Putin benefits from any confrontation, anywhere. This opinion was expressed by a military expert, Oleg Zhdanov, on the air of UKRLife TV.

Ex-President of Georgia Mikheil Saakashvili, who is now on trial in his homeland, was poisoned. This was stated on December 22, by the MP of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, Yelizaveta Yasko, who is in close relations with Saakashvili.

"We have evidence that he was poisoned, but we do not have evidence of when and where. We know that much is hidden, and it is almost impossible to obtain any data or information under the current circumstances. However, that examination, which was made with the participation of independent foreign experts, showed serious results," Yasko said.

Oleg Zhdanov is convinced that in the near future Russia will be able to persuade Georgia to send Russians troops to Armenia so that Armenia becomes more manageable.

"In my opinion, Russia has already dealt with Georgia. Almost. It seems to me that the special operation with Mikheil Saakashvili completely discredits Georgia in the eyes of the West.

If you believe in the version that this is a special operation of Russian special services to poison him, and, God save him, he will die in prison, then Georgia, as a democratic country, will be completely discredited. With all your undertakings.

And then the Georgian leadership will have no chance of rapprochement with the West. They will have one option - for rapprochement with the Russian Federation. In addition, 20% of Georgia is occupied by Russian troops, and there is leverage. In addition, I know that in Abkhazia, they continue to "bite off" village after village. The last movement of Russian troops was recorded this summer. This is an instrument of pressure on the Georgian leadership," said Zhdanov.
