The works of the 2003 European Union Summit Meeting will be held in Chalkidiki, and the Foreign Ministry is studying which hotel complexes will host the Summit, since the hotel must accommodate 5,000 people.
Chalkidiki was chosen for security reasons, when it was decided that the city of Thessaloniki, and especially the facilities of the TIF, does not offer complete security conditions, due to the proximity of the TIF to the Aristotle University and the Macedonia University. At the same time the government does not wish for conditions which would result in ?deadening? the city of Thessaloniki.
