就在美国大选如火如荼地进行之际,日本自民党总裁的竞选也拉开序幕。随着日本首相福田康夫宣布辞职,日本的下一任首相人选成为世人瞩目的焦点。日前,日本前防卫大臣小池百合子在东京正式宣布,将参加竞选自民党总裁,成为继希拉里之后又一竞选国家最高领导人的女性。 Just as the U.S. presidential election was in full swing, the election of the president of Japan’s Liberal Democratic Party also kicked off. As Japanese Prime Minister Yasuo Fukuda announced his resignation, Japan’s next prime minister became the focus of world attention. Recently, Japan’s former defense minister Koike Koizumi officially announced in Tokyo that he will run for president of the Liberal Democratic Party and become the next woman to run for supreme leadership after Hillary Clinton.
