Description
Sanae Takaichi, one of Japan's few prominent female politicians, announces she will run for head of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party as it seeks new leadership before a general election. A divisive figure even within the party, Takaichi strongly opposes apologies for Japan's wartime past and has fought against allowing married couples to have different surnames. The race to lead the party was thrown wide open after its current head, Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga, said he would not run. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
