Ardern said she has no firm plans about what she’ll do next – but she is looking forward to spending more time with her family.
New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced Thursday that she will step down for a new leader within weeks, saying she does not believe she has the energy to run for re-election in October.
Speaking at a news conference, Ardern said her term would end by February 7, when she expected a new Labour prime minister to be sworn in – although “depending on the first process.”
