MEP Cramon says now it's Saakashvili's turn to follow Elene Khoshtaria
European Parliament member Viola von Cramon is “relieved” to hear that Elene Khoshtaria stopped the hunger strike. She said, “Now it’s Mr Saakashvili’s turn to follow the example.”
“Georgian Government should urgently transfer the ex-president to the relevant health facility and opposition should remain peaceful,” MEP Cramon tweeted.
Today, Justice Minister Rati Bregadze has offered jailed Mikheil Saakashvili a transfer to Gori Military Hospital for treatment. He said the military hospital is well-equipped to treat Saakashvili, but the transfer requires his consent.
Following Bregadze’s offer, Droa leader Elene Khoshtaria stopped the hunger strike. She started the hunger strike on November 3 demanding Saakashvili’s transfer to a civilian clinic.
