Former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi said he was in “good health” after being admitted to hospital in Monaco on Thursday because of heart problems.

Berlusconi, 84, underwent major heart surgery in 2016 and has also survived prostate cancer. Last September, he was hospitalized after contracting coronavirus, “the most dangerous challenge” of his life, he told reporters.
