When debate began on the impeachment motion, opposition lawmakers recited the names of the PPP members who had left. Opposition leaders have said they would revisit the impeachment motion on Wednesday if it failed the first time. “I leave it up to my party to take steps to stabilise the political situation in the future, including the issue of my term in office,” Yoon said in the address to the nation, promising there would be no second attempt to impose martial law.
If Yoon leaves office before his single five-year term ends in May 2027, the constitution requires a presidential election to be held within 60 days upon his departure.
