On the deprivation of Mikhail Saakashvili Ukrainian citizenship

The Committee of Citizens of Ukraine is extremely concerned about the numerous reports of the media (with credible references to official government sources) about the deprivation of Mikhail Saakashvili Ukrainian citizenship.

The Committee of Citizens of Ukraine believes that the possible deprivation of Mikhail Saakashvili Ukrainian citizenship would be another link in the chain of evidence of the unwillingness of the Ukrainian authorities to act in deeds, and not to fight corruption in words and follow the generally accepted standards of fair and open political competition in the civilized world.

The Committee of Citizens of Ukraine also believes that such a disgraceful step would be a logical continuation of the course that was outlined in recent months in the actions of the totally corrupt government to curtail freedom of the press in Ukraine and fight against dissenters.
