Normalcy Restored: Cyprus to Host All Scheduled EU Informal Councils
Cyprus is set to host all EU informal councils as planned between April and June, following earlier disruptions due to a drone strike on a British base. The attack, linked to Iran-backed Hezbollah, led to cancellations, but normalcy has been restored, according to Energy Minister Michael Damianos.

In a recent announcement, Cyprus Energy Minister Michael Damianos confirmed that all EU informal councils are scheduled to take place in Cyprus between April and June, as initially planned.
This decision comes after the island nation, currently holding the EU presidency, had to move its March meetings online or postpone them due to a drone attack at a British air base amid the ongoing Iran crisis.
The attack, suspected to have been executed by an Iranian-made Shahed drone launched by Hezbollah, had initially raised concerns. However, Damianos assured that normal operations have resumed, ensuring all planned business activities can proceed without further interruptions.
