Former Georgian president Mikheil Saakashvili resigned from his post as governor of the Ukrainian region of Odesa on Nov. 11, accusing the country’s leadership of unbridled corruption despite promises of government overhaul.
In a video posted to his official Facebook page, Mr. Saakashvili criticized the Ukrainian elite as “corrupt filth,” and said efforts to implement reform in the Black Sea region had been stifled by unscrupulous politicians.
