Last night Greek parliament approved an austerity plan, that guarantees receiving next rescue fund from EU, ECB and IMF.

The agreement with private creditors about limiting Greek debt by 100 billion euro was also approved by parliament.
Austerity deal endorsement is a first step towards receiving second rescue fund by Greece.
