In Brazil, the power tries to reassure on the state of health of the president.

Jair Bolsonaro was admitted to a military hospital in Brasilia on Monday evening for tests after feeling unwell, according to local press.

Jair Bolsonaro, 67, was stabbed in the abdomen during his 2018 presidential campaign, and has since suffered from recurring intestinal problems.

He was absent Monday evening from a ceremony organized by the Republican Party and for which his presence had been announced.

The president is 'well'

"I'm sure the president is fine, we're just having him undergo some tests, that's why he's not here," said party chairman MP Marcos Pereira.

According to the G1

news site

, first lady Michelle Bolsonaro was present at the ceremony and said that her husband "is fine", and the Minister of Communication Fabio Faria spoke of "malaise".

The president was hospitalized twice, in July and January, for intestinal problems.

He underwent several surgeries after his attack in 2018.
