Ex-Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko stopped a hunger strike. This was reported by Interfax from the words of the German neuropathologist Lutz Harms.
According to the doctor, he examined Tymoshenko and drew up a “certain” treatment plan. “We will begin to gradually take it out of the state of the hunger strike. At first it will be water and juices, a little later it will begin to eat hard food, ”Harms said at a press conference in Kharkov.
Tymoshenko was transferred from the Kachanovskaya colony to the Kharkov city hospital earlier in the morning of May 9. The ex-Prime Minister of Ukraine was starving since April 24 in protest against the beating of escorts. She is serving a term for abuse of powers when signing contracts for the supply of Russian gas in 2009.
The support of Tymoshenko was provided by the leaders of the 13 European countries who refused to come to the Yalta summit, which organized the Ukrainian authorities. As a result, the forum appointed on May 11-12 was canceled.
