«At some point I wanted to do other things. Not to leave Manus… but to do some things. There was an atmosphere…there’s no need to mention it now. I decided to do just that – to leave – and that’s where our relationship ended. We didn’t speak again until he died. But there is no doubt about remorse. no. In conclusion, it was about me and Manu. It is not necessary for everyone to know the details. I do not regret or ask for forgiveness. I once said I forgave him, which is why I speak today with so much love and admiration for him. The people I worked with, who I did what I did with, were absolutely amazing people. They weren’t people you didn’t know or had different samples». This is what Vassilis Lekas ​​said and added:

“Dionysus Savopoulos had his own way of dealing with Theodorakis and Hatzidakis, he did that from time to time, but we were a family and I was someone who was there. It was nice that it happened. It was nice that we also quarreled with Manos. But the moment I quarreled seriously “With him, no, I didn’t regret it. I don’t regret it. It’s me and Manos in this event and no one else.”

Vassilis Lekas ​​continued: “I did not go to his funeral. Of course I was sad too, unfortunately. Then one of my friends called me and said, “Manus is gone.” And I will tell you the first sentence that came to me instinctively at that time: “Now, the defenses are down. A society that had a spiritual support, and a large number of them came out of it.”»».
