Yoon defends decree
Manchester Evening News|December 13, 2024
SOUTH Korea's President Yoon Suk Yeol yesterday defended his martial law decree as an act of governance and denied rebellion charges, vowing to "fight to the end" in response to attempts to impeach him.

The main opposition Democratic Party quickly slammed Mr Yoon's speech as "an expression of extreme delusion" and "false propaganda" Later, the Democratic Party and other opposition parties submitted a new impeachment motion against Mr Yoon, for a vote this weekend.

The opposition-controlled parliament also passed motions yesterday to impeach and suspend Mr Yoon's police chief and justice minister over the imposition of martial law, escalating the pressure on Mr Yoon's embattled government.
