韩国国会议员投票,赞成对卷入政治丑闻的第一位女总统朴槿惠进行弹劾。

星期五国会宣布朴槿惠被停职后,韩国总理黄教安将担任代总统。

弹劾过程可能需要六到九个月。首先,宪法法院将审阅弹劾动议,这一程序最长要花费180天,如果弹劾动议被宪法法院通过的话,立法人员就要在60天内安排新的选举。

朴槿惠是韩国有史以来第一个在任期间被检方指称为犯罪嫌疑人的总统。

South Korean lawmakers have voted to impeach President Park Geun-hye, the country's first female leader, who has been embroiled in a political scandal.

With Park's powers now suspended, Prime Minister Hwang Kyo-ahn is the interim head of government following Friday's vote.

The timeline for impeachment could take six to nine months. First, the Constitutional Court must review the impeachment motion; a process that could take up to 180 days. If approved, lawmakers would then have 60 days to schedule a new election.

This is the first time in South Korean history prosecutors had named the sitting president as a subject in a criminal investigation.
