Sanae Takaichi is set to become Japan's first woman Prime Minister after being elected leader of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) in October 2025. A 64-year-old conservative and former Economic Security Minister, Takaichi defeated Agriculture Minister Shinjiro Koizumi in a runoff election. She is known for her hardline nationalist views, admiration for Margaret Thatcher, and emphasis on strong, decisive leadership. Her confirmation as Prime Minister is expected around mid-October 2025, marking a historic milestone in Japan's political landscape.
