Baku, Azerbaijan, Sept. 20

By Elena Kosolapova – Trend:

Kyrgyzstan’s President Almazbek Atambayev took a short vacation to undergo a medical examination, the presidential press service reported Sept. 20.

The vacation will presumably last until Oct. 1, 2016, the press service added.

Yesterday Atambayev suddenly felt ill on the way to New York and was advised by his doctors to pass a preliminary medical exam. The exam discovered some symptoms of possible heart problems.

Atambayev had to cancel his visit to the 71st session of the UN General Assembly in New York as a result.

The Kyrgyz delegation in the UN General Assembly will be led by Foreign Minister Erlan Abdyldaev.
