Coup d'état: South Korea has imposed and lifted martial law

Military vehicles have appeared on the streets of Seoul

President Yun Seok-yol of the Republic of Korea declared martial law in the country on December 3. The reason given was the threat of power paralysis due to attempts to conduct impeachment proceedings. Commander of the emergency regime, Chief of Staff of the Ground Forces Park Ahn Soo noted that the activities of the Parliament, political parties and associations in South Korea are prohibited until the martial law is lifted. Military equipment was brought to the streets of the capital Seoul.

Later in the day, the South Korean government voted in favor of lifting martial law in the country. After that, South Korean President Yun Seok-yol canceled the emergency gathering of servicemen and sent those who arrived for the draft back.

In turn, the opposition party of South Korea demanded the resignation of the President of the country Yun Seok-yol, and also declared its intention to accuse him of treason.

At the same time it became known that all heads of the administration of the President of South Korea, as well as senior secretaries resigned. In addition, the trade unions of South Korea announced a general strike.
