Kuwait Gives N. Korean Envoy One Month to Leave
U.S. ally Kuwait has given North Korea's ambassador a month to leave the Gulf state and will downgrade its diplomatic representation with Pyongyang, a senior Kuwaiti diplomat told the AFP news agency Sunday.
North Korea's diplomatic presence in the emirate will also be reduced to a charge d'affaires and three diplomats, the source told AFP, requesting anonymity.
The measures follow a visit less than two weeks ago by Kuwait Emir Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmed Al-Sabah to Washington.
