I express my condolences to all of his relatives and close persons". Following, George Papandreou the leader of the opposition at that time and a former prime minister of Greece stated: "Miltos Sachtouris was one of the greatest Poets of Modern Greece. He served the Greek letters with loyalty, elegance and moral.

I express my sincere condolences to all his relatives and friends".
