"The Georgian side expressed hope that the Ukrainian side would properly assess this fact and that both sides will make efforts to further develop the relations," the ministry said.
According to the statement, the Georgian Foreign Minister had a conversation with his Ukrainian counterpart, Dmytro Kuleba, on this subject. Kuleba, according to the Georgian Foreign Ministry, "expressed concern about the incident and promised to clarify the situation."
Yesterday, July 9, Saakashvili, the third president of Georgia and the current chairman of the Executive Reforms Committee under the President of Ukraine, called the Georgian government "illegitimate."
"I believe that the Georgian government is completely illegitimate. I will never recognize its legitimacy and I will never recognize the legitimacy of the situation that has now developed in Georgia," Saakashvili said in a video address.
These are not the first Ukraine-Georgia tensions over Saakashvili's statements.
