The Greek left-wing government has faced no confidence vote and protests on 16 June, due to an agreement with Macedonia that resolves the name issue.
Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras is expected to review the vote, which takes place the day before the meeting of the two foreign ministers of Macedonia and Greece, for signing the name agreement.
The agreement to change the name of the northern Greek neighbour, with the appointment of the Northern Republic of Macedonia, is supported by the United Nations, the European Union, the US and NATO.
But, this agreement has also faced fierce opposition from both countries.
The largest Greek opposition party has called this agreement “capitalisation” and has called for a no-confidence vote in Parliament, meanwhile, Macedonian nationalist President George Ivanov, has vetoed the agreement if ratified in Macedonia's Parliament.
