Japanese Prime Minister Resigned, New Female Candidate
There has been a significant change in the political process in Japan. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

The government resigned, paving the way for the election of a new prime minister. This decision was announced before the start of an extraordinary session of the lower house of the Japanese parliament.

Shigeru Ishiba served as prime minister for 386 days and implemented a number of important reforms during this time. His resignation is expected to mark the beginning of a new era in the country's political life.

For the first time in Japanese history, a female candidate has been nominated for the position of prime minister. Sanae Takaichi, chairperson of the Liberal Democratic Party, is expected to be appointed as the new prime minister.

If elected, she will become the first female prime minister in Japan's history. Takaichi's candidacy is supported by the majority in parliament, which almost guarantees her election.

Before the election, the Liberal Democratic Party formed an alliance with the "Japan Renewal Society" party. This agreement ensured Takaichi's advantage in the election.

The new prime minister will form the government cabinet in the coming days. According to reports, Toshimitsu Motegi will return to the position of foreign minister.

Additionally, Shinjiro Koizumi is expected to become the defense minister. He will be the youngest person to hold this position.

These changes in Japan are regarded as an important step aimed at strengthening the country's internal political stability and paving the way for new reforms.
