⚡️Ukraine authorities reject Georgian Dream’s allegations of 'special operation'

Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Oleg Nikolenko, has criticised allegations by Georgia's ruling party that Ukraine's government was involved in Georgian ex-President Mikheil Saakashvili’s return to Georgia.

On Tuesday night, Nikolenko described the accusation as an attempt to avoid ‘responsibility for gross violations of human rights in Georgia’, and expressed disappointment that Georgian authorities were using the war in Ukraine to achieve 'narrow domestic political goals’.

He also reiterated President Zelensky’s call earlier that day to transfer Mikheil Saakashvili to a hospital outside of Georgia for treatment.

Soon after Zelensky’s appeal, Georgian Dream chair Irakli Kobakhidze and the party’s parliamentary leader Mamuka Mdinaradze accused the Ukrainian government of 'sending Saakashvili to Georgia' and attempting to 'involve Georgia in war'.

The court hearings deliberating Saakashvili's appeal for treatment outside of Georgia is expected to resume tomorrow.
