“„Thus, the composed conditions of world affairs and the development of the national revolutions of AA nations made the new School of Thinking grow⟳ into a stature and basis of foreign policy designing the „perfect dream⟳ of every deiplomat”^([sic]) by integrating Morality, Interest⟳ and Reason⟳. Not self-interest formulated into a morality which becomes identical to interest⟳ ......... Not the kind of Reason⟳ of the „angle shooter” of Spitzfindigkeit”, the sly and cunning diplomaticity, but the Reason⟳ of mutual benefit based on the complementary aspects of political, economic and cultural relations of Africa, Asia and both Europe.”

In making these existential-ontological overtures, it was clear that a certain distance was being established from the classical idea that diplomacy was simply an answer⟳ to the anarchic field of nation-states. Instead, what we might call⟳ diplomaticity was now understood as a fundamentally human trait.”
