Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has undergone emergency surgery to drain a bleed on his brain. The surgery was successful and Lula is “well” and currently being monitored in the intensive care unit of Sirio Libanes hospital in Sao Paulo, in southeastern Brazil, a translation of the medical note said. He was transferred from the capital Brasilia, where on Monday he had an MRI scan, it added. Earlier this year, Lula fell at home and was left with a cut visible on the back of his head, just above his neck. Doctors believe the two incidents are linked, according to a translation of the hospital’s medical report.

Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva was rushed to Sao Paulo overnight for emergency surgery to drain a bleed on his brain linked to a fall in October, a medical note published by the government said on Tuesday. The operation was successful and the 79-year-old Lula is "well" and being monitored in the intensive care unit, the note said. Lula had an MRI scan, which detected an intracranial hemorrhage, and he was transferred to Sao Paulo for surgery at the Sirio Libanes Hospital. Tests in early November showed his condition was stable and Lula remained active, recently travelling to Montevideo to discuss a Mercosur trade deal. Brazil's Labor Minister Luiz Marinho was among the first politicians to wish Lula a swift and full recovery on social media platform X.

Haddad, a former mayor of Sao Paulo, took office vowing to restore public accounts and with the challenge of presenting a credible fiscal framework after Congress passed a giant Lula social spending package. Markets reacted badly to Haddad's first days in office, especially after Lula ordered a budget-busting extension to a fuel tax exemption which Haddad had publicly opposed. "Haddad learned on his first day in office that he will be a decorative figure, a sort of task worker for President Lula," the conservative daily said in an editorial. On Tuesday, markets were further rattled by remarks by Lula's social security and labour ministers. That was compounded when he said Lula's government would need to review the investor-friendly pension reform approved by Bolsonaro's administration.
