South Korean Parliament Revokes Martial Law Declaration

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol declared martial law on December 3, marking a significant political crisis as the country faces its first military rule in over four decades. In response, South Korea's parliament convened an emergency session and voted unanimously to revoke the martial law declaration, deeming it unconstitutional. Yoon justified the emergency measures by accusing the opposition of anti-state activities, but this sparked backlash and concerns over democratic integrity. Protests erupted in Seoul, with demonstrators criticizing the government's actions and calling for a return to democratic norms. The U.S. expressed grave concern over the developments, emphasizing the need for peaceful resolution. The political turmoil raises questions about the stability of Yoon's administration and future governance in South Korea.
