However, the country’s Interior Ministry denied his words.
Former Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili said on Friday that he arrived at his homeland eight years after his departure.
“Good morning Georgia. I am already in Georgia after eight years”, he wrote on his Facebook page.
The politician also posted a video on Facebook, in which he claims to have arrived in Batumi.
“This is my Batumi. <…> There was supposed to be my Batumi American Technological University, which was destroyed. Today we would already have a vaccine, and also covid would not kill so many people. I missed this place very much. Today my dream has come true”.
At the same time, the Georgian Interior Ministry told TASS correspondent that Saakashvili did not cross the state border. So far, there have been no official comments from the Georgian authorities and Saakashvili’s United National Movement party
