Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani has been admitted and is being treated in a hospital in “critical but stable condition,” a spokesman said yesterday, Sunday, without specifying what health problems the former district attorney, 81, is facing.
“(Former) Mayor Giuliani is a fighter who has faced every challenge in life with unwavering strength, and is fighting with the same level of determination as we speak,” Ted Goodman, a spokesman, said via X.
He did not specify where the man who was once called “America’s mayor” is being treated, or when he was admitted.
The one-time prosecutor, who made a name for himself in New York mafia trials and was praised for the way he handled the crisis after the September 11, 2001, attacks on the American metropolis, had failed to secure the Republican nomination in the 2008 internal party process.
Donald Trump’s later personal lawyer was disgraced in 2023, when he was ordered to pay $148 million in damages and interest in a defamation case for making allegations of fraud in the 2020 presidential election.

Mr Giuliani played a spearheading role in the effort to invalidate the results of that year’s presidential election, which was won by Democrat Joe Biden.
