South Korean Prime Minister Han Duck-soo was restored as acting president on Monday after the country’s constitutional court overturned the impeachment of the National Assembly.
The congress, after impeachment president Yoon Suk Yeol, who served as acting president of South Korea on December 14, suspended Mr Yoon’s mission involving his failure to put his country under martial arts. When the General Assembly blasted the Imp on December 27, Mr. Han served as acting president for less than two weeks, adding to political uncertainty in South Korea, a major ally of the United States.
The Constitutional Court has not announced when and when will rule whether to evict or reinstall Mr Yoon – South Koreans are increasingly anxious for weeks, and Koreans have been waiting. If Mr Yoon is removed from office, South Korea will elect a new president within 60 days. If he is recovered, he will return to the office to face a country that is more fractured than ever.
In South Korea, the Constitutional Court discusses whether the officials of the General Assembly impeachment should be formally deleted or reinstalled. Its ruling is effective immediately and cannot appeal.
Since Mr Han’s impeachment, Finance Minister Choi Sang-Mok is the next official in the government hierarchy and has been twice as much as the acting president.
When it blasted Mr. Han, the conference accused him of cooperating with Mr. Yoon’s declaration of illegal martial arts. It also said that Mr. Han violated his constitutional duties when he refused to appoint three judges of the Constitutional Court elected by parliament. Mr. Han denied the charges.
