Russia’s diplomats were once a key part of President Putin’s foreign policy strategy. But that has all changed.
In the years leading up to Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, diplomats lost their authority, their role reduced to echoing the Kremlin’s aggressive rhetoric.
BBC Russian asks former diplomats, as well as ex-Kremlin and White House insiders, how Russian diplomacy broke down.
Russian diplomacy is actually pretty good with many successes, but to notice that you should look at something other than USA and EU.
Sorry kiddo but we’re talking about our garden and our yards in front and behind the house and not the jungle right outside our pristine whitewashed picket fence
did they fix the emoji thing yet?
No, “maybe later” ones are normal size but the porky is humongous.
Lmao as big as their ego
No sorry I’m gonna die on this hill of an angel like Nuland being treated improperly.
my source is I made it the fuck up
Why exactly do you think that pretty much the entire Global South has not placed significant sanctions on Russia? Why do you think so many countries want to join BRICS?
Must be because of poor Russian diplo. Meanwhile, African countries are literally committing coups for their government staying too close to European colonial powers.
Joining sanctions necessarily incurs a cost in trade. It’s understandable that poorer countries which have smaller stake in the war don’t want to participate.
They want to join to get funds from the development bank. Not much more.
Now, now, let’s not let facts get in the way of the narrative.

Russian diplomacy is just as good as it’s military, and space program. A complete joke.
