We wish to remain even in a one-sided friendship mode with the Ukrainian government, because this country is currently in a state of war, said the Chairman of the Georgian Dream, while commenting the decision of the President of Ukraine who called the Georgian Ambassador to Ukraine to leave the country in order to hold consultations with the Georgian authorities.

“As for yesterday’s step of the President of Ukraine, which was related to Mikheil Saakashvili, I don’t want to go deep into this topic for the simple reason that the topic concerns the President of a country that is in a state of war.

But in general, this position of the Government is, of course, offensive to us. It was insulting in itself that, as our opponents themselves admitted, specific high-ranking officials of the Ukrainian government were involved in sending Saakashvili to Georgia, and today the same Government demands Saakashvili"s return to Ukraine.

This, of course, contains signs of insult. But our desire is to remain even in a one-sided friendship mode with the Ukrainian government, because this country is currently in a state of war”, - said Irakli Kobakhidze.
