South Korea's Opposition Plans Impeachment of Acting President Han Duck-soo Over Special Counsel Bills, Set for December 26 Report and December 27 Vote
Dec 24, 2024, 04:48 AM
South Korea's main opposition party, the Democratic Party, has announced plans to initiate impeachment proceedings against Acting President Han Duck-soo. This decision follows Han's failure to sign special counsel bills aimed at investigating the actions of impeached President Yoon Suk-yeol and his wife, Kim Keon-hee. The party's floor leader, Park Chan-dae, set a deadline for Han to promulgate the special counsel laws by Tuesday, warning that failure to do so would result in the impeachment process. The Democratic Party is expected to report the impeachment bill to the National Assembly on December 26, with a vote likely to occur on December 27. The ruling People Power Party criticized the opposition's actions, labeling them as a form of political hostage-taking. Han Duck-soo, who took office following Yoon's impeachment, has faced mounting pressure from the opposition regarding his handling of the special counsel investigations.
