EXCERPT:

ARDERN: "This summer I had hoped to find a way to prepare not just for another year, but another term, because that is what this year requires. I have not been able to do that. And so today I'm announcing that I will not be seeking re-election. And then my term is prime minister will conclude no later than the seventh of February. This has been the most fulfilling five and a half years of my life. But it's also had its challenges.”
