Japan elects first female prime minister

Japan's parliament has named Sanae Takaichi as the country's first female prime minister. The 64-year-old heads the Liberal Democratic Party - a conservative party that has held on to power in Japan since the end of World War Two. Now she needs to navigate Japan through multiple domestic and international challenges. The World's Marco Werman learned more from Jeffrey Hall. He's a lecturer in Japanese politics at Kanda University of International Studies just outside Tokyo.
