"How to become an irresponsible leader" for Dummies

Notwithstanding yesterday's clashes between the opposition supporters and police and highly inflammatory situation in the country, Mikhail Saakashvili continues his visit to the Czech republic. Considering the crisis in his country It's hard to see the reason for Saakashvili's personal presence at the Eastern Partnership Summit since Foreign Minister of Georgia Grigol Vashadze is also attending.
As a result of yesterday's clash, 20 people were registered at the Gudushauri hospital with various injuries and two of them, Irakli Khomasuridze and David Chantladze have lost eyesight after being shot in the face by rubber bullets.
We also have to remember that as the crisis began to escalate at the end of April, Saakashvili went to an energy summit in Sophia and on his way back on April 25 diverted for a holiday in Bodrum, Turkey. This intensifies my doubts that it is not at all him that is ruling the country but Vano Merabishvili, Minister of Interior. In any case, it is highly irresponsible for the President to be away from his country for so long and so often when it is on a brink of a civil confrontation.
