Javier Lambán undergoes cancer surgery again

The former president of the Government of Aragon and socialist senator, Javier Lambán, will once again undergo surgery for cancer, as he himself announced this afternoon on his social networks.

“Tomorrow I have surgery to remove three small cancerous lesions from my liver. “I am once again in the hands of science and the wonderful Aragonese public health,” she posted on her X account (formerly Twitter).

Two and a half years ago, on February 15, 2021, the then president of Aragón announced that he was suffering from colon cancer, for which he underwent surgery in May of that same year, recovering his public activity just fifteen days later.

At that time, he stressed that he was only doing “the same thing as many other citizens, who face this same disease and continue with their ordinary activities.”

Since then, he has undergone periodic medical check-ups, and it was in one of them that these small cancerous lesions were detected in his liver. The still general secretary of the Aragonese socialists is scheduled to undergo surgery again in Zaragoza, where he was already clinically treated during the first part of his illness.

Lambán took office this Tuesday as senator after the results of the regional elections, in which he ran as a socialist candidate to renew the presidency, did not allow him to repeat the position, which now falls into the hands of the popular Jorge Azcón.

Its premiere in the Senate coincided with the day that King Felipe VI closed the round of consultations with Núñez Feijóo and with Sánchez himself, whom he commissioned to try to form a Government. Then he declared that his national leader, Pedro Sánchez, has "very complicated" to form a Government "within the Constitution", since the necessary support for this "is against" the Magna Carta and the "cohesion of Spain." .

He also warned that in Congress there is a “very clearly conservative majority” after the elections that will prevent the implementation of progressive policies, which is why he sees the new investiture process “full of questions.”
