If the opposition’s initiative receives the required number of votes, the issues will be referred to the Constitutional Court for consideration.

A proposal to impeach South Korean President Yoon Seok-yeol has been submitted to the country’s parliament. Reuters reported this on Wednesday, December 4.

Earlier, six opposition parties in South Korea submitted a proposal to impeach the president to parliament.

The proposal to impeach the president was supported by 191 deputies.

There are 300 seats in the National Assembly (the parliament of South Korea – ed.), 108 of which are controlled by the presidential party Civil Power. For impeachment, a two-thirds vote of the representatives is required.

If the initiative receives the required number of votes, the issue will be referred to the Constitutional Court. Six of the nine judges must support Yoon Seok-yeol’s removal from power. While the case is being considered by the Constitutional Court, the president’s powers will be suspended. His duties will be performed by the Prime Minister.

We remind you that on December 3, the President of South Korea declared martial law in the country. He named the reason as the opposition, which, according to him, is an “anti-state force” that paralyzes the work of the country. The decision sparked clashes with law enforcement and military officials near the parliament building.

South Korea’s parliament has voted to end martial law. The opposition called on Yoon Seok-yeol to resign.
