The visit on June 10 was organized just after the Council of Ministers: the president and his wife went to the hospital to lay the foundation stone for the Children’s Brain Institute, which is scheduled to open next year. During the detour to the pediatric unit, they met with doctors and social teams, commending their daily work with minors who are victims of violence. This stop illustrated the importance placed on the reconstruction of young patients.
