South Korea's Yoon removed from office over martial law, election looms
South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol was ousted on Friday by the Constitutional Court, ushering in an election after it upheld parliament’s impeachment over his imposition of martial law that sparked the nation’s worst political crisis in decades.
The unanimous ruling caps months of political turmoil that have overshadowed efforts to deal with the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump at a time of slowing growth in Asia’s fourth-largest economy.
