Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi relocated to the prime minister's official residence in Tokyo's Chiyoda Ward, Nagatacho district, from the House of Representatives dormitory on Monday. The residence, situated next to the prime minister's office, facilitates immediate responses to potential emergencies.
Her husband, Taku Yamamoto, a former Lower House lawmaker who previously suffered a stroke, will join her there to continue his rehabilitation with her support, according to sources close to the prime minister.
Earlier this month, Takaichi announced the move on the social media platform X, stating, "Crisis management is crucial for running a country." This decision underscores her commitment to efficient governance amid national responsibilities.
The dormitory is located in the Akasaka district of Minato Ward, adjacent to Chiyoda Ward. By moving to the official residence, Takaichi aims to balance her duties while ensuring robust support for her family.
This transition highlights the stability of her administration and prioritizes national security through proactive measures.
