Greece mourns the passing of former President of the Republic Kostis Stephanopoulos.
Kostis Stephanopoulos was a noble politician who throughout his life embodied political ethos and seriousness, serving Greece with modesty and responsibility, always setting the national interest and faith in the strengths of the homeland as a point of reference.
From the country’s highest state office, he was a democratic voice of Greece internationally. A voice of dignity and responsibility that spoke for and unified all Greek citizens.
Foreign Minister Nikos Kotzias and the whole of the political and civil leadership of the Ministry express their grief and their sincere condolences to his loved ones.
