South Korean opposition leader says Yoon poses high risk of military conflict with North Korea

Leader of South Korea's Democratic Party of Korea, Lee Jae-myung, said on Wednesday (December 4) that president Yoon Suk Yeol poses a high risk of provoking North Korea into military conflict and has a significant chance to declare martial law again. Hundreds of opposition lawmakers and party members gathered in front of the National Assembly on Wednesday to call for the resignation and impeachment of president Yoon. "They will try it (martial law) again by addressing their shortcomings after they have failed once," said Lee. "The risk of provoking North Korea and eventually leading to military conflict is significantly high. Yoon declared martial law in a live TV address late on Tuesday (November 4) night, only to reverse course six hours later after parliament defied police and special forces cordons to vote to block the move. Six South Korean opposition parties planned to submit a bill early on Wednesday afternoon calling for Yoon's impeachment, Seoul's Yonhap News Agency reported. A vote on the bill may be held on Dec 6 or 7, Yonhap added.
