According to the government, President Yoon Seok-yeol approved 21 laws and 21 enforcement decrees that were passed by the Cabinet Council on the 10th on the 12th. Normally, Cabinet Council items are approved by the president immediately after the Cabinet Council.
However, due to the state of emergency, the agenda items at this week's Cabinet meeting presided over by Prime Minister Han Deok-soo were not approved by the president for two days.
President Yoon Seok-yeol's approval of the Cabinet agenda on this day carries significant political implications.
In his address to the nation on the same day, President Yoon Seok-yeol said he would "fight alongside the people until the very last moment," refusing to step down.
This reversal of his previous statement to the nation on the 7th, which came just five days after he said he would leave the matter of future political stability, including the issue of my term, to my party (People Power).
In the political world, until the impeachment bill was passed by the National Assembly, President Yoon Seok-yeol had full presidential powers, including personnel decisions and the right to request a second vote (veto).
The National Assembly is scheduled to vote on the impeachment motion against President Yoon Seok-yeol at 5 pm on the 14th.
