# Former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani is in a critical but stable condition in hospital. The 81-year-old garnered acclaim for his response to the September 11, 2001, terror attacks on the city, earning the nickname “America’s Mayor.” Giuliani worked as an attorney for president Donald Trump in his failed efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election. That led to criminal charges against Giuliani in two US states and a defamation lawsuit from election workers. He has denied wrongdoing in the criminal cases.
