The dismissed South Korean President Jun Sok-Jun Sok was justified by the South Korean citizens on Friday in response to the Constitutional Court’s verdict for not fulfilling the public expectations. Juna dismissed the country’s Constitutional Court on Friday night for the last year’s statement of martial law. According to Jonhap and AFP, TASR reports this.
“I’m really sorry and I have a broken heart from being unable to meet your expectations,” He stated in a short statement published by his lawyers a few hours after the court had announced his unanimous verdict. “It was the greatest honor for me to serve our country. I am honestly grateful to you for your unwavering support and encouragement, even if I have not fulfilled expectations,” He added the ex -president, who performed the function since May 2022.
The dismissal of Juna on Friday was welcomed by the leader of the opposition and ČE-MJong. Jun “destroyed the constitution and threatened people and democracy with weapons and knives entrusted to him by people”, He said, who, according to surveys, is a favorite of the following presidential elections. They must take place within 60 days.
The martial law was declared by Jun Sok-Jol on December 3 last year, thus caused a political crisis in the country. After a few hours, his decision was canceled by Parliament, which subsequently suspended the exercise of the presidential powers and initiated the constitutional process of dismissing the head of state.
A judge after the verdict has declared that The introduction of martial law “damaged the fundamental political rights of people”. He also declared that it violated the principles of the rule of law and democracy. The declaration of martial law according to the court’s decision was not justified by the national crisis and Jun violated the law when he sent soldiers to the National Assembly to prevent the abolition of martial law.
