Snippet:
When the Republic of Cyprus first took over the Council presidency in 2012, the European Union was struggling to contain the fallout of a financial crisis that was approaching its peak. The eurozone and its cohesion were under constant pressure, while countries such as Greece, Spain, Portugal and Ireland were in financial assistance programs.
