The right-wing parties ran as a coalition, single box in the ballot. The left-wing parties ran isolated and want to form a coalition after the results. The problem here is one of perspective: there are no winners or losers, there is only number of seats in parliament, and the left has the majority. The President can invite whoever he chooses to form government and he chose the right.
There have been successful minority governments before. In this case, the left (if they can reach an agreement) is claiming that they will pass a vote-of-no-confidence on this government.
There is another issue here. The President himself is on the way out and he cannot call for new elections. But everything is proceeding according to our constitution, so democracy is safe.
