"Saakashvili graduated from the School of International Law of the Kiev
State University (Ukraine) in 1992. He briefly worked as a human rights
officer for the interim State Council of Georgia following the overthrow of
President Zviad Gamsakhurdia before receiving a fellowship from the United
States State Department (via the Edmund S. Muskie/FREEDOM Support Act (FSA)
Graduate Fellowship Program).

"He received an LLM from Columbia Law School in 1994 and Doctor of Laws
degree from The George Washington University Law School the following year.
In 1995, he also received a diploma from the International Institute of
Human Rights in Strasbourg, France.

"After graduation, while working in the New York law firm of Patterson
Belknap Webb & Tyler in early 1995, Saakashvili was approached by Zurab
Zhvania, an old friend from Georgia who was working on behalf of President
Eduard Shevardnadze to recruit talented young Georgians to enter politics.
He stood in the December 1995 elections along with Zhvania, and both men won
seats in parliament, standing for the Union of Citizens of Georgia,
Shevardnadze's party."
