Urmas Reinsalu, the foreign minister of Estonia on Tuesday tweeted his country was ready to ensure medical expertise”to treat” currently imprisoned former president of Georgia Mikheil Saakashvili. 

“We are concerned over the health of the former President of Georgia Mikheil Saakashvili and call for an opportunity for him to receive treatment abroad. Estonia is ready to provide medical expertise to help treat him. This step is also important for reducing polarisation in society”, the foreign official said.
