Cyprus and Israel have embarked in a new era of partnership, said the President of Cyprus, Nicos Anastasiades, receiving an Honorary Doctorate from IDC Herzliya University of Israel.

 
The President said that  he considered the honour awarded to him as an honour to the country and people that he represents and as the genuine recognition and appreciation of the long-standing struggles of Cypriot Hellenism for freedom and justice.
 


The President said that the quest of Cypriots and Jews for survival and self – determination was marked by the passage of more than 53,000 holocaust survivors from the British camps in Cyprus after the Second World War.
