Greece's Parliament on Thursday ratified a draft bill formally requesting activation of a eurozone-IMF support mechanism for the country, which is expected to reach 110 billion euros.

Following lengthy addresses by Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou and four other political party leaders, 172 deputies -- from ruling PASOK party and the small right-of-centre Popular Orthodox Rally (LA.OS) -- voted in favour of the legislation, whereas three PASOK deputies voted "present" and were expelled from the party's Parliamentary group immediately after the vote.

Voting against were 121 MPs -- from main opposition New Democracy (ND) party, the Communist Party (KKE) and the Radical Left Coalition (SYRIZA).
