Prime Minister of New Zealand goes on Maternity Leave
New Zealand's youngest leader for the past century - Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern - will become a mother.

New Zealand's New Prime Minister will be the Youngest Female Leader in the World
Jacinda Ardern will be the next New Zealand prime minister after a small political party has entered into a deal with the liberals after the election a month ago.
37-year-old Ardern will be the youngest leader for more than 150 years. She is compared with the young charismatic leaders like President Emmanuel Macron in France and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, the AP reports.
