Former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani is hospitalized in “critical but stable condition,” according to his spokesperson’s announcement. However, no details have been disclosed about the specific health problems the 81-year-old former prosecutor is facing. “Mayor Giuliani is a fighter who has faced every challenge in life with unwavering strength, and he is fighting with the same level of determination as we speak,” said Ted Goodman, his spokesperson, via X.
The former prosecutor, who built his reputation prosecuting New York mafia cases and was praised for his handling of the crisis following the September 11, 2001 attacks on the American metropolis, had failed to secure the Republican nomination in the 2008 primary process.

Donald Trump’s later personal attorney fell from grace in 2023 when he was ordered to pay $148 million in damages and interest in a defamation case for making election fraud allegations regarding the 2020 presidential election. Giuliani played a spearhead role in the effort to overturn the results of that year’s presidential election, which was won by Democrat Joe Biden.
