THE SENATOR CALLS FOR THE IMPEACHMENT OF THE SOUTH KOREAN PRESIDENT

"If President Yoon does not comply with the resolution passed by the National Assembly, this will be an act of law violation and treason," said Senator Cho Kuk, who was a former Minister of Justice and presidential aide in charge of civil affairs.

According to Mr. Cho, President Yoon "declared illegal martial law and this is grounds for impeachment." This senator stated that this is a "national crisis" and urged prosecutors to arrest Mr. Yoon and Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun immediately.
