President Yoon Suk-yeol’s potential veto of marine death probe bill may exacerbate divide with opposition
Recent legislative developments in South Korea, including the passage of the Itaewon disaster bill and the approval of a special probe into a marine’s death, have escalated tensions between President Yoon Suk-yeol and the main opposition Democratic Party (DP).
Experts warn that these events may deepen political divides and exacerbate the volatile political landscape of the upcoming 22nd National Assembly, particularly if Yoon wields his veto power to continue to oppose bills that the DP deems necessary.
