In October 2025Takaichi was chosen as the country\u2019s 104th prime minister after a vote in the National Diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During a special parliamentary session, Takaichi secured the most votes in the Lower House, receiving 237 out of 465. However, she failed to win a majority in the Upper House during the first round. As a result, lawmakers held a runoff vote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the second round, the first female prime minister of Japan faced Yoshihiko Noda, leader of the main opposition party. Takaichi won the runoff with 125 of 246 votes, securing her position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier this month, Takaichi was elected leader of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party. She replaced Shigeru Ishiba, who resigned after the party lost two national elections. Consequently, the LDP now governs as a minority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the coalition with Komeito collapsed, cooperation from the Japan Innovation Party helped Takaichi form a government. Her victory also introduces Japan\u2019s first \u201c<em>first gentleman<\/em>.\u201d Her husband, Taku Yamamoto, has said he will support her discreetly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In conclusion, the appointment of the first female prime minister of Japan marks a significant shift in the country\u2019s political history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.uninter.edu.mx\/ehli\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Blog EHLI<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ehli.uninter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram EHLI<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/dheiuninter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook EHLI<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sanae Takaichi makes history after winning a decisive parliamentary vote Japan has entered a historic moment with the appointment of Sanae Takaichi as the first female prime minister of Japan.
