Germany parl't endorses extension of Greek bailout

BERLIN, Feb 27 (KUNA) -- Germany's parliament (Bundestag) on Friday gave thumbs up to a four-month extension of Greece's financial bailout with absolute majority.
542 MPs voted in favor of extending the aid program and 32 against. Further 13 MPs abstained.
The vote is seen as crucial because Germany, Europe's biggest economy, has been the main contributor to the Greek bailout. (end) ang.hs
