"The man is seriously weakened ... This is a precondition of a stroke" | Eka Kherkheulidze on Mikheil Saakashvili's state of health

"The man is seriously weakened. His hands are shaking, he is suffering from dizziness, nausea" ... - Eka Kherkheulidze, a member of the United National Movement, speaks about Mikheil Saakashvili in the show "Guest of the Day" on the Mtavari Channel. Kherkheulidze recently visited the third president in Gori military hospital.

The man is seriously weakened. If you can even picture Mikheil Saakashvili in such a state. When I came in he was laying down, he told me he couldn't stand up, but I asked him if he could somehow force himself and I helped him, and he sat down on a chair. But he is in an unbelievable condition - his hands are shaking, he is dizzy, nauseous ...

When a person has no history of blood pressure, a 200/120 pressure is a prerequisite for a stroke. Where were they trying to take him in a condition like this? he would simply die on the way.

He's waiting for the doctors to come as soon as they can. The man wouldn't let me leave, he said that he couldn't last there, he didn't know how he would be, and he wouldn't be able to let anyone know.  But the consul was waiting to come in, and it would have been embarrassing not to leave," says Eka Kherkheulidze.
