President Zourabichvili is less likely to pardon Saakashvili, Shalva Papuashvili says
According to the chairman of the Parliament of Georgia, Shalva Papuashvili, he does not expect that the President of Georgia, Salome Zourabichvili, will pardon the third president, Mikheil Saakashvili.
According to the Speaker of the Parliament, he knows Zourabichvili's position on this matter and does not see any reason to change his position.
As Papuashvili mentioned, everyone who is now trying to free Mikheil Saakashvili from prison in any way is trying to hinder the execution of justice in Girgvliani's case.
"I have no expectation of this [Saakashvili's pardon by Zourabichvili], because I know her position, which she has voiced many times, and I don't see any reason to change that position. She herself was, as she noted, a participant of the protest that was related to the Girgvliani case, and today the enforcement of justice is going to Girgvliani's case. Everyone who is now trying to free Mikheil Saakashvili from prison is trying to prevent justice in this case. As for [Saakashvili's] diagnosis, neither I, nor the president, nor anyone can decide that. This is the competence of the doctors and the court to discuss this matter, and you know that the court is going to discuss it and there will be an appropriate decision," Shalva Papuashvili said.
In addition, when asked by the journalist if the government intends to release the director of the Mtavari channel Nika Gvaramia and the third president of Georgia Mikheil Saakashvili, Shalva Papuashvili responded by saying that "no one can interfere in the justice process."
