#GeopoliticalFrontiers A political #crisis has sprung in #SouthKorea 🇰🇷 after its president Yoon Suk Yeol imposed and then lifted an emergency #martiallaw declaration. #WorthKnowing The decree 📜 was announced yesterday during an unscheduled address and was motivated by the fact that parliamentary opposition would paralyse the country by blocking the approval of the #budgetlaw, would sympathise with #NorthKorea 🇰🇵 and pursue anti-state activities. This unleashed scattered protests 🪧 across the country. The Korean parliamentary assembly voted 🗳️ unanimously against the decree even if only 190 members out of 300 attended the session,and Yoon Suk Yeol was forced to lift the declaration, leaving the country and the international community with no clue on what can happen now. #WhyIsItImportant South Korea 🇰🇷 already went through dictatorship but it is now considered a democracy and a fundamental partner for the United States 🇺🇸. Social protests 🪧 have taken place in the latest months showing a growing discontent with government’s policies. Is it the end of a peaceful and democratic Korea? What impact will it have in the future?
