The 85th Thessaloniki International Fair (TIF) will be held on September 11-19, honoring Greece instead of France, the organizers announced on Thursday.
The coronavirus pandemic cannot allow for the participation of France as the honored country, they added.
When are INDOOR restaurants allowed to open?
OK, now we know when brothels are open again but still not when we can do unrestricted yachting and sail between islands.
Nice to see the governments priorities.
It seems that all the hedonistic pleasures in life receive priority. Because that is where the money is for people connected to politicians? We saw the same thing in Serbia.
