President Yoon Suk Yeol said he also withdrew martial law troops early this morning, six hours after the announcement of the emergency martial law, saying he would lift martial law in response to the National Assembly's demand for it to be lifted.

He said he declared martial law with a determined will to save the country and asked the National Assembly to immediately stop impeachment, legislation, and budget manipulation.

Let's listen directly to President Yoon's announcement.

[Yoon Suk Yeol / President]
My fellow citizens. As of 11 o'clock last night, I declared emergency martial law with the will of the rescue, determined against the anti-state forces that want to paralyze the essential functions of the state and collapse the liberal democratic constitutional order.

However, a while ago, the National Assembly demanded the martial law be lifted, so the military that was put into martial law affairs was withdrawn. We will lift martial law by accepting the demands of the National Assembly through a Cabinet meeting. However, we immediately convened a cabinet meeting, but since it is dawn, the decision quorum has not been met yet, so we will lift martial law as soon as we come.

However, I ask the National Assembly to immediately stop the atrocities of paralyzing the function of the state through repeated impeachment, legislative and budgetary manipulation. Thank you.
