Diplomats have been described in various ways throughout history. They have been called professional smooth talkers who know how to soften blows and are adept at saying less is more. While diplomats may seem irrelevant to some, they are aware diplomacy requires an open mind, flexibility, compromise, and a willingness to take risks in order to build trust between parties. In the end, diplomacy seeks to avoid war through negotiation and understanding between nations.
