South Korea’s president has declared an emergency martial law in the country, accusing opposition of anti-state activities.

President Yoon Suk Yeol said on Tuesday that he will rebuild a free and democratic country through the martial law.

“To safeguard a liberal South Korea from the threats posed by North Korea’s communist forces and to eliminate anti-state elements… I hereby declare emergency martial law,” Yoon said in a live televised address to the nation.

Yoon since taking office in 2022 had struggled to push his agendas against an opposition-controlled parliament.
