Mexico's Secretariat of Foreign Affairs in September last year declared North Korean Ambassador Kim Hyong-gil as persona non grata and expelled him from the country.
Ahead of the inauguration ceremony of Mexico's president-elect Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador next month, Kim's status remains unchanged.
"The position of North Korean ambassador to Mexico is still vacant," the Mexican Embassy in Seoul told Korea Times Monday. "We haven't heard about any plans to lift the measure yet."

The delegation is led by Kim Yong-nam, president of the Presidium of the Supreme People's Assembly, and includes Pak Thae-song, vice-chairman of the Central Committee of Workers' Party of Korea, and Vice Foreign Minister Ho Yong-bok.
