Sanae Takaichi, a Japanese politician, has made history by becoming the first woman to lead Japan's ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), positioning herself to become the country's first female prime minister. Her win, which was not an 'overnight success', comes after a leadership race in which she campaigned on a platform of conservative policies. Takaichi, often referred to as the 'Iron Lady' of Japan, is known for her ultra-conservative views and has been a prominent figure in the LDP's male-dominated group. Despite her historic win, Takaichi is not considered a feminist and her views on gender equality remain a conundrum. Her leadership is expected to bring a shift to the right in Japan's political landscape, with potential impacts on the country's economic policy and international relations, particularly with the United States.
