Mikhail Saakashvili

Mikhail Saakashvili is one of the most talked about high-ranking officials in the world, the former president of Georgia, the leader of the Rose Revolution. A new surge of interest in the personality of Mikhail Nikolozovich happened after his appearance in Ukraine in 2015, where he became a politician, having served as an adviser to the President of Ukraine, head of the Advisory International Council for Reform and Chairman of the Odessa Regional State Administration.

Saakashvili Mikhail Nikolozovich was born on December 21, 1967 in Tbilisi in an intelligent Georgian family. Later, the guy was proud of the fact that he was born on the same day with the famous compatriot Iosif Dzhugashvili.

Nikoloz Saakashvili's father was a physician, and Giuli Alasania's mother was a professor-historian. The parents divorced almost immediately after the birth of their son. The future politician was brought up by his stepfather Zurab Kometiani, who heads the scientific council of the Beritashvili Institute of Physiology.

The future politician showed his leadership qualities even in his school years and in the senior grades became a member of the Komsomol committee, where he served as deputy secretary. In addition to school sciences, he was fond of basketball, swimming, music and foreign languages.

A few days ago, I celebrated my 52nd birthday with my mother Giyuli at the Teatro alla Scala in Milan at the Tosca opera, where exactly at 12 Kyiv time we drank a glass of champagne in the lobby.

In 1984, Mikhail became a student at the Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, choosing for himself the Faculty of International Law. Saakashvili managed to graduate from the university only in 1992, after completing military service in the border troops of the KGB of the USSR.

The career of the young graduate developed rapidly: for 2 years he worked abroad - in Norway and the USA, where he met the chairman of the "Union of Citizens of Georgia" Zurab Zhvania, after which Mikhail's biography changed and got a political direction.

The first years of Saakashvili's activities in his homeland were associated with the party "Union of Citizens of Georgia", then Mikhail headed the Ministry of Justice of Georgia. Even then, the politician declared his oppositional views towards the government of Eduard Shevardnadze. And in 2003, together with his associates from the People's Movement, the future president became a participant in the Rose Revolution, which led to the resignation of the previous state apparatus.

New presidential elections in Georgia took place in January 2004: Mikheil Saakashvili won them with 96% of the vote.

The first political steps of Saakashvili in his new post were the subordination of Tbilisi to the Ajarian Autonomy, the Kodori Gorge, the reduction of corruption, and the organization of a dialogue with representatives of the NATO alliance. But the president's policy began to displease the country's citizens, despite the obvious changes. Nevertheless, in 2008, at the early presidential elections, Saakashvili won more than 53% of the vote and again won the presidential race.

Mikhail began a new period of his political career with a 5-day Georgian-Ossetian conflict. The Georgian troops failed to subjugate Tskhinvali - Russian peacekeepers intervened. These events led to the fact that Georgia withdrew from the CIS. At this time, photos and videos appeared discrediting the politician, which showed Saakashvili chewing on his tie. The footage went viral on Instagram and other social networks.

In 2012, the presidential party lost the parliamentary race, and the opposition demanded an additional investigation into the death of former Prime Minister Zurab Zhvania, in which Saakashvili was involved. The head of Georgia had to leave for the capital of the Netherlands before the termination of his presidential powers. The international wanted list did not prevent the politician from starting everything from scratch in Ukraine, where Saakashvili received the post of adviser to President Petro Poroshenko, and later became the governor of the Odessa region and changed his citizenship to Ukrainian.

However, in the new place, Mikhail Nikolozovich could not refrain from conflicts. A protracted quarrel began between him and the Minister of Internal Affairs Arsen Avakov, who was supported by Arseniy Yatsenyuk. Mikheil Saakashvili then stated on his Facebook page that he “regrets that he called Yatsenyuk a thief, but even more regrets that this is true”. In 2016, amid litigation over military censorship violations, Saakashvili resigned. In 2018, he was expelled from the country and stripped of his Ukrainian citizenship. Saakashvili moved to Europe, where he took up lecturing.

The personal life of Mikhail Saakashvili is interesting to the public against the background of his scandalous political activities. He is known to be married to a Dutch national, Sandra Roelofs, who is a former Red Cross employee.

The wife has always been the spouse's right hand and helped to strengthen his image. They say she helped her husband a lot in the presidential campaign: Sandra Roelofs, who is called the Dutch rose, asked the people to see her as her "adopted daughter" and even sang Georgian songs.

The Saakashvili family has two children - sons Eduard, born in 1995 and Nikoloz, born in 2005.

It is noteworthy that already during the management of Georgia, Mikhail Saakashvili was friends with many high-ranking officials of Ukraine: he studied at the university with Petro Poroshenko, and Viktor Yushchenko baptized his youngest son Nikoloz.

Information about the politician's love affairs repeatedly appeared in the media: it was said that not a single woman could resist his onslaught. His favorites were the Minister of Economy Veronica Kobalia, the 20-year-old Ossetian beauty Alana Gagloeva, pop performers Sopho Nizharadze and Nina Tskrilashvili, Nino Kalandadze and Khatune Kalmakhelidze, who at different times were awarded various positions in the Cabinet of Ministers. But there was no official evidence of these connections.

In addition to politics, Saakashvili is fond of mountaineering, parachuting and alpine skiing, and also regularly participates in amateur football matches among political associates. The growth of Mikhail Nikolozovich is very impressive and almost reaches 2 meters (195 cm) with a weight of 87 kg.

In the spring of 2019, Saakashvili gave a 2-hour interview to Ukrainian journalist Dmitry Gordon. Communication was carried out via Skype, Mikhail was at that time in the United States. The politician said that he was ready to return to Ukraine again, for which he was saving his Ukrainian passport.
