Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva underwent a successful surgery in São Paulo due to persistent headaches that had been troubling him. The procedure took place at Hospital Sírio-Libanês, where Lula was assessed and found to have no significant issues after undergoing tests. The surgery was conducted to alleviate the discomfort caused by these headaches, which reportedly became more frequent in recent months. Lula’s health has been closely monitored, especially following his recent battle with pneumonia in March. Following his surgery, Lula expressed his gratitude to the medical team, stating, “I feel better already.” Vice President Geraldo Alckmin has been tasked with political duties during Lula’s brief recovery period. In related news, Alckmin is slated to welcome the Prime Minister of Slovakia, Robert Fico, who has been the target of a recent assassination attempt. This visit, however, is expected to proceed as planned despite the medical emergency involving President Lula. The Brazilian government has reassured the public about Lula’s health, emphasizing that he is expected to make a full recovery and continue his presidency. Lula’s medical team will keep monitoring his progress in the upcoming days, ensuring his readiness to resume official duties as soon as possible.
