Summary
Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is recovering in intensive care after undergoing a successful craniotomy to treat a brain bleed caused by a fall in October.
The 79-year-old underwent surgery at São Paulo's Sirio Libanês hospital following a Monday MRI that detected an intracranial hemorrhage.
Doctors reported no complications and said Lula is "doing well" under close monitoring.
The injury had previously led him to cancel a BRICS summit trip.
Fuck me.
I don't like Lula
But if he dies or retires, the Brazilian left has nothing to offer in his place, and it's pretty much guaranteed Bolsonaro will be president again.
Big whoop. It's not exactly rocket science, is it?
