"La diplomatie l'art de contenir le pouvoir"
— Henry Kissinger
Copied to clipboard
Simplified Meaning:
Diplomacy is about using careful and respectful communication to manage and balance power. Imagine two countries having an argument. Instead of starting a fight, they send representatives to discuss their issues. These diplomats speak calmly to find a solution that both countries can accept, avoiding any anger or violence. This way, they keep things peaceful and fair. For example, during historic peace talks, world leaders met to discuss difficult topics and worked hard to find agreements, preventing wars and making sure everyone stayed safe. If you use diplomacy in your own life, like talking things out with a friend instead of arguing, you can keep your relationships strong and avoid unnecessary conflicts.
