In a significant political development, South Korean Prime Minister Han Duck-soo has accepted personal responsibility for not averting the recent declaration of emergency martial law by President Yoon Suk Yeol. This candid admission highlights the gravity of the decision faced by the nation's leadership.
Last week, President Yoon Suk Yeol declared martial law, a move that drew considerable debate and public scrutiny. However, the martial law was revoked just six hours after its imposition, following a decisive parliamentary vote against it.
This incident marks a critical moment in South Korea's political landscape, with leaders contemplating the implications of their actions and decisions on democratic governance.
