Prime Minister of New Zealand Jacinda Ardernworld icon of progressive politics, surprised the country by announcing that he would step down in a few weeks.
The 42-year-old leader who led the country through natural disasters, the coronavirus pandemic, COVID-19 and his worst terrorist act, he said he no longer had the “energy” to continue.
“I am human. We do our best while we can until the time comes. For me, this is the time,” she said at a meeting with members of her Labor Party.
“I am out of power for another four years,” he added, noting that he would retire no later than February 7.
Ardern came to power in 2017 with a coalition government and then led his centre-left party to a resounding victory in the 2020 elections.
During her tenure, she has been praised for her response to the terrorist attack on two Muslim mosques and the COVID-19 pandemic, becoming the second world leader to have a child while in office.
But his popular support, often referred to as “Jacindamania”, has tumbled in recent polls amid rising inflation and fears of rising crime rates.
In his first public appearance since Parliament went into recess in December, he told Labor’s annual meeting that he hoped to find the strength to continue as leader, but failed.

He also announced that the next general election would be held on 14 October and until then he would continue as an MP.
On Thursday, the ruler said she was proud of her government’s actions to make housing more affordable, tackle climate change and child poverty.
“And we have done so by responding to some of the most serious threats to the health and economic well-being of our nation since The Second World War”, he assured.
Although the latest polls show that a coalition of the center-right National and Act parties will win the election, Ardern assured that this is not the reason for his resignation.
“I’m leaving not because I think we can’t win the next election, but because I think we can (win) and we will,” he said at a meeting in Napier, on the country’s east coast. .
Ardern indicated that the Labor caucus would choose a new leader within three days of his leaving office.
Deputy Prime Minister Grant Robertson said he would not run for the post.
Ardern assured that there is no secret in his resignation.
“I’m leaving because there’s a lot of responsibility in such a privileged job, the responsibility of knowing when you’re the right person to lead and when you’re not,” he said.
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese called Ardern a leader who “showed the world how to manage intelligence and strength”.
He claimed that she demonstrated that empathy and insight “are powerful leadership qualities.”
Ardern’s party faced a loss of confidence in the government, a recession in the economy, and a resurgence of conservative opposition.
The stress has been evident lately, with Ardern rarely losing her temper last month when she was caught on the microphone calling an opposition politician an “arrogant jerk.”
