The Netherlands (NTR) have announced they will not take part in the 2017 event even if a replacement host is found. Slovenia is still going to hold their national final to select an entry, regardless of whether the event ends up taking place.

Slovakia withdrawing when the contest is held in the Czech Republic? I really hope they are doing that just to save some money for participation in Eurovision 2018, or else xslap

There will ultimately be just 8 countries taking part, meaning Albania has withdrawn. Previously 10 countries were needed for the event to take place.
