Donald Tusk invites Mikheil Saakashvili to the Rotterdam Congress and asks him to hold a speech | Response from the third president

The leader of the European People's Party, Donald Tusk, asks Georgia's third president Mikheil Saakashvili to address the party congress in Rotterdam. This was stated in a letter sent to the third president by his associate in prison, Eka Kherkheulidze.

Mikheil Saakashvili responded to Donald Tusk as follows:

"Today I received a letter from Donald Tusk. On behalf of the biggest party in Europe, the People's Party, which has the most influence in EU structures at all levels. He invites me to a convention in Rotterdam at the end of May. They offer me to attend and hold a speech.

I don't recall any other precedent of a jailed politician being so demonstratively invited. It means that they don't forget not only Ukraine, but also Georgia and me in the context of both countries. This is a great honor for me.

I do not know if my health will allow me to attend this congress and if the Georgian government will allow me to do so, but I want to thank Europe for such great moral support," Mikheil Saakashvili wrote.
