Vasilis Leventis has died at the age of 75. His son announced his death.

A post by Vasilis Leventis’s son:

I never expected this moment to come so soon.
At just 75 years old.
It is with great sorrow that I say goodbye to my father today.
The man who raised me, supported me at every step of my life, and taught me—through his example—what dignity, perseverance, patience, consistency, and courage mean.
To many, you were the President.
To me, you were simply my father.
I was not your biological child.

But you never made me feel like I was anything less than your son.
And today, looking back on a whole lifetime, I realize that blood may create a bond.
But it’s love, care, and presence that make a father.
And you were my father.

Thank you for raising me as your own child.
Thank you for everything you taught me—not just with your words, but with the way you lived your life.
Your greatest legacy isn’t what you accomplished.
It’s the way you lived.
The way you fought.
The way you stayed true to your principles.
Safe travels, Father.
I will never forget you.
