Today in South Korea, the parliament reconvened to vote on the impeachment of President Yun Suk-yol. This is reported by Yonhap, UNN reports.
Details
The reason for this initiative was the conflict that erupted last week after the president declared a short-term state of emergency.
The opposition accuses the president of incitement and insists on his removal. The preliminary impeachment vote ended in favor of Yun, but political tensions remain.
A successful impeachment requires the support of two-thirds of the members of parliament. This requires at least eight members of the presidential party to join the opposition.
