Johannes Hahn has resigned as the European Commission's special envoy for Cyprus due to other commitments, as announced by the European Commission. His resignation was confirmed by a spokesman during a press briefing in Brussels, who also expressed gratitude for Hahn's contributions to the conciliation process. Ursula von der Leyen will decide on the next steps. Hahn was appointed in May 2025 following efforts by Cypriot leadership for EU engagement regarding the Cyprus problem, which has persisted since a 1974 coup. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
