Former president of Georgia left stateless

Mikheil Saakashvili, the former Georgian president, has been left stateless after being stripped of his Ukrainian citizenship by Petro Poroshenko, Ukraine’s president.

Mr Saakashvili, who is in the US, took over after Georgia’s 2003 Rose Revolution but fell from grace. He is wanted on charges of abuse of office, which he says are politically motivated, and could face extradition to Georgia.
