She is often compared to former U.S. President Donald Trump due to her strong &#8220;Japan First&#8221; nationalist agenda and conservative views. Takaichi won a clear majority in the parliamentary vote, replacing Shigeru ishiba, who resigned after one year.<\/p>\n<p>Despite breaking a historic gender barrier, Takaichi opposes modern feminist ideas, including same-sex marriage and expanding <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/sen-rand-paul-challenges-biden-transgender-sports-policy\/\" title=\"Sen. Rand Paul challenges Biden transgender sports policy\">gender equality<\/a>, which has drawn criticism from liberal groups and LGBT activists in Japan. She has expressed admiration for former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and is known for playing drums as a hobby.<\/p>\n<p>Her political platform includes plans to strengthen Japan&#8217;s military, implement important tax cuts, tighten immigration policies, and roll back diversity and gender equality initiatives. Internationally, she is seen as a hawkish leader, promoting economic and security policies that prioritize Japan&#8217;s interests, reminiscent of Trump&#8217;s approach in the U.S. Takaichi is set to meet Trump in Tokyo soon, continuing ties formed through her late mentor, former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Sanae Takaichi, a 64-year-old conservative leader, was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-claims-he-met-with-israeli-pm-golda-meir-during-six-day-war-but-history-begs-to-differ\/\" title=\"Biden Claims He Met With Israeli PM Golda Meir During Six Day War, But History Begs To Differ\">elected prime minister<\/a> on Tuesday by Japan&rsquo;s parliament.<\/p>\n<p>Many have likened her to the country&rsquo;s version of President Donald Trump because of her &ldquo;Japan First&rdquo;
