South Korea President Declares, Then Lifts Martial Law
South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol declared martial law on December 4, citing threats from North Korea and internal opposition, marking the first such decree since 1980. The announcement triggered widespread protests and a swift parliamentary response, leading to the order's reversal just six hours later. Critics accused Yoon of attempting a coup d'état amid political turmoil, as his administration faces strong opposition from the Democratic Party, which holds a majority in the National Assembly. The situation has heightened fears of authoritarianism in a country known for its democratic values, and public sentiment remains volatile. Following the reversal, protests erupted demanding Yoon’s resignation, with opposition parties moving to impeach him. This incident has raised significant concerns about the future of democracy in South Korea.
