The Greek Parliament rejected the no-confidence motion submitted by the conservative opposition to Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras's government. 153 MPs voted against, while 128 were pro.
The vote was preceded by a fierce debate between Prime Minister Tsipras and opposition leader Kyriakos Mitsotakis. Opposition leaders voiced their opposition to the Macedonia new name agreement.
While Foreign Minister Nikos Kotzias said the country is divided into two camps -- those who want a solution and those who have created all problems. Earlier outside parliament were severe clashes between police and Golden Dawn supporters.
The far right MP, who the previous day called for the coup, has been declared on the run.
