Greece plans to sell diplomatic offices and houses in cities from London to Belgrade as the government pursues an asset sale plan key to getting further international aid, two people with knowledge of the matter said.
The state’s list of assets for sale, previously restricted to domestic real estate, will now include the Greek consul’s residence in the U.K.’s second-most expensive borough as well as office buildings in Brussels and Belgrade, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the matter is private. In addition, a former royal palace near Athens may be sold or leased, they said.
