AP - The president of Cyprus was admitted to a hospital in Brussels after a prolonged nosebleed that doctors said was caused by hypertension, an official said Thursday. Cyprus government spokesman Nicos Christodoulides said President Nicos Anastasiades received treatment and will rest for two days on the advice of doctors to avoid a recurrence of the nosebleed. Christodoulides said the president has already checked out of the hospital and is resting at a Brussels hotel where he will remain under close observation by a physician. Anastasiades, 68, was in Brussels to attend an EU leaders’ summit. Christodoulides said the president will now miss the summit and a meeting of European Peoples Party leaders. The president will be represented at both meetings by Greek Prime Minister Antonis Samaras. Copyright 2014 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
