The third president of Georgia, Mikheil Saakashvili, publishes a letter and thanks the patriarch, Ilia II, for the meeting with the former first lady and her son.
Mikheil Saakashvili says that during the last year he has become stronger, he had a lot of time and opportunity to pray.
The third president writes that liberty will win.
"Today is a wonderful Christmas holiday. I am grateful to His Holiness that, despite being very tired, he met Sandra and Nicholas very warmly and talked for a long time.
I want to answer those who somehow connected "spiritual reality" with the prison, they missed the word "spiritual".
During the last year, I really got stronger spiritually, for the first time I visited many times, went to confession, underwent anointing, and most importantly, I had a lot of time and opportunity to pray.
As for the prison, the main slogan of the Ukrainian fighters is freedom or death, so freedom will win.
Merry Christmas to everyone," writes Mikheil Saakashvili.
