South Korea's Opposition Files Impeachment Motion Against Acting PM Han Duck-soo Over Judicial Appointments by December 26, Vote Set for December 27
Dec 26, 2024, 04:49 AM
The South Korean opposition, led by the Democratic Party, is moving forward with an impeachment motion against Acting Prime Minister Han Duck-soo. The party has set a deadline for Han to appoint three new Constitutional Court judges by December 26. If he fails to do so, the Democratic Party plans to proceed with the impeachment process. Han has stated that he will not appoint the judges until there is an agreement between the political parties, citing the need for bipartisan consensus before exercising his presidential powers. This refusal has heightened tensions, with the opposition accusing him of obstructing the judicial appointments necessary for addressing the current political crisis. The impeachment vote is scheduled for December 27, with the opposition expressing confidence in their support to remove Han from office.
