The Greek government defends its new bailout program as lawmakers are debating to vote on it at the parliament.

The 86-billion-euro rescue package is to help Athens stay in the eurozone and avert bankruptcy. It will include harsh spending cuts and tax hikes. However, Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras says he has no option but to implement it. Greek MPs are debating the bailout ahead of a vote at the parliament. Greece and its creditors reached an agreement on the third international bailout on Tuesday. But the deal has yet to be approved by eurozone members. Germany and France say they want further information about Greece’s economic plans. Eurozone finance ministers will meet in Brussels to give their verdict on the package on Friday.
