I still have to contribute to the final liberation of Ukraine, and then I am going to build a Piazza in Sokhumi, wrote Mikheil Saakashvili on his Facebook page.

“Friends, the last days of chaos and violence have begun in Russia, and Georgia, which [Bidzina] Ivanishvili has largely turned into a Russian clan, has taken exactly this path.

The power in Georgia has been seized by a criminal group, which will surely turn to large-scale violence. What you saw yesterday is just the beginning. Now the main thing is not to be afraid!

I was not afraid to come here. However, I knew for sure that I could get killed.

Don’t be afraid, civil society and politicians should learn to protect themselves!

Now is not the time to divide the seats in the election lists - I am very surprised to see this.

Parallel to the events of Russia and Ukraine ahead (especially parallel to the success of Ukraine), the most difficult period awaits us, to pass through which we need to consolidate and introduce new elements, which were not relevant in previous years.

They stole our future and now they want to take away our present. We must tell Ivanishvili and his patrons in Russia that they cannot defeat us. You cannot bully us, we are much more.

Russia is failing and we have Abkhazia to liberate.

I still have to contribute to the final liberation of Ukraine, and then I am going to build a Piazza in Sokhumi”, - writes the former president.
