The event was postponed to allow Turkish Tourism Minister Erkan Mumcu and Greek counterpart Demetris Avramopoulos to attend the funeral of Izmir Mayor Ahmet Piristina, who died on 15 June.
Do odlaganja je došlo kako bi turski ministar turizma Erkan Mumču i njegov grčki kolega Demetris Avramopulos bili u mogućnosti da prisustvuju sahrani gradonačelnika Izmira, Ahneta Piristine, koji je preminuo 15. juna.
