KIEV, Ukraine — They alarm him “the Energizer Bunny.”
To his supporters, Mikheil Saakashvili, the above Georgian president, is a active warrior adjoin bribery and Vladimir Putin’s Russia who adapted his graft-ridden country into a advertise for Western reforms and is one of the best absorbing abstracts in the post-Soviet sphere.
To his enemies, of whom there are many, he is a confrontational and alienated alarm who has a predilection at times adjoin absolutism and is captivated with a animalism for power.
But both abandon accede on one thing: He doesn’t accord up a political fight.
Today Saakashvili finds himself bound in yet addition absinthian action — in Ukraine. And his capital ambition is an old acquaintance from his university canicule in Kiev in the backward 1980s: the country’s president, Petro Poroshenko.
Saakashvili’s adventures has apparent abundant turns. A alum of Columbia Law School, he spearheaded Georgia’s 2003 “Rose Revolution” and became a affiche boy for the Bush administration’s all-embracing pro-democracy agenda. (The U.S. Secret Service aboriginal gave him the “Energizer Bunny” moniker.) He congenital a glass-walled badge address in Tbilisi to accentuate his charge to abstraction a avant-garde and cellophane force.
But in 2008, he fought a adverse war adjoin an advancing Russian army. He larboard appointment and his country in 2013, afterwards his appellation concluded and his affair absent power.
After active briefly in Brooklyn, he confused to Ukraine and, at Poroshenko’s invitation, became the governor of the Odessa region.

That didn’t last, and now he has adapt himself as a baton in Ukraine’s anti-government opposition.
This month, he has organized a pro-reform activity of sorts in advanced of the country’s parliament.
“Throw the dupe out!” Saakashvili said in advertence to Poroshenko, whom he accuses of bribery and blocking reforms to assure his allies. Later, he alleged the Ukrainian admiral “a bargain Mafioso.”
The government is angry back. This year, Ukrainian authorities said Saakashvili afield abounding out his citizenship application, and they bare him of the Ukrainian authorization he acquired in 2015, barring him from entering the country. (He was in the United States at the time of the announcement.) The move drew abundant all-embracing criticism and rendered Saakashvili a stateless above arch of state, back Georgia had revoked his authorization back he accustomed Ukrainian citizenship.
In September, Saakashvili responded by affronted through a bound bridge into Ukraine with hundreds of his supporters. He after appear a “united opposition” adjoin Poroshenko and barnstormed the country to accumulate abutment and accession his profile.
But the adventure is far from over — and Poroshenko may accept the aftermost word.
Last week, Ukraine’s prosecutor general, Yuri Lutsenko, a Poroshenko ally, appear that authorities had alone Saakashvili’s address for political asylum, aperture up his accessible displacement to Georgia, area he is capital on accuse of abstraction and corruption of ability while in office. Saakashvili says the case adjoin him in Georgia is a political witch hunt.
Lutsenko additionally accused Saakashvili of aggravating to adapt “a agitated coup” and accepting visas for 20 of his Georgian supporters beneath apocryphal pretenses. Saakashvili, for his part, denied the accusations and said authorities had illegally bedeviled and abandoned a cardinal of his followers.

“The accepted prosecutor is lying completely!” Saakashvili wrote in a Facebook post, claiming that Ukrainian law accustomed him to break in the country.
For Saakashvili, displacement would be an abhorrent end to what was declared to be his political resurrection. Back he accustomed in Ukraine over two years ago as an exile, Poroshenko installed him as Odessa governor in hopes that the Georgian could assignment his advanced abracadabra on one of Ukraine’s best base regions.
“Mikhail Saakashvili is my acquaintance from our apprentice years. I bethink him as a able and absolute person, and I accept acumen to assurance him,” Poroshenko tweeted at the time.
The trust, however, anon angry into accessible antipathy. Saakashvili said the Kiev government was adverse his reforms and accommodated as governor one year later, lashing out at Poroshenko and added top officials. He launched his own political movement and started a allocution show. On one episode, a changeable war adept sang a song alleged “The Chocolate Ass.” Few absent the reference: Poroshenko is a billionaire bonbon tycoon.
But there are political figures, including aural the action itself, who are afflictive with Saakashvili’s actualization as a Ukrainian agitator — the affirmation in advanced of the assembly actuality a case in point, they say.
The protest’s planners say it was declared to be concise and bound to pressuring assembly to accept three pieces of ameliorate legislation. But Saakashvili and his followers — abounding of whom were battle-hardened veterans from Ukraine’s war in the east with Russian-led separatists — created a aggressive covering camp, complete with acreage kitchen.
Saakashvili aloft the burden by arising an claiming to Poroshenko to canyon the legislation or resign. Clashes bankrupt out amid protesters and the anarchism badge who had set up a award about the encampment.
“Saakashvili fabricated the beef be adjoin Poroshenko — he alone it, which is in Saakashvili’s interests,” said Alyona Getmanchuk, administrator of the anticipate catchbasin New Europe Center in Kiev.

Only a scattering of activists are camping at the parliament, and Saakashvili’s polling numbers are still low — beneath 2 percent — but there’s a abhorrence that his go-for-broke access could delegitimize the action as a whole. Some anguish it could added attenuate the adherence of a country still convalescent from its 2014 revolution, and aggressive a adamant affront in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions.
“He’s added radical,” said a Ukrainian action baton who batten on the action of anonymity because of the acuteness of the accountable aural the anti-government forces. “I wouldn’t exclude his resorting to force — a quiet action would be afterlife for him and his supporters.”
In an account in the offices of his political party, the Movement of New Armament — with a apprehension of Ronald Reagan abutting to his board — Saakashvili, for his part, denied he is gluttonous confrontation. But he advisedly accepted to actuality an egomaniac. “Every baby-kisser is an egomaniac,” he said with a laugh, claiming that he has complete over the years.
“You cannot accept all or nothing,” he said. “Jackpots no best absorption me in politics, because I additionally see the risks. You can lose everything.”
