Samsung Group Union Solidarity Political Declaration "Yoon's Clear Treason... Impeachment and Immediate Arrest Required"
The Samsung Group Labor Union Solidarity, part of the National Metalworkers' Union Federation with participation from 11 Samsung affiliates, issued a political statement calling for the resignation of President Yoon Seok-yeol in relation to the 'December 3 Emergency Martial Law Incident.'
On the 13th, Samsung Solidarity stated in their political statement, "Yoon Seok-yeol, the head of the executive branch, which is only one of the three pillars of state power, used public authority such as the military and police under his command to invade the legislative body and block members of the National Assembly from entering, thereby nullifying the authority to lift martial law." They added, "This clearly constitutes the crime of rebellion." They further said, "This is an unconstitutional act that directly contradicts the principle of separation of powers as defined by the Constitution and an act of rebellion aimed at permanent dictatorship."
Samsung Solidarity said, "Yoon Seok-yeol shows no remorse and has not stepped down from the presidency," adding, "We cannot dismiss the suspicion that Yoon is plotting a second martial law while not in a sound state of mind, which could lead to another national chaos and economic crisis, creating a very dangerous national situation."
Samsung Solidarity urged the National Assembly, police, the Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials, prosecution investigative agencies, the Constitutional Court, and the judiciary to ▲ urgently arrest President Yoon Seok-yeol ▲ exclude the prosecution, which has lost public trust, from investigations ▲ have the ruling party accept the will of the people and pass the impeachment motion ▲ have the Constitutional Court promptly proceed with the impeachment trial ▲ immediately arrest and detain Kim Moon-soo, Minister of Employment and Labor, who is the only one in the National Assembly refusing to apologize and making inciting statements of rebellion.
Samsung Solidarity is the largest union within Samsung, united by the Samsung Display, Samsung SDI Ulsan, National Samsung Electronics Service, Samsung Life Insurance, Samsung Life Service, Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance Anycar Claims Service, Samsung Card Customer Service, Samsung Welstory, Samsung S-1 Participation, and Samsung E&A &U (Enyu) unions.
Earlier, the National Samsung Electronics Labor Union (Jeonsamno) also announced on the 11th via their website statement, "Jeonsamno will join forces with democratic citizens and workers resisting the outrage and fight against this anti-democratic martial law regime, and clearly states its solidarity in the impeachment struggle against Yoon Seok-yeol," announcing their participation in rallies calling for President Yoon Seok-yeol's resignation.
