Kathmandu: The Embassy of Israel organized a special program in Kathmandu on Thursday to celebrate Israel’s 75th Independence Day.
The program was participated by Vice-President Ram Sahaya Prasad Yadav as the chief guest, Foreign Affairs Minister NP Saud as a special guest, government ministers and officials, and other dignitaries from various walks of life.
Welcoming the guests, the Ambassador of Israel to Nepal said, “Israel and Nepal share common values and challenges. As both are small countries, we must always build bridges of good relations with similar countries. Nepal and Israel were and will always remain close friends.”
Prime Minister of Israel offered his congratulations in a video message: “75 years ago, we emerged from the Holocaust… today, Israel is a rising power in the world… We have become an example of how you build something seemingly from nothing. We do more with less… We’ve built this, based on the age-old dream that we never gave up to return to our homeland; to rebuild our national life, to be able to defend ourselves, to be able to create and forge a future of peace.”
In a video message, the Minister for Foreign Affairs of Israel said, “Even when things seem difficult and impossible, think about what we have managed to build and accomplish in just 75 years of Independence. Anything is possible, with a little faith.”
