Liz Truss became the United Kingdom’s new prime minister on Tuesday, succeeding Boris Johnson, who resigned in July after a series of scandals.
Truss, 47, defeated rival Rishi Sunak in the Conservative Party leadership contest, and she follows Margaret Thatcher and Theresa May to become Britain’s third female premier.
