South Korea's Yoon Suk Yeol Faces Impeachment Efforts

News summary

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol is facing a political crisis following his controversial declaration of martial law, which he later rescinded. The ruling People Power Party (PPP) has shifted its stance and now supports impeachment efforts against Yoon, driven by internal dissent and growing public outrage. The opposition Democratic Party is preparing a new impeachment motion, with a vote expected soon, as Yoon's political authority wanes. Yoon has attempted to justify his actions, claiming North Korea interfered in the election, but his defiance has alienated many within his own party. Recent developments indicate that at least seven PPP members are ready to back impeachment, increasing pressure on Yoon as the political landscape becomes increasingly tumultuous. The situation raises critical questions about South Korea's commitment to democracy, echoing historical challenges faced by the nation.
