Shigeru Ishiba, a former defense minister, has been elected as the new leader of Japan's ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and is set to become the country's next prime minister. Ishiba, who won in a run-off against Sanae Takaichi, will be officially sworn in as Japan's 102nd prime minister on October 1. His victory follows the resignation of outgoing Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, who stepped down due to a series of scandals. Ishiba aims to address economic issues, enhance national security, and rebuild public trust in the LDP. Despite previous unsuccessful bids for leadership, Ishiba's popularity with the public and his experience have positioned him to lead the party and the country.
