Mexico is opening a consulate this summer in St. Paul to serve Mexicans living around the state, but it won't be the first foreign community with representation here. Places like Malta, Bolivia, and Luxembourg have consuls in the Twin Cities. About 20 countries have local emissaries who either promote trade and tourism or provide services to their countrymen living in Minnesota. Minnesota Public Radio's Bianca Vazquez Toness visited one of the newest consulates in the Twin Cities.
