Germans want Greece to sell off their paradise Islands
Some right wing German politicians are suggesting that Greece should sell some of its islands to pay off the country's raising debt.
In an interview to German tabloid newspaper Bild, the MP's said:
"A bankrupt party must use everything he has to make money and serve his creditors. Greece owns buildings, companies and several uninhabited islands, which can now be used to repay debt.”
Another MP from a more radical party had this to say: "Greece must radically part with company shares and also sell property, for example uninhabited islands"
Other suggestions included selling historical monuments, government buildings, art works, and government owned land. Which no doubt the Germans would be willing to buy and use for their vacations...
This exchange of words is escalating and won't help calming tensions between Berlin and Athens over fears the Germans have that they would have to bail out Greece.
