7:01 am
the i want to jones good to have you with us. south korea's president. you stuck your ways facing a 2nd to impeachment vote in parliament, thousands of his support as gathered in the south korean capitan sold to show their support for the president. he declared martial, earlier this month, plunging the country into chaos. the opposition defied security forces to overtime the decree, please say they are expecting at least 200000 people at a rally calling for use removal. i'm from or i'm now joined by 5. you and catch my a journalist reporting from sol fabia. and so june is facing a 2nd to impeachment, vote in parliament shortly in about an hour. what's the likely outcome of
7:02 am
the so i would say it's rather likely that the motion will be successful and for it to be successful it needs the majority of 2 thirds of the law make us will vote in favor of it. that means $200.00 out of $300.00 law make us have to vote and save all of it. and 190. 2 lawmakers already belong to the separate opposition parties, and they are clearly in favor of that impeachment, motions and 7 lawmakers of the ruling party have also publicly voice the support of this impeachment motion. so technically this only one vote left that is needed for the motion to be successful. and i think that is the most likely scenario that actually the impeachment motion will reach the to the majority in one hour. uh we, we also just had to that the soul is uh, pretty much jam packed uh, with the support as of the president, but also those one to him, out of office who's going to have the, the upper hand. i mean,
7:03 am
if he's impeached up what's going to happen yeah, so temporarily he looses power and the prime minister will replace him. but actually, that is not the final decision to impeachment decision will be made by the prosecution . and at least according to the experience when the last time when that happened, it took a lot of, i mean, several months. so it is not a decision that will be made tomorrow in the coming week. but will it take a lot of investigations in the final decision, whether you're a subject will be in peace or not, then would have to be both probably take place in the coming year early early next? yeah. right. well he's, he's the president, june, has so far roommates defiance. he said that he'll fight until the end. how helpful is this position saying? well actually um when he made that speech that he will fight till the end that really and rates a lot of south koreans and right off of the that was
7:04 am
a popularity or like a like a survey and his rating was only 11 percent. that's really a record low, and he really lost the support of the public every day since his really controversial decision to impose master law that has been a protest against him. and the number of people who took to the streets is really, it has really increased by the day. and also among the major newspapers, they all want him out of office. the civil society seems very, are outraged by the decision of presidents youtube, your to even defend his decision to impose master law. so he's really politically isolated and really against the back of the board on talking briefly if you what, uh, will this uh, situation those events will they need a mock on south korea society yeah, definitely. so, i mean, the change that it has on south career is still ongoing, but they're basically toner, right? if and the people are really shocked how french or democracy can be and how things
7:05 am
that have been taken for granted can change because the decision to impose boss of law, basically a bulk stock memory, see it in south korea that memories of a past during which many to which the dictators have government, and that is a posit. many people thought the country has already left behind. but on the other hand, there's also a more positive change that and because the crisis has shown how a lot the civil society is, how a lot the population is, how people can unite and when it really democracy is at stake. but then there's also a 3rd dimension, and that is the, the view from the investors and also the companies because they've also been quite shocked by the decision to impose them usher law. and they are also right now very cautious. okay, probably, and customer that reporting from so finance, thank you so much and to syria now where mass celebrations have taken place across the country to mock the 1st from day pres,
7:06 am
since the fall of the brutal assault and dictatorship, the ruins of setting years of conflict have not yet begun to shield in the country of the brutal tools of to renee, have given way to songs of hope on the 3 starved flag of a new syria. the. the, this is city is 3rd city homes here and all across the country. thousands turned out to mock the friday of victory the jubilant that more than half a century activity under the asset class has ended. problems became known as the capital of the city and revolution, as one of the 1st cities devise up against the regime in the civil war began in 2011. but there was a price. i misplaced the clock tower square held special significance in april 2011 security forces, open fire, and demonstrate just killing at least $21.00. a lot of people died in this class.
7:07 am
this is the protest to the account, believe that the dictator has full and i never believe this, they would call and well, i just wish i had the right thing, the liberation of homes. it's been a great day. i met people, i haven't seen how 13 years you know what a baby and i like when we were away from homes. it was really difficult. we would displace and it was hard to dream of returning. but we had faith in god and they did not disappoint us. a lot of the mean must say you have not. the celebrations of tinge with sadness for those who were killed. those whose whereabouts are known as with celebration victories, but so much is missing. my father is still missing, despite this victory was still the know with main is a time. these are not on a thought city a has indeed so much in recent years on this friday of victory. many will have been
7:08 am
trying that this next chapter in its history is one of peace and unity. the or for more i'm now joined by the w. stella may not who is in the mass cause stand up what people they're telling you about how they see their lives changing, often sense full well the people here told me that's 1st the full, their freedom has changed massively. we're just seeing the images of the mass of celebrations yesterday, and i myself has been c o i yep. square, which is a massive square in damascus. it was packed by people and many of them told me it's the 1st time, but they are getting back to this square of to use and yours. uh, the square was also quite important during the revolution. so people are very, really happy that they are and out to protest demonstrate together. again,
7:09 am
that was to say that in order says they have more freedom when it comes to freedom of speech. they can say their opinion again, they feel at least a freeze to do that, and most of them are not true scarce. it also comes to the language they're using many words even weren't allowed to use uh, under the esop regime dollar for example. so if people want us to talk about the dollar, then they have to use and come up with the names. same as the word with us, which is the, the aerobic word for president on top of us, which is the worst for a secret service. stella, the assign to regime is history is gone, but the most dominant force in syria now is the strongest h t s rebels group, which is classed as a terrorist organization by the united nations. doing locals have any concerns about what this could mean for them and their safety moving forward. and it depends a little bit to whom you speak. um, most people here at least the ones. uh,
7:10 am
i spoken to just the they at the protest. they really want to hope that the future is looking better and they want to be lease the promises by h t as a but they will ground rights for everyone and that they will push for a more moderate style of politics. but of course, there are some people who are worried and concerned as well. so some of them of minority groups. for example, the christians, i'm standing here in a, an area that is mainly inhabited by christians. i'm here some people told me that there were very scared that they will lose their rights and that they will soon not be able to to just be christians, grades, churches, and do what they want it to do. um yeah, but this, these are any, some people and i also spoke to some people who told me, well, we're bit concerned about as you know, on his pause because he has been, was call you to and maybe we don't know if it's going to be best to have it just
7:11 am

7:12 am
office, when he lost a confidence about it was a lavish tradition. no, sir, i'm an easy person but not to read one of these days. calls while i by who became friends, is full prime minister this year. it was the 2025 frontier that broke the last government down. you as a quote to city gets to, i believe the issue, a state borrowing and debt is also a moral one who's informed that it's not just a financial issue. no season with the french political landscape split 3 ways back home defied cools from the far left and far right policies to a point. one of the number preferring to name someone from his own centers to come an n p for a mac homes really nice on spotty, said the only criteria and should be what's best for friends and it's people supposed it was all nice thing. we need to start making out the parliament, revolves around the right wing or socialist policies. it's clear that if you leave
7:13 am
out the fall, right, i'm far left. that's a pos way open to negotiate the national assembly, the political landscape, and the pos is that of working for the french and before the french, even each month for the policy. but on hearing of microns new choice to had his cabinet. these people on the streets, when not convinced by his appointment, will break the political deadlock in front of his hands with him on honestly it's really nothing when you sit, if you're there, since you're here. now it really seems like it's the old name is being brought back . it's super disappointing because we really expected something different from the president too, rather than putting a series of old men at the head of the french government. so yes, it's a big disappointment. so we can cause the sip, so i switch the, let's hope that we can get a government that less than can respond to the expectation of the french people. would perhaps a little more serenity, i think would be a good thing to vote for francis constitution fans fresh elections within one year
