Acting President Han Duck-soo said Monday he would spare no efforts to address urgent issues after he was reinstated, appreciating the Constitutional Court's ruling that dismissed his impeachment.

Han made the remark as he returned to office 87 days after the National Assembly voted to impeach him over his alleged role in suspended President Yoon Suk Yeol's Dec. 3 declaration of martial law, among other reasons.

"I will take the lead in preparing for and responding to global changes through partnership between the private and public sectors," Han told reporters upon arriving at the government complex in Seoul.

"I will do my best to ensure that South Korea continues to develop in this era of great geopolitical transformation," he added.

He also called for national unity as the nation is polarized over Yoon's impeachment, with a verdict for the high-stake case expected soon.

"I believe that there is no longer left or right. What matters most is how the country moves forward," he said. (Yonhap)
