Prime Minister Antonis Samaras laid a wreath by the coffin of the former President of the Cyprus Republic Glafcos Clerides, who died at age 94, and was buried in Nicosia yesterday. "Hellenism honours Glafcos Clerides, a fine political man, who indissolubly linked his name with recent Cypriot history," Samaras noted at the end of the funeral, adding that he was a person who "courageously faced all problems and created prospects." Samaras spoke highly of Clerides, saying "he had the gift of insight and the virtue of realism." He concluded that Cyprus has always been a responsibility and obligation of Greece.

The Greek premier was accompanied by government Vice-President and Foreign Minister Evangelos Venizelos, Parliament President Evangelos Meimarakis, Defence Minister Dimitris Avramopoulos, government spokesman Simos Kedikoglou and party leaders. Prior to the funeral, Samaras met with Cyprus President Nicos Anastasiades.
