KCTU Calls for Indefinite Strike to Force Yoon's Resignation Over Coup Attempt
Dec 3, 2024, 11:43 PM
The Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU), one of South Korea's largest and most militant labor groups with over 1.2 million members, has declared an indefinite general strike starting tomorrow. The strike aims to force the resignation of President Yoon Suk-yeol, following his attempt to impose martial law, which the union has condemned as an act of rebellion. The KCTU's call for a general strike comes in response to President Yoon's short-lived coup attempt, marking potentially one of the largest protests in South Korea in recent years.
