A historic decision has been made by Japan's parliament. For the first time in Japan's politics, such an event has occurred, bringing Japan's politics into the spotlight. For the past few months, there was anticipation regarding the position of Prime Minister in Japan, which has finally ended. For the first time in Japan's history, a female Prime Minister has been appointed. Japan's parliament has elected Sanae Takaichi, known as an ultra-conservative, as Japan's first female Prime Minister.

After the defeat of the Liberal Democratic Party in Japan in July, a political vacuum was created. Since then, political instability had arisen in the country. There was great curiosity about who would become the Prime Minister as no party had a majority. After Ishiba resigned with his cabinet, he paved the way for Takaichi to form the government. Ishiba was Prime Minister for only one year. With Takaichi's selection, there is a possibility of a greater influence of right-wing ideology on the administration in the coming period.

Sanai Takai is known as a highly conservative leader. She entered politics at the age of 64. She was first elected to parliament in 1993. She has worked on various issues including economic security, internal security, and gender equality. During this time, she has held important positions in the party and government.
