🤯 In a shocking turn of events, South Korea's ruling party leader, Han Dong-hoon, has called for the impeachment of President Yoon Suk-yeol. Han described impeachment as the only solution to the chaos sparked by President Yoon's controversial declaration of martial law.
Speaking to reporters on Thursday, Han urged his party, the People Power Party, to support the impeachment as their official stance. He emphasized the need to exclude President Yoon from state administration immediately, including his authority over the military. 💥
\"We must stop further confusion,\" Han said. \"There is only one effective method now. In the next impeachment vote, our party's lawmakers should enter the assembly hall and take part based on their own conviction and conscience.\" 🗳️
The call for impeachment comes after President Yoon delivered a televised address justifying his highly controversial decision to declare martial law. Han criticized Yoon's unwillingness to resign early and demanded strong punishment for those involved in the \"unconstitutional and illegal\" declaration, including the president himself. 🚫
The People Power Party had initially hoped for President Yoon's voluntary resignation. However, with no progress made in persuading him, the party's leadership has shifted its stance toward supporting impeachment. The opposition parties plan to submit an impeachment motion later today and aim to put it to a vote on Saturday. 📆
This political drama unfolds as South Korea faces significant internal turmoil. The nation's youth and citizens are watching closely, hoping for stability and resolution. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story. 🎙️
