Croatian Prime Minister Ivo Sanader makes the surprise decision to resign and withdraw from politics.
The announcement came as a surprise. Croatian media had speculated recently that Mr Sanader, 56, would run for president next year.
The leader of the conservative Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ), Mr Sanader had been prime minister since 2003.
But he told reporters at a news conference in the capital, Zagreb: "My job has been done, my political life ends now."
He said he was not resigning because of illness or to take up a post at the European Union.
Mr Sanader stressed that he "did not make these decisions easily" but after "deep consideration".
"I have always said that politics is not an end in itself."
