It must be noted that diplomacy, whether classic or modern, is of a changing nature. Therefore, we need extra analytical tools to fully comprehend this multifaceted practice. It is obvious, for example, that the concept of citizen diplomacy is omnipresent. It attracts the classical diplomatic corps as well as the general public in a foreign state. So in a way, personal networking has become interwoven with nation-branding, and the role of the average citizen has assumed greater significance. The purpose of cultural diplomacy, in the context of foreign policy, is to create harmony in the midst of intercultural differences, and prevent conflicts that arise out of political, social, religious and other ideological tensions. Sooner or later, states will realize that citizen diplomacy is becoming an essential component of public diplomacy, and hopefully they will cooperate more actively to promote and engage this concept in the world public arena.
