New Greek parliament convenes, only to be dissolved as early as Monday

Greek lawmakers were sworn in on Sunday, but Parliament may be dissolved as early as Monday ahead of fresh elections on June 25.
No party achieved an overall majority in the May 21 election, with the ruling New Democracy winning 146 seats, five short of an overall majority in the 300-member chamber.
The new election will be fought under a different system awarding a bonus of 25-50 seats to the winning party, and if more parties enter parliament the share of the vote needed for an outright majority will be higher.
