South Korea’s Constitutional Court Rejects Impeachment of Prime Minister Han Duck-soo

The Constitutional Court of South Korea has made a significant decision by rejecting the impeachment of Prime Minister Han Duck-soo on March 24, 2025. The ruling came after the opposition-controlled National Assembly had moved to impeach Han over allegations of power abuse and misconduct in handling national affairs.

The court's decision was based on the lack of sufficient evidence to support the claims against Han, marking a pivotal moment in South Korean politics. The ruling has been met with mixed reactions; supporters of the prime minister view it as a vindication, while critics argue that it reflects a failure to hold leaders accountable.

This decision underscores the ongoing political tension in South Korea, where the balance of power between the legislative and executive branches remains a contentious issue. The outcome of this case could influence the political landscape ahead of upcoming elections and further shape the nation's approach to governance and accountability.
