Under the shadow of the latest developments in the Middle East and the widespread concern for further escalation in the wider region after Iran's attacks against Israel, the Summit of Mediterranean Member States of the European Union (MED9) will be held on Friday in Cyprus, with the participation of Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis.

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis sent a letter to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen  to bring to her attention the issue of Territorial Supply Constraints (TSCs) and restrictions, as part of efforts to further deepen the European Single Market in the politically key areas of protecting consumers and their income.

Germany’s Ursula von der Leyen secured European parliamentary approval on Tuesday to become the first female European Commission president after she won over socialists and liberals with her vision of a greener, fairer and rule-based Europe.
