Two MPs have officially broken away from SYRIZA, with their resignation letters submitted to the Greek Parliament on November 21. This move shifts the status of PASOK to the official opposition, surpassing SYRIZA in the number of MPs.

Despite the change, neither party has enough MPs to propose major motions such as impeachment or committee inquiries.
