Omar’s Statement on South Korea President Declaring Martial Law | 2024-12-03 | 2024 | 2024-12 | Democrat | House | MN | Ilhan Omar | O000173 | omar.house.gov | omar | https://omar.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON—Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-MN) released the following statement following South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol’s declaration of martial law. “South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol is plunging his country into chaos to cling onto power at the expense of South Koreans. There is no doubt that President Yoon Suk Yeol's decision is a direct attack on human rights and an attempt to violently suppress opposition. We must condemn President Yoon Suk Yeol’s actions unequivocally and stand firmly on the side of protesters fighting for their constitutionally guaranteed rights. This decision echoes one of the darkest chapters in South Korea’s history. To secure a brighter future for the people of South Korea, we must ensure democratic norms and essential human rights are respected.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T22:13:55Z |
