Italian President Sergio Mattarella, aged 83, was admitted to Rome's Santo Spirito hospital on Tuesday evening for a scheduled procedure to implant a pacemaker. The operation, performed at 8 p.m., was described by the Quirinale as a planned intervention that raised no concerns. Post-surgery, Mattarella spent a quiet night in the cardiology department and remained in stable condition, showing no symptoms. The procedure did not interrupt his official duties, as he completed his engagements for the day, including a meeting with the Prime Minister of Montenegro. Italian political leaders, including Premier Giorgia Meloni, expressed their wishes for a speedy recovery. Meloni stated, 'Italy awaits you soon, with the same strength and dedication of always.' The president's health is expected to allow him to return to the Quirinale as early as Wednesday or Thursday.
