A South Korean court has reinstated the country’s impeached Prime Minister as the acting president, overturning the previous decision that removed him from office. The ruling comes amid a period of political instability, with supporters hailing the decision as a victory for due process, while critics argue it could deepen divisions.
The Prime Minister had been impeached over allegations of misconduct, but the court found procedural flaws in the process, leading to his reinstatement. His return to power is expected to have significant political implications as the country navigates ongoing leadership challenges.
Political analysts suggest the ruling could impact future governance decisions, with opposition figures calling for further legal scrutiny. The reinstated leader has pledged to focus on stability and governance while addressing concerns over his impeachment case.
