By KYIV. Dec 20 (Interfax-Ukraine) – President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky called on the Georgian authorities to transfer former President of Georgia Mikheil Saakashvili to a foreign clinic.
"Apparently, everyone could see the state of Mikheil Saakashvili now, the state of his health. Therefore, I appeal to the people of Georgia, to the authorities of Georgia – you need to show mercy, especially in the pre-Christmas time," he said in a video statement on Monday.
According to Zelensky, "what is happening with Mikhail is a mockery. This does not suit Georgia. This needs to be stopped."
"Please make a decision that can save his life. Transfer Mikheil Saakashvili to one of the clinics in Ukraine, another European country, America," Zelensky said.
