According to his statement, the Ukrainian citizen Mikheil Saakashvili is being killed by Russia at the hands of the Georgian government.
“We have repeatedly called on official Tbilisi to stop this mistreatment and agree to Saakashvili's return to Ukraine. Our partners, in coordination with Ukraine, came up with a number of solutions. I call on our partners not to ignore this situation, resolve it, and save this person. No government in Europe has the right to execute a person, life is a basic European value,” Zelensky wrote.
The third president of Georgia, currently imprisoned Mikheil Saakashvili, appeared at his trial today for the first time since February. He joined the session of the Tbilisi City Court on the so-called ‘’November Case’’ remotely from the Vivamed clinic. His health condition is serious.
