		</div><p>Romanian President Klaus Iohannis has announced his resignation amid mounting pressure from populist opposition groups.</p>
<p>The move comes two months after a top court annulled a presidential election in the European Union country.</p>
<p>“To spare Romania from this crisis, I am resigning as president of Romania,” Mr Iohannis said in an emotional address on Monday, adding that he will leave office on February 12.</p>
<p>The 65-year-old has held the presidential role since 2014 and served the maximum of two five-year terms.</p>
<p>But his presidency was extended in December after the Constitutional Court cancelled the presidential race two days before a December 8 run-off.</p>
<p>That came after the far-right populist Calin Georgescu unexpectedly won the first round, after which allegations emerged of Russian interference and electoral violations.</p>
