South Korea's Yoon defies second summons over martial law decree

^{Published on 2024-12-25 20:41:03 - MSN}

Embattled leader fails to appear for questioning over short-lived declaration of martial law for second time in a week.

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol has defied a second summons by the opposition-led parliament to testify regarding a military document that suggested imposing martial law during a potential crisis. The document, which surfaced in 1988, was allegedly drafted when Yoon was a young prosecutor. The opposition Democratic Party has accused Yoon of being involved in its creation, a claim he denies, asserting that the document was fabricated. Yoon's refusal to appear before parliament has escalated tensions, with the opposition threatening to hold him accountable for contempt of parliament. This situation has further deepened the political divide in South Korea, with Yoon's office criticizing the summons as an attempt to undermine his administration. Meanwhile, the ruling People Power Party has dismissed the allegations as baseless, intensifying the political standoff.
