Anna Gát(@TheAnnaGat):Such a great piece by @Abi0lvera in @asteriskmgzn: "A diplomat abroad has a truth-seeking edge that is impossible to manufacture from home: distance. American journalists and advocates usually lean left or right, because American politics runs on two parties and most issues get sorted into one bin or the other. A diplomat posted overseas typically has much less of that reflex. The local politics are not yours."
