Giuli Alasania on Strasbourg Court decision: He has never been sure that the Strasbourg court would make a positive decision, I was more optimistic

According to the mother of the third president of Georgia, Giuli Alasania, Mikheil Saakashvili was not sure that the Strasbourg Court would make a positive decision on the application of the temporary measure.

According to Alasania, he expected that the European Court would allow the former president to continue his treatment abroad.

"I didn't like this decision, I was expecting a different decision, taking everything into account, first of all, because of his health condition. Statements by Volodymyr Zelensky, Maia Sandu and MEPs indicated that he should be transferred abroad for treatment. At this stage, nothing was taken into account. Strasbourg is one of the episodes, let's see how things will develop now.

He has never been sure that the Strasbourg court would make a positive decision. I was more optimistic," said Alasania.

As she mentioned while talking to journalists, Mikheil Saakashvili's health condition is still serious.

For information, according to the Minister of Justice Rati Bregadze, pursuant to the decision of the Strasbourg Court, former president Mikheil Saakashvili was refused to be transferred to Warsaw. According to him, at the same time, the state was not instructed to transfer Saakashvili to another treatment facility within the country.
