Diplomacy of silence and seeking approval

"Party recruitment, protectionism, silence are favored in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and people who do not meet the valid conditions for admission are infiltrated, and then they have priority in advancement both in the country and abroad." The prevailing practice is that you are not allowed to say anything unless you get approval", says Branka Latinović, retired ambassador, in an interview for "Vreme".
