Prime Minister of Georgia Irakli Gharibashvili has released an open letter. According to Irakli Gharibashvili, Mikheil Saakashvili's psychological and mental condition before and after his imprisonment has changed radically.

"Dear friends, probably many of our fellow citizens think about what motivated Mikheil Saakashvili when he planned his provocative arrival in Georgia. The versions may be various. Some think that he was obsessed with the thirst for power, selfishness and jealousy of the other leaders of the United National Movement. Some think he came back with the intention of overthrowing the government and he was sure he would succeed. There is also a version that it was difficult for him to predict the consequences of his decision due to his heavy drug addiction.

Mikheil Saakashvili's psychological and mental condition before and after his imprisonment has changed radically. The National Movement is worried that their leader is in a difficult situation and demands his immediate release from prison. This situation of Saakashvili was taken seriously by the team, however, they do not know what to do. As for the above versions of Saakashvili's arrival. I consider it absurd that Mikheil Saakashvili deliberately went to prison and planned it in advance. If he had wanted this, he would not sneaked into the country as a thief and would not have violated the law. By doing so, he would intensify his own message relating to political imprisonment, while now that he has entered Georgia by committing a new crime, he has weakened this message. Blaming drugs for his illogical decision is also absurd I think.

No matter how addicted a person is, he always has enough time to refuse an illogical step. Therefore, the most logical version is that Saakashvili arrived in Georgia not with the intention of going to prison, but with a strong hope of overthrowing the government. I would also like to tell the public that Saakashvili's revolutionary intentions were doomed to failure in all cases”, reads the letter.

According to him, for years, the National Movement and its propaganda television stations have been trying to establish a false perception of a "collapsed state”. “In fact, instead of a "collapsed state", Saakashvili was met by a well-organized state system in Georgia. All this explains the radical change in Saakashvili's mental state before and after his imprisonment - he entered the prison with a smile on his face and now he has nothing to worry about but how to get out of prison," reads the open letter
