Israeli PM set to visit

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will be visiting Cyprus soon, a government statement said on Tuesday.
The visit was agreed during an afternoon telephone call between President Nicos Anastasiades and Netanyahu, government spokesman Nicos Christodoulides said.
The two leaders talked about energy and the potential of cooperation between the two countries but also discussed political developments in the Eastern Mediterranean region and Iraq.
Netanyahu agreed to visit the island as soon as possible, Christodoulides said. The exact date will be announced after the visit was arranged by the two countries’ foreign ministries.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
