The opposition United National Movement (UNM) leader Nika Melia thanked ex-Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili, “who has been on a hunger strike for 30 days in a cell alone.”
At a protest rally at the Georgian Parliament, Melia addressed Saakashvili, saying he knows what he feels now.
“Many enemies or so-called friends tried to sow the seeds of the non-existent disagreement between us, but when I saw these attempts, I felt even more motivated to stand by you and spare no effort for you to be free,” Melia said.
