Seoul, South Korea — In a bold political move, South Korea’s main opposition Democratic Party has submitted an impeachment motion against Prime Minister Han Duck-soo. The motion was reported to the National Assembly’s plenary session on Thursday, as announced by the party’s floor leader.
This development marks a significant escalation in the nation’s political dynamics, highlighting the deepening divisions between the ruling government and opposition forces. The Democratic Party’s decision to pursue impeachment proceedings underscores their growing concerns over the Prime Minister’s leadership.
The impeachment motion now awaits deliberation in the National Assembly, where lawmakers will assess its merits. The process could lead to a parliamentary vote, potentially resulting in the Prime Minister’s removal from office if the motion gains sufficient support.
Citizens and political analysts are closely monitoring the situation, recognizing its potential impact on South Korea’s governance and policy direction. The unfolding events are poised to shape the country’s political landscape in the coming weeks.
