Honduras Names New Ambassador to Korea

Honduras has appointed Michel Idiaquez Baradat as its new ambassador to Korea. Baradat (42) is the son-in-law of Kang Young-shin, who was originally appointed as ambassador to Korea.

Kang's appointment was cancelled as Honduran laws ban naturalized foreign citizens from becoming overseas envoys.

Foreign Minister Yu Myung-hwan told lawmakers on Friday Kang's son-in-law was appointed instead. The Honduran government sent Seoul a request last month, and Baradat is likely to be accredited later this month.

A native Honduran, he is a career diplomat who served as envoy to Spain under the previous administration.
