In addition, opposition parties, including the Democratic Party of Korea, voted alone by the National Assembly Steering Committee to add a schedule for the plenary session for the emergency martial law situation.
Earlier, the leaders of the ruling and opposition parties agreed to hold a plenary session on the 26th and 31st, and the opposition party added the schedule of the plenary session on the 27th and 30th, and the 2nd and 3rd of next month with the sole decision of the steering committee.
The Democratic Party of Korea has left open the possibility that acting President Han Deok-soo will vote on the impeachment motion at the additional plenary session unless he promulgates the independent counsel and Kim Gun-hee's independent counsel law by tomorrow (24th).
On the other hand, he did not attend the steering committee meeting itself, saying that the power of the people is the unilateral progress of the Democratic Party.
The ruling party says that even if the schedule of the plenary session is additionally decided by the steering committee, the National Assembly Speaker has the authority to make the final decision, and the interpellation session is also inappropriate as it has already asked pending questions related to martial law.
