Number of staff at Mexico’s N. Korean embassy down to three: report

Move follows expulsion of DPRK Ambassador in September

Only three members of staff remain at the DPRK's embassy in Mexico, the country announced in a February implementation report to the UN Sanctions Committee on North Korea.

In a report detailing Mexico's implementation of UNSC Resolution 2371, the Directorate-General of Protocol of the Secretariat of Foreign Affairs said that while the country had hosted "five accredited diplomats" in 2016, the DPRK embassy was now "composed of three staff members."
