South Korean Prime Minister Han Dac Soo as a prosecutor on Monday after the country’s constitutional court rejected the proposal approved by the National Assembly late last year.
Han was handed over to the country after lawmakers resided in conservative President Yun Suk Yol on December 14 because of his short declaration of martial law earlier in that month.
Although the advertisement was quickly transferred through a legislative vote, Yun has sent Special Forces soldiers to storm the National Association for National Elections and Elections, a law that opponents say is violating the country’s constitution.
But Han, who is not an elected official, soon faced accusations from the liberal opposition of the country that he was also complicit in declaring martial law-and he was shocked by filling in the critical vacancies in the country’s constitutional court by appointing three judges to be suitable for the National Assembly. Two of these vacancies were filled while Han was isolated and suspended.
At least six of the nine court judges must vote in favor of emphasizing Yun’s isolation, making Yun’s prolongation more likely if all the nine seats are occupied.
Since Han was removed and suspended on December 27, Finance Minister Choi Sang Mok has been working as a prosecutor.
On Monday, the Constitutional Court said that Han’s refusal to appoint the judges is unconstitutional, but it is not dangerous enough to justify the dismissal.
The Constitutional Court has not yet announced the time that it will control the isolation of Yun, who also faces charges of criminal rebellion. If his isolation is supported, the country will face 60 days to elect a new president.
The court’s deliberations over the overthrow of Yun have already exceeded those of other South Korean presidents who were isolated, who returned after 63 days and expelled after 91 days in a row.
For months, the leadership vacuum has worried that South Korea excels at the time of deep political turmoil and uncertainty, which are fueled by the Trump administration’s commercial wars and local party divisions that exaggerate it due to Yun’s isolation.
Many South Koreans are now describing their fears that Yoon may restore with a new metal currency: “insomnia”.
“Given that the entire country has seen his illegal and unconstitutional declaration of martial law on TV in an actual time, I cannot understand why Yoon’s trial takes a long time,” said Chun Hyun Joe, a 50 -year -old teacher.
“The stress I felt since the declaration of martial law may be the worst that I felt in my life.”
On his first day, he returns to work as a prosecutor on Monday, Han assured reporters that he would try to provide a fixed hand.
“I will make sure to take care of the most urgent things first,” he said.
“I think that the South Korean people look at the deep political scene, and they explain that” we should not do so. “
When asked if he would appoint the last remaining candidate for the Constitutional Court, where opposition lawmakers were calling, Han escaped in the question.
