South Korea’s main opposition party has decided not to impeach acting president Han Duck Soo, providing a critical lifeline to the country’s leadership amid continuing political upheaval over Yoon Suk Yeol’s short-lived declaration of martial law.
The news comes amid reports that Mr Yoon did not comply with a summons from prosecutors on Sunday. The authorities plan to issue another order as they investigate the martial law decree, the Yonhap news agency reported.
