EU commission denies Juncker resignation rumour
By EUobserver
European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker will "complete his term with much energy and determination", commission spokesman Alexander Winterstein said Monday after an article in Italian daily La Reppubblica said he was about to resign. Last week, Juncker, who was appointed in 2014, said he would not seek a second term in 2019 because he wants to "remain a free man".
