Viktar Tsyareshchanka may quit election

Viktar Tsyareshchanka could withdraw from the election campaign. The politician is still in 3rd city clinic.

"If the state of my health does not improve, I may withdraw from the elections. If there is pressure on me, then I will do it. This can happen at any moment. But I have no aim of doing it now or in an hour. I'm not yet able to make the right decision," quotes his Radio Liberty.

Tsyareshchanka said that he is on a drip but he has no swelling on the face. His blood pressure and body temperature are normal.

The politician had an acute attack on August 28 when he drank a freshly-squeezed carrot jouice in the cafe Grunwald. He filed a statement with the police, and, according to him, the law enforcement officers are investigating the incident.

There appeared reports on the weekend that in Hrodna 11.5 thousand signatures in favor of Tsyareshchanka were deemed invalid. The politician said that it was "false and prepaid" material, and they should wait for the decision of the Central Election Commission.
