The information released by the ex-president as if the Georgian officers are ready to leave the armed forces and continue service in other country is ungrounded. There was not any such case in the army.
According to our information, several Georgian citizens staying in Ukraine served in the GAF a couple of years ago and at the present moment are not enlisted in the army.
Georgian officers represent the distinguished part of our society. In return for receiving foreign citizenship, they will not cease defending the motherland and its people. At a time when Ministry of Defence declares its course towards NATO integration as irreversible and high-level meetings are ongoing, ex-president tries to mislead the GAF personnel and the public. The statement of former Supreme-Commander-in-Chief is irresponsible and directed against his own country and state institutions.
