An amendment introducing a blanket ban on any form of ownership or participation of Greek politicians in firms based abroad was passed by the Hellenic Parliament with 190 votes in favour on Wednesday.
Votes in favour were given by ruling coalition MPs of SYRIZA and the Independent Greeks (ANEL), the Democratic Coalition, Potami, the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) and Golden Dawn, while the seven Union of Centrists MPs abstained.
Only 197 MPs voted after main opposition New Democracy walked out of the debate in Parliament.
