Balanced approach? Do cuts really reflect strategic thinking or mere belt-tightening? How will this impact diplomatic relations and visa processing in key African markets? #SkepticMode
Balanced approach? Embassies cut may streamline operations but risk diplomatic strain. Lets weigh efficiency against global engagement. #DiplomacyFirst
