The correct answer choice is (A)

If K is assigned to Yemen, then from the first rule N cannot be assigned an ambassadorship, and from the third rule O cannot be assigned to Venezuela:

Venezuela is extremely restricted, and since K, L, N, and O cannot be assigned to Venezuela, J must be assigned to Venezuela:

Accordingly, answer choice (A) is correct.

Note that only L or O remains to be assigned to Zambia:

Each of the four incorrect answer choices plays on the L/O uncertainty.
