How Covid’s Bitter Divisions Tarnished a Liberal Icon

In a part of the world where coronavirus restrictions lingered, Jacinda Ardern struggled to get beyond her association with pandemic policy.

That appeal may have faded, but many New Zealanders do not expect Ms. Ardern to disappear for long. Helen Clark, a former prime minister who was a mentor to Ms. Ardern, followed up her time in office by focusing on international issues with many global organizations.

“I don’t know she’ll be lost to the world,” Professor Shaw said of Ms. Ardern. “She may get a bigger platform.”

Breaking news: Jacinda Ardern, New Zealand’s leader, won’t seek re-election

新西兰总理阿德恩（Jacinda Ardern）宣布，她将于下个月辞去总理一职，称她不再有“足够的精力”来领导国家。

42岁的阿德恩在演讲中，情绪略激动地描述了近五年半的总理工作如何“充满挑战”，一度哽咽。

“我曾希望自己能找到在这段时间里坚持下去所需要的东西，但不幸的是我没有找到。如果继续下去，会给新西兰带来损害。”她对记者说。

阿德恩将不迟于2月7日辞去工党领袖一职，后续几日将投票决定其继任者。大选将于10月14日举行。

民意调查显示，阿德恩所在的中左翼工党落后于反对党国家党，不过其本人在选民中的支持率高于其他领导人。

2017年，时年37岁的阿德恩当选新西兰总理，成为世界上最年轻的女性政府首脑。她带领新西兰度过了新冠疫情、克赖斯特彻奇清真寺枪击案和怀特岛火山爆发。
