Japan PM Takaichi Officially Appointed by Emperor Naruhito at Ceremony | Japan News | #shorts
Hardline conservative Sanae Takaichi was officially appointed as Japan’s new prime minister by Emperor Naruhito on Tuesday (October 21), setting the country up for a decisive turn to the right.
An acolyte of former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and an admirer of Britain’s Margaret Thatcher, Takaichi is expected to return to Abe-style government stimulus as she attempts to jumpstart an economy saddled with slow growth and rising prices.
Takaichi’s new cabinet only includes two women: fellow Abe disciple, Satsuki Katayama becomes the country’s first female finance minister while Kimi Onoda becomes economic security minister.
Rising political star Shinjiro Koizumi will serve as defence minister while veteran lawmaker Toshimitsu Motegi will be foreign minister.
