Invitation wanted in Georgia's ex-President Mikhail Saakashvili to work in Ukraine in the form of the head of Odessa region was perceived As a slap in the face to the people of Georgia, said the former speaker of the Georgian Parliament, leader of opposition party "Democratic movement - United Georgia" Nino Burjanadze, who is visiting the Russian capital.

"As if I did not, when the former leader of a sovereign country agrees to be Governor even if a very important And respected area of a respected country, it is already an insult to his people. I did this precedent, I honestly do not know. On the reverse side, in the flesh And I very the majority in Georgia these actions (the President of Ukraine Petro) Poroshenko took it As simply a slap And the government of Georgia And the Georgian people, because it is not called friendship, when in Georgia are looking for, blaming you, and you appoint such a person in a high position And present it As a model or, I don't know the father of democracy, " Burjanadze said in an interview to a TV channel.

But, on the reverse side, she pointed out, if it would be of benefit to Ukraine And the Ukrainian people, about the resentment she not only began to speak.

"But I'm pretty sure Ukraine it will be very expensive, that is, to repeat the same mistakes that we, Georgians, have made, And also in relations With Russia, And also in its relations of our country in the 1st place. And show Saakashvili's chief Advisor on business - this is a big mistake.
