Suga easily won internal vote to be the new leader of Japan's governing Liberal Democratic Party, paving the way for him to replace Shinzo Abe as the country's next prime minister.
Following Shinzo Abe's resignation announcement in August 2020, Suga emerged as the leading contender to replace him in the leadership election, having gained the support of Deputy Prime Minister Tarō Asō and LDP Secretary-General Toshihiro Nikai, as well as the two largest factions in the LDP and supposedly even Abe himself.
