Antsukhelidze is a hero who sacrificed himself for his homeland, Saakashvili later came out and connected Antsukhelidze's heroism to himself, saying shameful words, as if he was being forced to curse Saakashvili or something like that, - Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze told journalists in Mukhatgverdi.
According to the head of government, Antsukhelidze is a national hero, but this cannot cover up the betrayal that Saakashvili committed.
"Antsukhelidze is a hero who sacrificed himself for his homeland. Later, Saakashvili came out and connected Antsukhelidze's heroism to himself. He said shameful words, Saakashvili said that they were forcing Antsukhelidze to curse Saakashvili or something like that. It was about the flag, and Saakashvili, this shameful dirty foreign agent, said it was about him. Antsukhelidze is, of course, a national hero, but this can in no way cover up the betrayal that Saakashvili committed. Why do you want to use Antsukhelidze's heroism to cover up the betrayal committed by the leader of your party? You can't cover it up, because Antsukhelidze's heroism is heroism for his own homeland," the Prime Minister said.
