Jacinda Ardern vowed to work relentlessly as New Zealand's Prime Minister. He suddenly announced his resignation on Thursday local time. With this announcement, he acknowledged that the unrelenting demands of the prime ministerial duties had finally worn him down.
As a new face, Jacinda became the Prime Minister of New Zealand in 2017. He was only 37 years old then. He became the youngest Prime Minister of the country after 1856. She even set the precedent of becoming the world's youngest female head of government.
Jacinda had to go through many adversities after taking charge of the Prime Minister in the first term. These included the worst terrorist attack in New Zealand's history, the deadly volcanic eruption and the challenge of the corona pandemic. Jacinda played a strong role in facing these challenges. He became a global 'epitome' or 'icon' of progressive politics.
Jacinda won a second term as Prime Minister of New Zealand with a landslide victory in the 2020 election. Although this time, his popularity has seen a slight decline. One of the reasons for this is the declining public confidence in the government, the deterioration of the country's economic situation and the resurgence of conservative opposition. These issues were creating pressure on Jacinda, which showed signs.
While announcing her resignation today, 42-year-old Jacinda said she served as prime minister for five-and-a-half years. It is the most meaningful time of his life. However, there were many challenges at this time.
Jacinda said, he is a man. Politicians are people. They work as hard as they can. Then step back when it's time. Now is the time for him to step aside.
However, Jacinda claims that she is not resigning because the duties of the Prime Minister are difficult. He believes that others can do better than him.
In March 2019, two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand were attacked by a white extremist gunman. 51 people were killed in the shooting. 40 people were injured. Jasinder Sarkar was only 18 months old when the attack took place.
Such a terrorist attack in a peaceful country like New Zealand caused a stir around the world. The whole world was shocked. Jacinda has been praised around the world for her compassionate approach to the victims of the attack. After the attack, she ran to the scene wearing a headscarf. Talk to the families of the victims. His message of harmony and harmony at that time made him a global 'icon' of progressive politics.
Jacinda has also been praised for reforming New Zealand's firearms laws and for pressuring major social media companies to stop spreading hate online. For these reasons, the people of the country voted him to stay in power for another three years in the elections held in the country in October 2020.
Jacinda's party highlighted her government's success in curbing the coronavirus pandemic in the election campaign. To prevent the spread of Corona, the Jasinder government imposed strict lockdowns one after the other. Later, life returned to normal in New Zealand.
Jacinda grew up in the North Island of New Zealand. His father was a police officer there. He saw poverty growing up. According to him, the poverty he experienced as a child helped shape his faith and thinking.
Jacinda studied communication. After completing his studies, he worked in the office of the then Prime Minister of New Zealand, Helen Clark. Since then political awareness grew in him. Later he went to UK. There he served as a senior policy advisor to the then British Prime Minister Tony Blair's government.
After returning to New Zealand in 2008, Jacinda was elected as the first Member of Parliament. He became the deputy leader of the Labor Party in 2017. Within a year, he became the leader of the Labor Party.
Jacinda became the party chief just 7 weeks before the 2017 general election. As the leader of the party, he led the Labor Party through the electoral process. He made history by becoming the Prime Minister of the country.
Within a year of becoming Prime Minister, Jacinda made headlines for reasons other than politics. This time she gave birth to a daughter and came into the discussion. Before her, only former Prime Minister of Pakistan Benazir Bhutto became a mother while in power. Jacinda grabbed the world's attention by attending the United Nations session with her baby in her lap. His daughter will start school at the end of this year.
Jacinda repeatedly urged the countrymen to be kind during the difficult times of Corona. He requested the countrymen to face the corona virus simultaneously with confidence in the government policies. The success of his government in dealing with Corona is discussed around the world. But now Jacinda suddenly announced her resignation before the end of her term. His announcement also surprised everyone. He will leave the post by February 7. The next general election will be held in New Zealand on October 14. Until then, he will remain a member of parliament.
