We already handed the draft of the document to Georgia in December,” Groysman told journalists after his meeting with Georgia’s Parliament Chairperson Irakli Kobakhidze in Kyiv.

Both officials stated that Georgia and Ukraine enjoy a very good partnership and the frequency of the visits of Georgian officials to Ukraine and vice versa indicate the existence of a positive dynamic.
Kobakhidze stated that none of his meetings in Ukraine mentioned Georgia’s former President Mikheil Saakashvili and his possible extradition to Georgia, as the issue was not a priority from a political point of view.
Kobakhidze said Saakashvili’s case needed to be settled by legal structures.
