South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol Removed Following Impeachment

South Korea's Constitutional Court has unanimously upheld the impeachment of President Yoon Suk Yeol, leading to his removal from office due to his unconstitutional declaration of martial law and deployment of military forces to obstruct parliament. The court ruled that Yoon's actions posed a significant threat to democracy and violated the principles of the rule of law. Following the ruling, a new presidential election must be held within 60 days, with Prime Minister Han Duck-soo reinstated as acting president. Yoon, who has faced severe backlash and was accused of attempting a coup, has denied the charges and described the court's decision as politically motivated. The ruling has been met with mixed reactions, with opposition lawmakers celebrating it as a historic victory. Yoon's actions and subsequent removal mark a significant moment in South Korean politics, highlighting the fragility of democratic governance.
