Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has resigned, as planned, and has been replaced by Shigeru Ishiba, who was chosen as the leader of the governing Liberal Democratic Party. Ishiba was officially elected as the new Prime Minister of Japan by the parliament, which is dominated by the ruling coalition. Ishiba's appointment comes after Kishida stepped down earlier this month, reportedly due to public outrage over corruption scandals within his party. Ishiba is expected to hold a news conference to announce his Cabinet.
