“The Greek Prime Minister Antonis Samaras said this week that the country is willing to sell off its uninhabited islands, telling French newspaper Le Monde that it is the only way to save Greece. The prime minister was quoted that Greece would still retain national sovereignty over any islands sold to private investors, ‘on condition that it doesn’t pose a national security problem.’ The country possesses about 6,000 tiny islands in the Mediterranean Sea, but only about 227 are actually inhabited.”
