“For many years they (the hosts of the Georgian TV channel Rustavi 2. - RT ) called me names in a row. This is their method. It seems to me that we do not need to follow their method, ”RIA Novosti quotes him.

At the same time, Saakashvili denied reports of his possible connection with Rustavi 2, noting that the channel “belongs to the Karamanishvili brothers”.

On July 7, TV presenter Georgy Gabunia began his PS program on Rustavi 2 with foul language against Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Subsequently, the management of the TV channel decided to suspend the journalist from work for two months.

People's Artist of the USSR Oleg Basilashvili, in an interview with the TV channel 360, assessed the behavior of Gabunia.
