Prospects for President Yoon's impeachment are dim with ruling party boycotting vote

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol faced an impeachment vote over his brief imposition of martial law. Ruling party lawmakers boycotted the vote, likely preventing the two-thirds majority needed for impeachment. Yoon apologized for the martial law decree, but protests demanding his removal continued nationwide. Opposition parties may resubmit the motion, deepening the political crisis.
