S. Korea opposition votes to seek Park’s impeachment
South Korea’s main opposition party voted Monday to seek the impeachment of President Park Geun-hye after prosecutors named her a criminal suspect in a snowballing corruption case.
It remains unclear exactly when Park’s opponents will formally try to start the process, a difficult and lengthy one with no guarantee about the outcome.

Members of the Democratic Party voted unanimously in favor of seeking Park’s impeachment and setting up a working group to review related legal issues.

Two smaller opposition parties have already said they will seek to remove Park.

Some members of the president’s ruling conservative party have come out in favor of impeachment.
