DIPLOMAT OF THE WEEK: INSULTING THE GUESTS
by Hazed
Diplomats are supposed to be – well – diplomatic, so it’s always tremendously amusing to read a story about one that fails to be polite. A Romanian diplomat based in Paris was sacked recently after he committed a most undiplomatic act.
He sent out invitations to a reception, but he accidentally attached a spreadsheet to the invites that described some of the guests as “ghastly” and “undesirable”.
Whoops!
The country’s ambassador, Bogdan Mazuru, called the event “unfortunate”. That’s an understatement!
