Lula's China trip cancelled due to pneumonia.

Brazil's President Lula has postponed his trip to China and key talks with President Xi Jinping due to pneumonia. The left-wing leader was diagnosed with "bacterial and viral bronchopneumonia due to influenza A". Lula's health was reassessed on Saturday, and despite improvement, he was advised to "postpone the trip to China until the cycle of viral transmission ends". Lula had hoped to use the trip to reclaim his country's role in global diplomacy.
