On the 8th, Han said on his social media that the Democratic Party of Korea is threatening the people with a cut in the budget.
Earlier that day, the special budget committee members, including Chairman Park Gyeol of the special budget committee, who are members of the Democratic Party, said at a press conference in the National Assembly, "There will be no discussion on the budget bill without the impeachment of President Yoon.
"Whether President Yoon resigns or is impeached, the correct order is to discuss the budget after the anti-constitutional elements are resolved," he said.
If they don't do so, we will pass the budget cut bill on the 10th, as set by National Assembly Speaker Woo Won-sik," he added. Han added, "We are using the confirmation of the budget cut bill as a means of intimidation."
"What this means is that the Democratic Party of Korea is admitting that the budget proposal that it made with cuts was wrong," he said. On the 29th of last month, the Democratic Party of Korea forced through a budget proposal for next year that only reflected the cuts made by the National Assembly.
He also demanded that the budget bill be submitted to the National Assembly plenary session on the 2nd, which was the legal deadline for processing the budget bill. Chairman Woo ordered that a draft agreement between the ruling and opposition parties be prepared by the 10th, and refrained from submitting the budget cut bill, but the following day,
Martial law was declared and all procedures were halted.
