"He lost 20 kg since joining Viva Med" - Mikheil Saakashvili refuses to take food and medicine

Mikheil Saakashvili refuses to take medicine and food and waits in a ward for American specialists.
Dr. Lakhani, an American neurologist, is waiting to see the third president of Georgia at the Viva Med clinic. Mikheil Saakashvili will also be visited by an American lawyer and Georgian experts.

Until now Nobel laureate Dr. James Cobb is waiting for an answer from the Ministry of Health. According to the lawyers, they are appealing to the Ministry of Health about issuing a license to another foreign doctor, a gastroenterologist.

"The situation is better compared to yesterday, but the overall situation is difficult. It is about health. He refused to take medication, but not out of protest. He is 86 kilograms. Since his admission to Vivamed, he has lost 20 kilograms. It's a fact that his health is deteriorating. The trial could not be held. The judge stopped the process due to the impossibility of questioning him, which was reflected in the ruling. Such a legal document appeared for the first time.

Mikheil Saakashvili says he sees no point in taking medication until the examination is over. On the contrary, the situation is getting more and more complicated. He can't eat, he is in pain," Mikheil Saakashvili's lawyer Shalva Khachapuridze says.

According to him, American expert Shaheen Lakhani will finish his examinations today, while James Cobb is waiting in the lobby of the clinic for the permission to enter. The Ministry of Health has not yet responded to the Nobel laureate Dr.

"We know that Mr. Saakashvili doesn't take food, they brought it to him and he didn't take it. That incident yesterday, when prosecutors and a judge entered his room, is also unacceptable. The doctors fear that Saakashvili may go on hunger strike again," says the American lawyer.

Recall that Mikheil Saakashvili's health further deteriorated after yesterday's forced court hearing in the chamber. The session was interrupted because of the serious condition of the third president.

According to expert doctors, if Mikheil Saakashvili does not take the necessary medication in time, he may develop a stroke or heart attack.
