Med island state (6)

I believe the answer is:

cyprus

(Other definitions for cyprus that I've seen before include "Mediterranean country, capital Nicosia" , "Mediterranean island of Aphrodite" , "Mediterranean island country" , "Island - legendary home of Aphrodite" , "Divided Mediterranean island" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
