Скачать или смотреть Gordon Chang Rallies Support for Yoon Amid Political Crisis

In a passionate speech delivered to conservative supporters in late 2025, prominent American foreign policy commentator Gordon G. Chang portrayed the ongoing political crisis surrounding former President Yoon Suk Yeol as a fundamental struggle between democracy and tyranny.

He praised street protesters braving cold weather to defend Yoon against what he described as leftist attempts to seize power through impeachment and removal, positioning them as civilization's "last line of defense" with divine backing.

Chang's remarks come a year after Yoon's December 2024 martial law declaration, which led to his swift impeachment and ongoing trials for insurrection.

While Yoon's supporters view the events as necessary to combat perceived electoral fraud and opposition overreach, critics and the current administration see them as an unconstitutional power grab.

Chang's international voice amplifies conservative narratives framing the fallout as an existential threat to freedom.

Such external perspectives highlight how South Korea's internal divisions have drawn global attention, influencing perceptions of its democratic resilience amid polarization.

If defending an elected president brings impeachment, trials, and crackdowns, is South Korea protecting democracy—or punishing those who challenge power?
