no one should have to shift the regimes loan times the force on the menu mckinnon. welcome to the program, opposition, policies and south korea has begun. impeachment proceedings against the president's off that he briefly imposed martial law. which effectively means military rule. you in foothill was forced to lift, it's just i was late that are off to resistance from lawmakers. so unanimously voted to reject the decisions that's look back on the events that have thrown south korea into its biggest crisis since it became a democracy in the 1980s. a bill of impeachment for south korea's president, opposition parties accuse you and sucky all of trying to stage an insurrection.

they say his declaration of martial law on tuesday is a criminal act. you and stuck your has done something crazy that violates the constitution. basically committed a crude, todd impeachment is not a choice anymore. it's a must citizens and opposition law makers gathered outside parliament, demanding his resignation. they warn he will go to great lengths to stay in power will come in time. there is a high possibility of him endangering people's lives by provoking north korea, causing chaos near the military denmark cation line, and in the end causing an armed clash. most of the prices are relatively tuesday when the president has suddenly announced he was imposing martial law, fighting threats from north korea and an anti state forces. part of women armed

troops swooped into the capital, sold soldiers in circle parliament, and try to enter the building. but protestors and law makers blocked their access and fought their way in parliament, then passed a unanimous motion demanding a martial law. it'd be lifted, you know what to do something good. i went ahead to hey, i'm good. okay. we can have hours later president unit did just that time, but the damage was done, though it was short lived in march. the 1st time the civilian government had been replaced by the military since south korea's dictatorship ended in the late 19 eighties. people are shaken by the events, and we don't like it was an experience that i've only seen in movies. and i realized how much more serious it is. then i had imagined some of the cold when i looked at the full man we on these how last night i happened to wake up from my

sleep and came across the news. at 1st i was scared and very confused. i kept thinking what is coming on? is this something that could actually happen in this era? do you see that they don't? most of the menu didn't go. critics accuse the president of attempting to tightened his grip on power, struggles to push through his agenda in the office in lead, parliament and impeachment requires backing from a majority of law makers and the constitutional court parliament is set to vote on the motion. and later this week, john les chewing hot pack is in sole, and updates has me on the latest the or well, there's a lot of fury on the ground. and thanks for having me. and there's a lot of fury on the ground from lawmakers from the public on what the decision of president june was to make sure that he declares martial law at 10 30

pm last night. it's still up in the air as to what he's actually planned up the p. p. the people, our party, the ruling power party and, and also the prime minister. and the chief of staff of both has all 3 have meant inside the presidential office with preston. you, the defense minister has attended his resignation as has the full cabinet of the south korean cabinets as well. and it's quite certain that the south pre impressed and right now there is quite a lot of and momentum that he will be impeached. very soon. the impatient bill, as i have heard from my sources, is that it has been submitted into the national assembly. it will be reported to the national assembly tomorrow morning and they will sold a plenary session within 24 hours. these are obviously extraordinary circumstances . i mean, south korean citizens haven't seen moscow loaded flat and move in full decades. can

you walk us through what this has been like for the people of south korea? how is they've been experiencing the past hours in? yeah, sure. i mean, uh, i was just at the protest just now a capital x digital just outside our office here in palm and in the city center. and does a lot of anger that has directed at the present and the presidential office for the decision to impose marshal on the citizens and the national assembly. yesterday, the citizens that i spoke to clearly stated that it was a breach on the basic human rights that democracy. they were quite well and good, but also very sad and sense of mental as well. uh, seeing is he just mentioned that it's been 40 plus years since a democratic ruler has declared that martial law against duplicate the citizens of speed. and they looked into were how because korea, the lawmakers that the citizens have voted in through

a democratic selection. and it's something i think we can understand the marshal law in our modern history has attained themselves as a kind of historical trauma. you know, we see marshall was imposed throughout the entire south tree and region when the palm to protests were going on in may 1980 the hundreds were killed in the city of counties during a military track down during the martial law period. and i think that is quite a rugged source of the historical trauma that is currently going around, well, not worldwide, but nationwide. if we could have a look at the reasons that he used to justify this, the president seemed to blame an empty state plots when he to come to class marshall. he accused the may know position policies of supporting at north korea.

is there any truth to that as well, quite frankly, know they opposition party, the reasons that he declared in his speech just yesterday when he was declaring the marshal law. and the reasoning that he gave was that it was for the budget constraints that were going on in the national assembly. and the president has quite excited that the opposition party has held the government's responsibilities or national responsibilities to help you with the budget constraints that are going on. um the company is accused of teaching the prosecutors, the state auditors as well. and so political reasons i'm calling them pro north korean forces and kind of imposing marshall is something that all of the experts that i've spoken to as well as the general public kind of stuff. you know, due to a 190 lawmakers, including several from the ruling people. powell policy versus unanimously didn't

like to nullify this an awful lot declaration. what does not say? it means it does not suggest that you know, this what is essentially a display of units that you just not suggest that democracy is actually alive and well in south korea. well, i think that the, you know, what, while we, we saw both sides of democracy yesterday try out all throughout the night and throughout tuesday morning as well. and the institutional democracy and the constitutional democracy that is, has been protected by the lawmakers and the citizens who are out in front of the national assembly yesterday has been indeed protected. the lawmakers did come together. 17 ruling people tell a party. lawmakers came together to join forces with the opposition party and notifying the martial law that was imposed. you was not quick to respond. however, he still has not apologized for the chaos that ensued in the national assembly and

also outside of the national assembly. it is still something that is ongoing. however, we are in for quite a busy number of this trend list, june hop park. thank you so much for you for your time today. a thank you. let's take a look now, some of the other stories making headlines around the world and then it'd be as elected, it's a female presidents election officials have declared that on the non they know that for when of the november the 27th selection technical glitch has led to 3 extra days of hosting with opposition policies rejecting the result when expense the ruling policies, especially for ya, griffin power. iran has released the nobel peace prize laureate, now guess more hummadi from prison notes, according to her lawyer who posted on social media that has sentence has been temporarily suspended on medical grounds. rights activists recently urged a release of to she underwent surgery to remove possible bono accounts. this is fis

pricing is being reported near the syrian city of hum, which rebel flights is wherever approaching until forces loyal to president bush on a side, launched a counter offensive view and says nearly 50000 people have been displaced and over 100 civilians killed in the recent facing rushes, i'm bassett, us in the united nations accused ukraine of aging syria and rebels. without providing any evidence. they launched a surprise offensive last week and continued to advance in the northern provinces of hama. and it lived, sorry, as ami come on says it's false is all striking back with russian ass supports, most goes saves. and syrian president, a shot aside from defeats in 2015, but himself is, are asking if russia is able to help him again, considering its own full scale invasion of the train, of the scenes of despair and 3 unfolding

northwest in syria as people trying to identify the dead after russian and syrian as strikes on it look provence most go has, once again deployed, it's will things to help syrian spinal assad put a stop to an offensive by rebel forces. it was russia's military intervention in 2015. that time the tide in us that's favor, the height of series will. back then must have ariel bombardments with what critics said was little regard for civilian life helped aside gain loss territory versus flooding me. a boots in claims have boosted his country. standing on the global stage by changing the costs of the conflict, aside with a few cents in his banks. but after what is being called a stone, a new pushed by rebel forces who quickly move to take over elect those international apple. it's unclear if russia will be able to help aside in the same

way and what this could mean. so the why the situation to one thing, russia is bogged down and ukraine into conflict. polluting has shown no signs of being prepared to end since he ordered its full scale invasion in 2022. moscow has said it continues to support the assad. but analysts say it's unlikely russia will be able to send reinforcements or the pro additional fire power. as all of his efforts are focused on winning the war in ukraine, prussian troops in syria, i never thought to have amounted to more than 5000 at any one time, is but report se sum was sent back to ukraine after february 2022. along with a number of will planes and long range missiles the syrian armies,

it's part saves, it'd be time and to defeat its opponents. but with questions surrounding rushes, contribution on the constantly shifting geo political situation. it's difficult to say when, oh, if it will achieve its aim. rushes, the war against ukraine has expanded to include thousands of north korean soldiers, hypotonic missiles, and suspected hybrid attacks on ukraine's allies. nato foreign ministers have been missing and brussels to discuss how best to respond to this escalation, which includes the suspect and suffering of communications cables on the baltic sea continuing support for ukraine on the blocks. preparations for the upcoming. donald trump presidency have dominated the tools as cross straight to brussels and get more from dw corresponding terry shields. terry? yeah. what all the main outcomes of this to day missing,

as well as you laid out there, there was really a full agenda, including a visit from king abdullah of jordan, to update foreign ministers on the situation in the middle east. but the main outcome, the main tangible outcome of this meeting is that foreign ministers agreed to step up their efforts to act in a proactive way to prevent and detour these hybrid attacks from russia. and that includes acts of sabotage and what the secretary general more crude to called energy blackmail. so what they've decided to do is, is increase their efforts to share intelligence across the alliance. that's really important. then it's difficult to do because basically some countries don't trust each other as as much as others as, as much as other countries. and so they've really got to work on this. the other thing they'll do is try to increase their surveillance of under see infrastructure . they're also going to crack down on rush a shadow fleet of a these and see where the tankers that are carrying oil in nato allies,

the territorial waters. and so they're an environmental danger, as well as putting money in moscow's pocket. so this is what market to said is really an important outcome of this meeting today. the foreign ministers were, of course, also discussing ukraine, the future of age, to ukraine and the bubble nato security guarantee. so did they make any new promises of support to keep? what, well, we heard that the dinner last night with the ukrainian foreign minister was quite heated at times, as they discussed off the record, what, what they could do. now ukraine's foreign minister came to this meeting saying that nothing other than ground in ukraine and invitation to join nato is acceptable. he says that his country security simply cannot be guaranteed by anything less. then article 5, which is of course, the collective security guarantees that all nato allies have, but that's a long way off for ukraine. countries just don't agree that you can offer an invitation to a country with a war raging on its territory. so basically what secretary general market does that

is that you know, what we really need to talk about is getting more weapons to ukraine. there are 40000000000 euros and assistance promised by the end of the year. they're also setting up this new command under nato, that is going to see to the logistics of getting the weapons that have been promised actually to delivery. and, and they're also going to be doing more training and coordinating the training of ukrainian soldiers. so basically the ukranian for administer left without any new promises and not what he really wanted, which was a time table for getting ukraine into nato dw correspondent terry schultz. terry, thank you so much. i was, we just had that from terry. nato has stopped short of offering you creighton membership in the alliance for the for civil future. but keeps west and allies continue to train volunteers. i'm conscripts as the country is facing down the much larger russian army dw use. rosie book shall i've got

a chance to witness how new ukrainian recruits. i've been prepared for the front lines in the u. k. these green pastors may look peaceful, but spaces upon to crush course in more fair. we're on our way to meet and to find out about ukrainian soldiers who are being trained here in the new case. we can't tell you exactly where we are for security reasons that we can't show any of the crating truth spaces. that's because we're told the 1st thing you did special recognition technology to try and identify and then target a few weeks ago, many of these men had never held the guns. they were ordinary ukrainians, caught up in a conflict. russia started now on british soil. they're being trained to kill last person. they came to kill us. we must loans killed the enemy. this is operation into flex a 5 weeks training program that transforms ukrainian civilians into soldiers. it's delivered by trainers from the u. k. and adults and other countries,

including canada, norway, and the netherlands in those states, basic infantry training can take up to a year and many volts or teenagers. but here, the average age is 35. these are men with mortgages, families and regular jobs facing a rapid gear shift, lima. and then you cool. i've never had to deal with physical exertion with a lot of the past work didn't involve any exercise experience and it's a bit challenging physically. but everything is okay. so let's go after i left some over some of the last clips. the hardest thing is knowing that my wife is very scared for me, right. that she is worried. i'm very afraid to be alone. i never left her for more than 2 or 3 days in my pastoral up in the principle of some of those delivering the training like vis ukrainian army psychologist has already seen active combat and to know all too well what lies ahead it's touch. see when the front yeah,

we've seen friends there. yeah. yeah. this less than a salty building infrastructure under fire. is one of these cohorts last for no, this is just a drill. the credit in your recruits are safe, and these are only blank roads, but in just a week or so, they'll be facing the real thing. some are already shipping out to the front line before departure, soldiers get a final briefing, a blast of their national anthem. and a donation to catch bag filled with everything from deodorant and boots, to live sydney equipment for battle injuries. the my single impulse that you're going to be looking at is the toner case of a safe cash perfectly back to the enemy from a mine like a bunch of wins, shrapnel, british army magic sergeant to mcdonald takes care of the final preparations. how do you feel when you wave them off? i mean, they're going to war. how can you want to that?

yeah, i'm going to and i safe one bed. i can go out for a weekend that they call the the, this is, they will, this is the country the day and they, there was no response on it. so if we can do anything to help them make their lives a bit easier or big betsel, a bit safer just for us to this program is funded until the end of 2025. after that, nobody knows. we're in such a time, both in the world and, and ukraine, that it's very difficult to land when it's on the date and any events. so we're focusing more on the present it. so, and for those here, that means focusing on their target and learning how when to pull the trigger. here's some of the other stories making headlines today. the philippines says a chinese coast guard ship hit, one of its patrol boats and disputed horses of the south china sea. it released the video showing the much larger chinese vessel scraping the bose and fire and was

a candidate communications antennas. china's coast guard plains, the philippine vessel, so coming too close to its own ship to thousands of georgians. have protested in front of parliament and the capital to police seats for 6. nice in a row. they're angry at the government stuffing tolts on george at joining the european union. right. please find horse a cannon and to gas. so the demonstrations who into launched fireworks at the offices in front of parliament is preparing for no confidence vote. that could out the prime minister, michelle to bonnie is government. the potential full of his 3 month old cabinets is set to defend from his political crisis. the country has been reeling from a polarizing election. they gave left as far right policies, most of the seats in parliament with his government on board time, the drum and trump slough shots returned to parliament. leah, to face questions in his opening remarks, he reiterated germany support for the defense of ukraine. source of the will

escalating into a direct confrontation between russia and the nato alliance. charles also stressed that ahead of elections due to be held in february. he won't flo make has to pos pressing legislation such as a wrench, comp for cash drops chem. and by those y'all had this phone interview monday, the database chief political editor. let me say, look, this now was in the german bonus tag, the german parliament incentives this assessment as well. let's put it this way. it's and it was question time and we have elections coming up in february here in germany. so every seeing, every political exchange has to be seen through that prism of aluminum election. and that's also what it felt like. what was interesting is that when i saw didn't use his time is introduction to recount his successes. instead, he tried to get the majority together for a couple of projects. you already mentioned some he would like to see voted through

parliament despite the fact that he currently only has a minority. now, it looks rather unlikely that he's going to get much agreement. that particular when it comes on the economy, that is his, i feel is here right now with a bad news coming in sick and fast. and most recently the no fault is spent, especially folding the attempt to actually have a strengthening of battery production here in europe. also to help the german electric car industry. so he was clearly on the defensive here and he said, what missed the opportunity to sprinkle in a few issues that he saw as successes. so what, what was the, the key issues that came up to them and what was it, the economy, or what was the other things? this to lots of great was the economy, but also foreign policy. he was asked once again about ukraine, whether he would consider sending more weapons. he was criticized for not sending

enough not sending heavy equipment heavy material fast enough. his counter argument is time and time again that germany is your strongest supporter of ukraine, both in monetary and military times. he also was asked about israel that he stood accused of not delivering enough munitions fast enough. that was something he could not be rejected simply being untrue. so that was kind of the level of exchange on foreign policy issues. although he also did face some criticism for somewhat of posting poland away from cooperating with germany, particularly on the issue of european security. he and says, the all good working relations with poland, despite the fact that the toast didn't invite him to his most recent around the strategic talks on security in the future, particularly in view of ukraine. that leaves or salts would still quite a few issues where he cannot give an answer because he really can't do

much with this current minority in parliament. that was the w as chief political edison mckayla. finally, a german couple has defended. it's rec, or so pushing out the largest number of decorated christmas trees in one place to my senses. i know you will mean have filled the home in north west germany with 605 christmas trees the season. that is 10 more than last year. the decorations included more than 800000 ornaments and 50000 lights. apparently the couple began guessing ready for christmas. back in june. this is a quick reminder about top stories today. opposition will make, has in south korea have launched impeachment proceedings against president used to kill us off the he impose marshall low on tuesday. i need to be over ruled by parliament a few hours later we thought time full but just say tunes coming

up next night. in germany, oscar it's a i will help or hinder us. at one i many kids in the can and thank you for watching video. he needs the,
