EU envoy to Turkey resigns: EU delegation official

ANKARA
The European Union's top envoy to Turkey, Hansjörg Haber, has resigned, an official from the EU delegation in Ankara said on June 14, without giving any reason.

A source from the Delegation of the European Union to Turkey has confirmed Haber’s resignation and accuracy of the report by Hürriyet.
 
Haber has been currently in Ankara, the source, who requested anonymity while speaking with Hürriyet Daily News, said on June 14. 
 
“No further comments and no statement by Haber or the Delegation are on the agenda,” the source added.

Haber had criticized Turkey's handling of a landmark deal with the EU on migration, and was last month summoned to the Turkish foreign ministry over his comments.
