EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT PRESIDENT DAVID SASSOLI DIES AFTER HOSPITALIZATION

The 65-year-old had been seriously ill in hospital for more than two weeks. He
died at a hospital in Aviano in northern Italy.



Sassoli had spent more than two weeks in hospital

The president of the European Parliament David Sassoli has died, his office
announced early on Tuesday morning.

He passed away after a "serious complication" related to his immune system.

"The president of the European Parliament, David Sassoli, passed away at 1.15
a.m. on January 11 at the hospital in Aviano, Italy," his spokesman, Roberto
Cuillo said on Twitter. 



"The date and place of the funeral will be communicated in the next few hours,"
he added.

On Monday, the EU parliament confirmed he had been admitted to hospital in Italy
on December 26.

In September 2021, during a plenary session of the parliament, the
65-year-old came down with a bad case of pneumonia.

He was married with two children.


TRIBUTES TO DAVID SASSOLI

Tributes soon poured in for Sassoli, an Italian social democrat.

"What a big shock and a big loss. I am deeply saddened.  He left us too early.
My condolences to his family! Dear David, Rest In Peace," tweeted German
MEP Ismail Ertug.



Another MEP, Italian Paolo Borchia, said he was "stunned" by the news as it was
so "sudden."

A former journalist, Sassoli was first elected as a member of the European
Parliament in 2009. He won another term in 2014 and served as the Parliament's
vice-president.

He then became president of the 705-seat legislature in 2019.

The parliament sits for a five-year term between elections, but the president of
the body serves for half that time, and Sassoli had indicated he would not seek
reelection.
