When I knew it, half a month had passed

According to Kathimerini, on the 7th local time, Greek Minister of Education Pierakakis announced a draft law allowing the establishment of private universities in Greece, calling it a "historic step" for Greek higher education and the country.

The Greek constitution prohibits the establishment of private universities in the country. Although educational institutions from the United Kingdom and the United States can open branch branches in Greece, Greek law does not recognize these institutions as higher education institutions.
