Lukashenko criticized the Georgian authorities for their attitude towards Mikheil Saakashvili.
It’s rude to go so far with a former president. This is how Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko addressed former Georgian colleague Mikhail Saakashvili. It doesn’t look good from the point of view that it was the president after all. Therefore, to come to such a degree as it turns out now is simply indecent», - said Lukashenko
in Minsk at a meeting with the President of the self-proclaimed Republic of Abkhazia Aslan Bzhania. Lukashenko noted that he is «observing the situation» related to Mikhail Saakashvili’s condition.
It is noteworthy that Belarus has not recognized the independence of Abkhazia and South Ossetia, which are effectively controlled by Moscow. Minsk considers these territories to be Georgian.
On the eve of the protest rally, supporters of Mikheil Saakashvili went out at the government chancellery in Tbilisi. They again demanded that the ex-president be released and released for treatment abroad. The Georgian authorities have been criticized many times by the leaders of many states for the arrest of Saakashvili.
