He practiced popular politics without populism. ‘He left his books a legacy for Patriotism, Social Democracy, Modernism, Europe. He taught ethos with his lifestyle and behavior. Master for us who worked with him. Big! His eternal memory,” he adds. Dimitris Avramopoulos “We honor and respect a public man and political leader with a recognized offer to the country and society. Costas Simitis served his country with dedication and responsibility, devoting his life to its progress and well-being,” says the ND MP and former mayor of Athens, Dimitris Avramopoulos. “As Prime Minister, he stood firm in the face of difficult challenges and promoted policies that changed the lives of thousands of citizens such as Greece’s entry into the euro area and Cyprus into the European Union, and in the organisation of the 2004 Olympic Games, where as Mayor of Athens we co-operated lovingly and heartily. His contribution to the public debate, with seriousness and responsibility and his insistence on defending democracy are elements that characterized him. In these difficult times, I express my sincere condolences to his family and political party. His loss is accompanied by the memory and recognition of his work,” Mr Avramopoulos notes in his statement.
