Named the reasons for the refusal to pardon Saakashvili in Georgia
[ad_1]
Georgian President Salome Zurabishvili refuses to pardon Mikheil Saakashvili because the Georgian people believe that he “should pay for the crimes” that were committed during his leadership of the country.
She stated that she was responsible to the Georgian people.
“As president, I have to take into account how the Georgian people feel. The Georgian people survived 9 years of the Saakashvili regime, which left many victims. And this is an issue that has polarized and continues to polarize the population of Georgia,” she said.
“It’s not that the Georgian people believe that Saakashvili is not to blame. They may not agree that he may not be treated the way a president should be,” the Georgian president said, adding that the Georgian people are “very humane and tolerant.”
“But the feeling of the population is that he must pay for some of the crimes that were committed during his regime – perhaps not by him, but under his leadership,” Zurabishvili said.
Earlier it was reported that the deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Yelizaveta Yasko gave birth to former Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili, who is in prison at home.
