According to Zelensky, he spoke with Garibashvili by phone and noted that the rights of a citizen of Ukraine Saakashvili “must be fully guaranteed in accordance with international standards.”
In Georgia, Saakashvili was sentenced in absentia to six years in prison. He was detained on October 1, 2021, when he returned to his homeland to take part in protests after eight years of emigration. While in prison, the ex-president went on a hunger strike. On November 11, he announced that he would stop it as soon as he was transferred from a prison hospital to a civilian one.
