South Korea's Yoon Faces Impeachment Amid Martial Law Fallout and Allegations of Ordering MP Arrests
Dec 13, 2024, 02:37 AM
South Korea is embroiled in a deepening political crisis as opposition leader Lee Jae-myung and some members of the ruling party call for the impeachment of President Yoon Suk-yeol following his short-lived imposition of martial law. The National Assembly is set to vote on the impeachment motion on Saturday, amid rising tensions marked by clashes between police and pro-impeachment protesters near the president's residence and death threats against MPs. President Yoon has defended his declaration of martial law as an act of governance and has denied charges of rebellion, accusing the opposition of obstructing state actions against Chinese espionage, North Korean electoral interference, organized crime, and drug trafficking. Reports have emerged that Yoon instructed the police on six occasions to arrest members of parliament. His approval ratings have plummeted to the lowest levels since he took office. The political situation remains fluid, with internal divisions within the ruling party over the impeachment proceedings.
