Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras has made changes to his government, two days after suffering a widespread party rebellion over an austerity bill that he had to push through Parliament as part of creditor requirements to start talks on a third bailout. Tsipras removed two ministers who had voted against the government line, according to AP. He replaced Energy Minister Panagiotis Lafazanis with former labor minister, Panos Skourletis, while Trifon Alexiadis becomes the new alternate finance minister following Nadia Valavani's resignation in the run-up to the vote earlier this week. Friday's reshuffle was limited, with nine changes overall.
