Let me connect you to the National Assembly. Reporter Lee Junyeop!

Please tell me the details of the impeachment bill, the prospect of the vote, and the details.

[Reporter]
Han Deok-soo's impeachment motion, proposed by the Democratic Party, is the first in constitutional history to impeach the acting president.

There are six major reasons for impeachment.

President Yoon repeatedly exercised his right to demand reconsideration, or veto, in the Kim Gun-hee Special Prosecutor Act and the Chae Sang-byung Special Prosecutor Act,

There are suspicions of conspiring, condoning, or assisting President Yoon's act of emergency martial law and rebellion,
The announcement of a system of 'joint state administration' with former representative Han Dong-hoon after the
martial law,
He cited that the fact that he avoided the process of appointing a permanent special prosecutor in the
rebellion and virtually refused to appoint a constitutional judge was unconstitutional and illegal.

If the impeachment bill is not voted on within 24 hours of reporting and 72 hours, it will be discarded.

The report was made at around 2 p.m. at the plenary session of the National Assembly, and National Assembly Speaker Woo Won-sik, who holds the authority to convene the plenary session, also decided to hold the plenary session tomorrow, so a vote is expected as early as tomorrow.

In addition, the ruling party claims more than 200 people applied to the president and the opposition party claims more than 151 people applied to the prime minister as quorum for voting on the impeachment bill.

There were not many predictions that the impeachment motion would take place today in the first place, but why was it brought forward?

[Reporter]
Yes, the Democratic Party originally planned to wait until tomorrow morning to see whether Han will be appointed as a constitutional judge and decide on the impeachment motion.

However, the atmosphere changed rapidly as acting Han repeatedly demanded an agreement between the ruling and opposition parties on the appointment of a constitutional judge through a public statement.

At the Democratic Party's general meeting held at the same time, a furious backlash was reported, and after the parliamentary meeting, floor leader Park Chan-dae immediately announced the motion for the impeachment of Han.Floor leader

Park strongly criticized the statement as acknowledging that he was not an acting president, but an acting president for civil war.

[Park Chan-dae / Minjoo Party floor leader: It has become clear that he is a key and major mission worker in the civil war. It also became clear what caused the incomprehensible behavior that had been shown since the impeachment of Yoon Suk Yeol.]

On the other hand, the People's Power criticized the Democratic Party's impeachment as a "Korea discount" that destroys international trust by causing a security vacuum and economic uncertainty.

The Democratic Party of Korea has set the day that it is engaged in civil war politics, calling it a hasty impeachment, retaliatory impeachment, and power deprivation impeachment.

[Kwon Seong-dong / People's Power Floor Leader: There is only one reason why the Democratic Party of Korea is attacking the impeachment bill despite the destruction of the state administration, but it is calculated to cover up the judicial risks of Chairman Lee Jae-myung with the early presidential election]

Please also explain what happened to the process of appointing a constitutional judge that triggered the impeachment motion.

[Reporter]
At the plenary session of the National Assembly, the motion to appoint Ma Eun-hyuk and Chung Gye-sun, the constitutional judges recommended by the Democratic Party, and Cho Han-chang, recommended by the People's Power, were all passed.

As the motion to appoint constitutional judges was passed with a majority of the members present, the opposition party, which took the majority of seats, was able to handle it alone.

In the case of the power of the people who did not attend from the confirmation hearing stage, Han said earlier that he would not participate in the plenary session's vote at all, saying he had no right to appoint.

However, lawmakers Cho Kyung-tae, Kim Ye-ji, Kim Sang-wook, and Han Ji-ah attended the vote in protest of their decision not to attend.

In fact, in the case of candidates Ma Eun-hyuk and Jung Chi-seon, they received 193 votes in favor of the nomination, more than 192 seats in the pan-opposition, and 195 people participated in the anonymous vote on the appointment agreement.

After the vote, National Assembly Speaker Woo Won-sik criticized Han, saying that delays or refusal of appointments to constitutional judges elected by the National Assembly are unjustifiable.

Amid the intensifying confrontation between the ruling and opposition parties, today's plenary session also dealt with more than 20 of the bills for people's livelihood agreed upon by the ruling and opposition policy committee heads.

So far, I've delivered it to you by the National Assembly.
