast live, with interest from citizens being heightened as the issue of institutional shielding remains high on the social agenda.

It is the first major parliamentary “battle” after Easter, which will set the tone for the rest of the political season and the parties’ priorities in the face of the challenges ahead, APA-MPA reported.
