Ashkenazi meets Cypriot FM as nations agree on travel deal for vaccinated citizens

Foreign Minister Gabi Ashkenazi meets visiting Cypriot counterpart Nikos Christodoulides.

He welcomes the agreement between the nations to allow coronavirus-vaccinated citizens of the two countries to travel between them without limitations.

The two also discussed various regional and bilateral issues, “including the decision of the International Crimical Court” that it has jurisdiction to investigate Israel for possible war crimes against Palestinians.

Ashkenazi says Israel rejects the decision, “which is legally wrong… rewards Palestinian terror and [the Palestinians’] rejection of a return to direct negotiations.”
