Mexico President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador underwent a cardiac catheterization Friday and his heart was found to be healthy and functioning properly, according to a government statement.

The procedure followed a cardiac stress test two weeks ago, the president said in a video on his official Twitter account, in which he confirmed he had left hospital and returned to the National Palace, the country’s seat of government, in Mexico.
