Labour Minister Zeta Emilianidou on Tuesday remained in an induced coma in an Athens private hospital following lengthy surgery the day before after suffering a brain aneurysm on Sunday.

A medical report had said the aneurysm was blocked via a specialized method and that the Minister was now in an induced coma and in critical condition.

Emilianidou was initially admitted to a private hospital in Nicosia, but due to the seriousness of her condition she was air-lifted to a hospital in Athens, an official announcement said.

In a post on Twitter shortly afterwards, the President addressed the Minister saying: “To the Minister of Labour, to my dear Zeta, who is currently undergoing surgery, I wish you a speedy recovery.”

Moreover, the Health Ministry said that on Sunday night the 67-year-old minister was suffering from severe headaches and was taken immediately to a private clinic in Nicosia where her condition was diagnosed.

Health Minister Michalis Hadjipantelas has travelled to Athens with her, it added.
