The Greek government appears likely to call a confidence vote, following a rebellion among lawmakers from the ruling Syriza party over the country's new bailout deal, senior ministers said on Monday.
Energy Minister Panos Skourletis described such a parliamentary vote as "self-evident" following Friday's rebellion when almost a third of Syriza deputies abstained or voted against the agreement.
With Syriza's left wing showing little sign of returning to the party fold, Skourletis also raised the possibility of early elections should Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras lose a confidence motion.
