Athens (AFP) - Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras on Monday took his oath of office a day after being re-elected in a snap general election.
Tsipras took a civil oath "to uphold the constitution and laws" of the country, and is expected to name a coalition government by Wednesday to begin applying the terms of the tough EU bailout he signed onto in July.
