    Boria, come here! Prison only boosts support for political leaders and clearly has the opposite effect -  Mikheil Saakashvili

    "Boria, come here! Prison only boosts support for political leaders and clearly has the opposite effect. So, thank you for my political reincarnation!" — Georgia's third president, Mikheil Saakashvili, stated this in a letter

    posted on his Facebook page from prison. "Boria, come here!

    In your beloved Brazil, President Lula was imprisoned by his successor, Bolsonaro, on highly dubious charges. Lula managed to secure early release and defeated Bolsonaro in the presidential election. Subsequently, Bolsonaro was branded a criminal and arrested on blatantly fabricated charges.

    Now, a presidential election is underway in Brazil in which Bolsonaro’s son, Flavio, is running—pledging to release his father from prison—and he is defeating Lula by a wide margin.

    The moral of the story is this: imprisonment only boosts support for political leaders; it clearly has the opposite effect. So, thank you for my political reincarnation!" writes Mikheil Saakashvili.
