Nancy Pelosi Injury: Nancy Pelosi rushed to hospital after injury during foreign trip

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has been hospitalized after she “sustained an injury” during an official engagement in Luxembourg, according to a spokesman. Pelosi, 84, was in Europe to mark the 80th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge in World War II. Her spokesman, Ian Krager, said in a statement that she is “currently receiving excellent treatment from doctors and medical professionals” and is unable to attend the remainder of events on her trip.
He did not describe the nature of her injury or give any additional details. Pelosi “looks forward to returning home to the US soon,” Krager said.
The bipartisan delegation was scheduled to travel to Belgium and Luxembourg to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge, when German and Allied forces clashed in the Ardennes region during World War II.
The US lawmakers were poised to take part in observances of the anniversary on Friday and Saturday “along with veterans and their families, active duty servicemembers, government and military officials and foreign dignitaries,” Pelosi’s office said ahead of the trip. Krager said in Friday’s statement that Pelosi “conveys her thanks and praise to our veterans and gratitude to people of Luxembourg and Bastogne for their service in World War II and their role in bringing peace to Europe.
