The Indian Embassy in North Korea was closed for more than three years.
India has decided to reopen its embassy in North Korea which was closed since 2021. According to The Tribune, a technical and diplomatic team has left for North Korea. Some employees have already reached Pyongyang, the capital of North Korea.
There is always a fear of espionage activities in North Korea. In view of this, the Indian Embassy, which has been closed for three and a half years, will first be thoroughly investigated.
India closed its embassy in Pyongyang in July 2021 and Ambassador Atul Malhari Gotsurve returned to New Delhi along with the entire staff. Although it was not declared closed, but later it was said that the staff has been called back due to Corona.
After this, no information was given about the diplomatic mission based in Pyongyang for a long time. 14 months ago Atul Malhari Gotsurve was appointed as Ambassador to Mongolia.
