Is Kim Jong-un polishing his reunification speech?
South Korean President Yoon deposed. The crisis in South Korea was triggered when Yoon Suk-yeol declared a state of emergency, citing threats from anti-state forces and North Korea.
It all led to a vote of no confidence in parliament where Yoon was impeached. In parallel with the completed impeachment process, a separate investigation is underway in which Yoon risks prosecution for sedition, a crime that can lead to life imprisonment or the death penalty.
One of the main opposition parties in the country, the Democratic Party, describes today's verdict as a "great victory for the people", reports the Yonhap news agency. Watch the feature on SVT News.
