TOKYO (AP) — Japanese sushi legend Jiro Ono won three Michelin stars for more than a decade, the world’s oldest head chef to do so. He has served the world’s dignitaries and his art of sushi was featured in an award-winning film. After all these achievements and at the age of 100, he is not ready to fully retire.

Takaichi, the first woman to lead Japan, is a conservative like Trump and just a few days ago the US president congratulated her on her election as PM. He also praised her for being a "highly respected person of great wisdom and strength".
