Because the May 2023 Greek legislative election did not result in the formation of a new government, President Katerina Sakellaropoulou appointed him to be the caretaker Prime Minister of Greece on 25 May 2023, becoming the 100th holder of that office. He served as caretaker prime minister until the formation of the new government of Kyriakos Mitsotakis after the June 2023 election.
