South Korea's Constitutional Court ousted the then President
KCNA noted that all eight judges of South Korea’s Constitutional Court voted to remove Yoon from office, and also said that major foreign media outlets urgently reported on the ruling.
Yoon took a hard line on North Korea and was often the subject of criticism from Pyongyang. During his short presidency, North Korea changed its decades-long policy of unification with the South and changed its constitution to designate it the “principal enemy”. REUTERS
