WARSAW, Poland — A Polish man who has been at the center of an international life-support dispute has died at a British hospital, officials said.
The middle-aged man, identified only as R.S., was repeatedly put on and off life support treatment during weeks of wrangling at British and European courts over whether continuing the treatment was in his best interests.
Polish Deputy Foreign Minister Piotr Wawrzyk told reporters Tuesday evening that the man died. He said Poland’s authorities have been taking every effort to save his life.
Poland’s government took steps last week to bring him to the country for specialized treatment.
