Mikheil Saakashvili appeals to Public Defender Levan Ioseliani to be Visited by Ombudsman Council

The third president of Georgia, Mikheil Saakashvili, appealed to the public defender, Levan Ioseliani, and asked him to be visited by the Ombudsman council.

According to Saakashvili, his health has worsened in recent days.

"In recent days, my health condition has worsened again. When I met with Public Defender Levan Ioseliani, we agreed that the council staffed by highly qualified specialists at his office would continue to work. I have been asking for the council's visit for several days now, as far as I know, they are ready.

I ask the public defender to facilitate this process, especially considering the fact that the government stubbornly does not allow EU doctors into the country, this council is particularly important," said Saakashvili.
