Georgian ambassador to Ukraine quits post

Georgian Ambassador to Ukraine Teimuraz Sharashenidze quits his post, Front News Ukraine reports exclusively. 

 

Sharashenidze will take vacations starting today and will no longer return to the position. 

 

The ambassador faced problems following the appointment of Georgia’s wanted former president Mikheil Saakashvili as the head of the executive committee of the Ukrainian National Reforms Council back in May 2020, a year after Sharashenidze took the post. 

 

He was withdrawn from Ukraine ‘for explanations and to discuss detail’ shortly after and returned to his role only in April 2021, after almost a year, as Russian-Ukrainian relations got tense again and Russia threatened the country at its borders.
