Despite a notable 11-percentage-point decrease in support for populist and authoritarian parties in Greece from 2015 to 2023, the country still ranks fourth among 31 European nations in the Authoritarian Populism Index, with 44.3% electoral backing for such parties; left-wing populist and authoritarian parties lead in Greece with 31.5% support, while right-wing counterparts stand at 12.8%, reflecting a broader trend across Europe where one in three citizens supports such parties, with slight increases in northern European countries and slight declines in left-wing parties across the EU.
