Selected Speeches Of His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I



CHAPTER II

PART 3

PERSONAL DIPLOMACY


Among the first proponents of personal diplomacy, His Majesty the Emperor has made state visits to friendly nations in all the known continents of the world. In these days of expanding and developing audio-­visual and mass-media communications, no other single factor has done more to focus world attention on the image of Ethiopia than His Imperial Majesty's many visits to friendly nations. On the domestic scene this personal diplomacy has resulted in both tangible and intangible benefits to the Ethiopian people and nation. Much of the nation's modern advance and her growing international stature could be traced to the Emperor's use of this high-level personal diplomacy which he has practised for over four decades.
