For us, the Hellenism of Cyprus, Karolos Papoulias was consciously a constant friend, co-responder and supporter of the struggles for the vindication and reunification of our country, noted the President of the Republic Nicos Anastasiades in his condolence message in the electronic book of condolences opened by the Embassy of Greece in Nicosia.
In his message, President Anastasiades said that "the whole of Hellenism bids farewell to a special personality, a great man. Karolos Papoulias, a man of rare ethos, wise, rational and of great kindness, served Greece for decades, honouring it with high acts of exemplary loyalty."
These characteristics, together with his abilities, consistency, perseverance and unfailing dedication to duty, he notes, distinguished him in all the positions he assumed and subsequently sealed with his invaluable contribution.
"For us, the Hellenism of Cyprus, he was consciously a constant friend, co-sponsor and supporter of the struggles for the vindication and reunification of our country", it says.
"Feeling deeply grateful to him, his legacy as a true patriot and tireless defender of democracy and peace will guide our footsteps on his path in fulfilling our own debt to Hellenism," it concludes.
