North Korea and Cuba aren't the only places you can't buy Coca-Cola.
No matter where you go, it's comforting to know you can always enjoy a Coca-Cola. Well, almost anywhere. While this fizzy drink is sold practically everywhere, it still hasn't (officially) made its way to North Korea or Cuba, according to the BBC. That's because these countries are under long-term U.S. trade embargoes.
In 2022, another country made it onto the list. Following its invasion of Ukraine, the Coca-Cola Company announced that it would be suspending business in Russia. The company finalized its exit from the world's largest country just five months after the war began.

3You are correct! Coca-Cola is indeed not officially available in North Korea, Cuba, and following the invasion of Ukraine, it was also suspended in Russia. These limitations are due to factors like long-term trade embargoes and specific geopolitical circumstances.
