On the occasion of Israel’s 74th Independence Day, country’s Ambassador to India Naor Gilon appreciated the visit of External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar at the celebration just after his arrival from Europe tour and said it is a token of friendship between the two countries.

“Our (India-Israel) relations are really outstanding. We have wonderful formal relations between our countries, really very wide in all fields and we've wonderful people-to-people relations between our old civilisations,” said Naor Gilon.

“I think the testimony for that was the fact that EAM came here, just landed from Europe, and came to honour us. We really appreciate it, I think it's a token of friendship between our countries,” added the Envoy.

On Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett's visit to India, Gilon said, "We are hoping to have him soon. It is on the plan, assuming that the political situation in Israel will enable it. I hope it will happen sooner rather than later."
