Now he is really on the verge of life and death - Eka Kherkheulidze on Mikheil Saakashvili's hunger strike

"Mikheil Saakashvili's health is not in a condition to endure hunger strike for the second time, now he is really on the verge of life and death" National Movement member Eka Kherkheulidze responds to the indefinite hunger strike by Georgia's third president Mikheil Saakashvili.

She said that she does not share Mikheil Saakashvili's decision as it poses a serious risk to his health, as the third president is in a critical condition after the first hunger strike.

"It will be very risky because the first hunger strike was severe, but he was completely healthy, he had other human resources then, but now it is a completely different reality because his health has been halved, and his condition is very critical, so you cannot assume anything. I have the right to state my position. I don't share it completely because I know, I can imagine what all of this could lead to, and I'm in an awful mood because I don't know if tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, as things develop, he has very little resource in terms of health to cope with this situation. And now of course this factor is more stressful than other issues," said Eka Kherkheulidze.
