President Yoon's Impeachment Passed...Proceeding to Suspension of Duties After 949 Days in Office (Update)
The impeachment motion against President Yoon Suk-yeol was passed on the 14th. It has been 11 days since the declaration of martial law.
President Yoon's duties are expected to be suspended immediately upon delivery of the National Assembly's impeachment resolution to the Presidential Office.
Once President Yoon's duties are suspended, Prime Minister Han Duck-soo will act as the interim authority and manage state affairs.
This marks 949 days (about 2 years and 7 months) since President Yoon took office.
President Yoon will retain his position and privileges only until the Constitutional Court's impeachment trial process is completed.
