Answer:

B.) Consulates are placed in national capitals

Step-by-step explanation:

Consulates are not placed in only national capitals.

For example, 8 nations currently have New York City as their official embassies to the United States. So no, consulates are not placed only in national capitals.

The answer is A. There are embassies in over 190 countries around the world. There are certain countries that don’t have U.S. embassies. Two that don’t have U.S. embassies are Iran and North Korea. For obvious reasons, these countries governments do not have political relations or ties with the American government.
