That's what he is I just wrote on my page.
“I apologize for the inaccuracy in my previous post about the appointment of Mikheil Saakashvili.
The Cabinet of Ministers did make a decision on Saakashvili, but this decision was not about the appointment, but about the recommendation to the President of Ukraine to appoint Mikheil Saakashvili as governor of the Odessa region.
The final decision rests with the President of Ukraine, as provided for by the Constitution!!!
I really hope that the President will support the Government’s proposal and appoint Mikheil Saakashvili to this responsible post!!!”, writes the Minister of Ecology.
Thank you!
