Mikheil Saakashvili expressed confidence in his release

Ex-president of Georgia Mikheil Saakashvili, while imprisoned in a clinic, wrote on the social network: “False accusations have been brought against me. I am sure that the Georgian people will release me.” According to the politician, the European Parliament, many countries and presidents demand his release. “Not for a minute do I put up with this unfair, Putin's conclusion! I intend to fight for freedom to the end, I hope for you,” Saakashvili said.

Mikheil Saakashvili has been treated at the Vivamed civilian clinic since May 2022. His health deteriorated after a 50-day hunger strike, which he declared after his arrest on October 1, 2021. Relatives of the ex-president and politicians from different countries have repeatedly asked the Georgian authorities to transfer him abroad for treatment.
