North Korea's Only Foreign-Founded Law Firm Suspends Operations
North Korea's first and only law firm set up by a foreigner, Hay, Kalb & Associates, will suspend operations, the firm's principal said in a statement on Monday, as the country grows increasingly isolated.
The firm is a joint venture between the North Korean state and British-French citizen Michael Hay, who has represented foreign clients in the capital, Pyongyang, for 12 years.
Hay said he had made the decision based on "business and geopolitical principles".
