00:00
South Korean President Yun Suk-yeol revoked the martial law in the country after he disowned
00:06
the parliament accusing opposition lawmakers of alleged anti-state activities plotting
00:11
rebellion.
00:12
According to local media, the end of this measure was officially formalized after the
00:17
government approved its lifting, following a meeting with military commanders involved
00:22
in the enactment of the martial law.
00:25
The South Korean President also stated that troops have already been withdrawn from the
00:30
streets and that activities will return to normal.
00:33
It is worth noting that the imposition of the law followed the approval of a budget
00:38
reduction reform and a motion of censure of the Attorney General by the opposition Democratic
00:45
Party, measures that were described by the President as pro-North Korea.
00:51
Dear respected citizens, Last night at 11 p.m., I declared a martial
01:00
law with a resolute determination to protect the country from anti-state forces that were
01:05
attempting to paralyze the essential functions of the state and collapse the constitutional
01:09
order of liberal democracy.
01:11
However, just a moment ago, the parliament demanded the lifting of the martial law, so
01:16
I have ordered the withdrawal of the military forces deployed for this purpose.
