According to a medical report, Lula is cleared to perform his duties in Brasilia and will undergo new tests within five days.

The leftist leader was scheduled to travel on Monday to Colombia for the United Nations COP16 summit. It was not immediately clear if that trip would also be canceled on medical advice.
