Political explosion in South Korea: President Yoon before the elevation!

In South Korea, the parliament took a historical step by voting the office president Han Duck soo. With an overwhelming 192 votes, the application was accepted without votes against, while the deputies of the conservative government party boycotted. The opposition stated that Hans Zehnen when appointing three judges for the Constitutional Court, which is supposed to examine the allegations against President Yoon Suk Yeol, was the main reason for the decision. Yoon, who imposed war law on December 3 and lifted it again after violent protests, now sees itself on the threshold on the final elevation, since he is also accused of abuse of office, as the Kleine Zeitung reported.

political crisis escalated

The political situation in South Korea threatens to further tighten, since the constitutional court now has 180 days to decide on Yoon's fate. If it is finally discontinued, new elections are required within 60 days, which increases uncertainty in the country. The current crisis not only causes excitement in Germany, but also worries international partners, such as the USA and Europe, which Yoon previously regarded as a reliable ally. The opposition has initiated an office procedure against Yoon because it accuses him of the constitutional fracture, which further fuels the public debate about the legality of his actions, such as the Zeit reported.

Interim President Han Duck Soo, who also acts as Prime Minister, is now under pressure, because he has announced that he only wants to name new judges with non -partisan approval. This is considered by the opposition as a lack of will to respect the constitution and could further complicate the political situation. The recent developments show a clear break in the political system of South Korea and leave space for continuing uncertainty in the government.
