Mikheil Saakashvili: "Winning the War Will Take Ukraine Ten Months"
According to former Georgian leader Mikheil Saakashvili, under the most pessimistic scenario, Ukraine will need ten months to win the war. In his social media post, he mentioned that the Ukrainian military leadership is not in a rush, which is why they do not make a multitude of mistakes on the battlefield.
"We have already destroyed 1,800 tanks on the front lines of Ukraine. We eliminate an average of five tanks per day," he added. According to him, 3000–3500 tanks must be destroyed in order to completely eliminate their potential. "At this rate, it will take between 240 and 300 days to complete," stated the former Georgian president.
Earlier, Caucasus Watch reported that ex-Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili has left the United National Movement and Georgian politics. His lawyer, Valeri Gelbakhiani, said that the former president's political choices are exhausted and that his primary objective is to preserve his life. Previously, Mikheil Saakashvili told his lawyer that he went to Georgia to show he wasn't a coward and wasn't trying to get away from the law.
