Saakasvhili stranded on Polish-Ukrainian border for hours.

Former Georgian President and governor of the Ukrainian region of Odessa Mikheil Saakashvili, was stranded on the Polish-Ukrainian border for hours before his supporters helped him force his way into the country. Saakashvili was traveling by train which was stopped in Przemyśl as Ukrainian border guards denied him entry. He was joined by hundreds of his supporters, and former Ukrainian PM Yulia Tymoshenko who helped him cross the border. Saakashvili intended to return to Ukraine despite being stripped of Ukrainian citizenship by his one-time ally, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko, and being threatened with arrest and extradition if he sets foot on Ukrainian soil. Back in 2014, Poroshenko asked Saakashvili to became Odessa governor to help drive reforms after pro-democracy protests in 2014 ousted a pro-Russian president in Kiev. But Saakashvili quit last November, accusing Poroshenko of abetting corruption. In July this year, he was stripped of his Ukrainian citizenship while out of the country.
