For the first time, New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has appointed a woman from the indigenous Maori population as head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Hiring Mahuta in politics for almost 25 years. A woman with a kind face and brutal, traditional Maori tattoos on him was previously the Minister of Development and Local Government of the Maori, writes NPR.
I am delighted with my team. They take advantage of both the experience of their environment and political experience, as well as personify change and show the New Zealand in which we live today.
- quoted by Ardern NPR. In total, there are 16 Maori in the cabinet of ministers of New Zealand, except for Nanai, all men. Speaking about his team, Ardern is not talking about changes for a reason - in the country's parliament, consisting of 120 people, there are people of African and Sri Lankan descent, more than half of the representatives of the people are women, about 10% are open homosexuals, bisexuals or transgender persons.
Earlier, the woman-prime minister of Finland was ridiculed for her cleavage - and even men began to publish photos with deep cuts in her defense.
