New Democracy, mockingly called New Dictatorship or No Democracy, is the ruling political party in Greece.

The party has Makis Voridis as Vice President (and also currently Minister of the State), who is an anti-Semite who has cooperated with the CIA-backed military junta of 1967.[1]

Furthermore, Voridis, as well as other high-ranking party officials (such as the party's vice president, Adonis Georgiadis ) are former members of LAOS, a far-right party whose former leader, George Karatzaferis is openly antisemetic. [2]
