South Korea's Opposition Files Impeachment Motion Against President Yoon Suk Yeol After Martial Law Attempt on December 4, 2024
Dec 4, 2024, 08:21 AM
South Korea's opposition parties have initiated impeachment proceedings against President Yoon Suk Yeol following his abrupt declaration of martial law, which was later revoked within six hours due to legislative pushback. This unprecedented move marked the first attempt to impose martial law in nearly 50 years in the country, leading to significant political turmoil. The six opposition parties submitted the impeachment motion on December 4, 2024, as lawmakers and members of the main opposition party gathered in Seoul to demand Yoon's resignation. The political crisis has intensified as both the opposition and factions within Yoon's own party express discontent over his actions.
