Prime Minister of South Korea

South Korea's opposition-controlled parliament introduced an impeachment motion on Dec. 8 against President Park Geun-hye, setting up a likely vote today on whether to suspend her powers over a huge political scandal.

South Korean President Park Geun-Hye replaced her prime minister and finance minister Nov. 2, as she scrambled to contain a damaging scandal over a close friend accused of meddling in state affairs.

The top-level reshuffle, which also saw a new public safety minister, was the latest attempt to appease growing public anger with the president and her administration.

Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic has authorized Finance Minister Dusan Vujovic to perform the duties of the defense minister until a new one has been elected.

Earlier on Saturday, Vucic signed a proposal to dismiss Defense Minister Bratislav Gasic and sent it to the National Assembly, his cabinet confirmed.

South Korean President Park Geun-Hye on May 21 selected her justice minister to become the new prime minister -- a post that has become something of a poisoned chalice under her administration.

South Korean President Park Geun-hye accepted on Monday the resignation of Prime Minister Lee Wan-koo, who had been accused of bribery.

Lee Wan-koo, who had been in office for slightly over two months, became the shortest serving prime minister of South Korea since the country became democratic in the late 1980s.

South Korean President Park Geun-Hye on April 27 accepted the resignation of her prime minister over a widening bribery scandal that has tainted senior members of her faltering administration.

South Korea's prime minister has offered to resign amid a bribery scandal just two months after he took up the country's No. 2 post, officials said April 21, in the latest political crisis to hit President Park Geun-hye.

"President and prime minister clash openly"

BELGRADE -- An analyst says that the exchange between Zorana Mihajlovic and Stanislava Pak "points to an open clash between Aleksadar Vucic and Tomislav Nikolic."

Pak is a presidential adviser, while Mihajlovic serves as a cabinet minister.
