  • political power grows out of barrel of a gun like they say few borders north. it does make sense to make everyone participate, but it's always a tradeoff

  • i thought you're in similar timezone

    also, how far north of Seoul

  • Maybe he didn't? Power was on in parliament entire time, internet wasn't cut off, no curfew, no news stations takeover, you know things you can expect in a coup didn't happen

  • When HTS advance on the ground started he was in Moscow, and stayed there until two days later

  • Pedro Castillo was arrested by his own security detail, it's kinda hard to beat this. Hotdog man didn't even get within 200km of Moscow. You only get successful coups in Africa these days

  • i mean military just showed up, did absolute minimum just so that they can't be prosecuted for refusing orders, and when parliament voted martial law away some of them left (before being ordered so) then the rest left anyway. they knew what was going on and didn't want part in this

  • fire up reuters or ap, it's first page news

  • see, first person in korean timezone woke up. now they're gonna think it was all gigantic prank everyone around them is playing into

  • ok but PPP with 108 seats out of 300 somehow forms government, and not DPK with 170

  • Yoon cited a motion by the country's opposition Democratic Party, which has a majority in parliament

    hol up, just how this happens

  • Yonhap news agency cited the military as saying activities by parliament and political parties would be banned, and that media and publishers would be under the control of the martial law command.

    i see now, article was updated

  • can't they have a no-confidence vote?

  • world users not beating accussations of never reading linked article

  • Link shortener (not their own at least) is another massive red flag, same with typos ('number number' in page)

  • straight out of Local58

  • should be "warrior" there

    also in second block of text it should be "death" instead of "survival"

  • yeah how come 15+ side conflict working as proxy war for at least 5 external actors and going on for century doesn't come out orderly, outrage
