Georgia. Mikheil Saakashvili is in critical condition in a prison hospital

Saakashvili has been in a prison hospital in the country’s capital since November 8. However, he refused treatment there, arguing that he had been transferred by deception. According to the ex-president, this is aimed at “physically destroying it on orders from Putin.”

On October 1, Saakashvili returned to Georgia – he said – to rally his supporters for the local elections. On the same day, he was arrested and imprisoned, and the authorities declared that he could not count on amnesty or extradition to Ukraine.
