Germany Approves Third Greek Bailout By Wide Margin Despite Surge In “Nein” Votes

Germany Approves Third Greek Bailout By Wide Margin Despite Surge In “Nein” Votes (ZeroHedge, July 17, 2015):

Following Wednesday’s Greek vote approving the draconian terms of the Third Greek bailout, the next biggest hurdle for the implementation of another round of Greek aid was Germany’s parliamentary vote whether to endorse the terms cobbled together over last weekend. Moments ago it did just that in a vote which had been widely expected to pass without complications, when 439 members of the lower house of parliament voted in favor Berlin to starting negotiations on a third bailout program for Greece, 119 voted against and 40 abstained. A total of 598 votes were cast.
