Hip injury forces Nancy Pelosi to cut short Luxembourg visit – Times of India


US Rep Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), the former Speaker of the House, addresses the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi84, is recovering in a Luxembourg hospital after sustaining a hip injury during an official engagement. Pelosi was attending a ceremony marking the 80th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge as part of a bipartisan congressional delegation when the incident occurred.
According to her spokesman, Ian Krager, Pelosi is receiving “excellent treatment from doctors and medical professionals” but will be unable to participate in the remaining events of the trip. While details of the fall remain limited, sources familiar with the matter confirmed she tripped during an event and injured her hip.
Rep. Michael McCaulR-Texas, who is also part of the delegation, expressed support for Pelosi, sharing a message on social media: “Praying for a speedy recovery. She’s strong, and I’m confident she’ll be back on her feet in no time.” McCaul noted Pelosi had been looking forward to honoring World War II veterans during the trip.
Pelosi’s injury follows a series of high-profile public engagements, including attending the Kennedy Center Honors and the swearing-in of former House colleagues. Despite stepping down from her leadership post two years ago, Pelosi has remained active in Congress, representing her San Francisco district.
The fall also comes two years after her husband, Paul Pelosi, was violently attacked in their home by an intruder, an incident that drew widespread condemnation.
Pelosi’s spokesman assured that she looks forward to returning to the U.S. soon. Her injury mirrors a recent fall by Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell82, who tripped earlier this week in the Senate, spraining his wrist and cutting his face.
Lawmakers and well-wishers continue to send support as Pelosi recovers from her injury.
