South Korean Prez's impeachment fails
December 08, 2024
|The Sunday Guardian
SEOUL A South Korean legislative push to impeach President Yoon Suk Yeol over his shortlived imposition of martial law fell through on Saturday after most lawmakers from his conservative governing party boycotted the vote.
The defeat of the motion is expected to intensify public protests calling for Yoon's ouster and deepen political chaos in South Korea, with a survey suggesting a majority of South Koreans support the president's impeachment.
Yoon's martial law declaration drew criticism from his own ruling conservative party, but it is also determined to oppose Yoon's impeachment apparently because it fears losing the presidency to liberals.
Impeaching Yoon required support from two-thirds of the National Assembly, or 200 of its 300 members.
The opposition parties who brought the impeachment motion had 192 seats, but only three lawmakers from PPP participated in the vote.
