SOUTH KOREA’S YOON FACES IMPEACHMENT TRIAL AT TOP COURT – The Court will decide whether to remove him from office permanently or reinstate him
South Korea’s President Yoon Suk Yeol appeared at the country’s Constitutional Court for his impeachment trial which has entered its final phase.
The court is reviewing parliament’s impeachment of Yoon on December 14 and will decide whether to remove him from office permanently or reinstate him.
Greeted by a barrage of camera flashes as he walked into the courtroom on Thursday, Yoon calmly walked over to the defence’s seat before proceedings began.
The court will hear witnesses testify, including Prime Minister Han Duck-soo later on Thursday.
