In the past, political relations between the European Union and the Russian Federation have been, for a lack of better words, tense. Albeit this fact, the political relations between the two have considerably increased since the true acknowledgement of the European Union in 1993 (but the origin of the European Union can be dated back as far as 1945 when the European Coal and Steel Industries first started to peacefully congregate between France, Germany, Luxembourg, Italy, Belgium, and The Netherlands).

Protocol may not be the most exciting area of international relations, but every foreign ministry maintains a protocol department. Protocol goes as far back as there have been contacts between states, with evidence of diplomatic protocol being found in reliefs at Persopolis.

Protocol concerning permanent diplomatic missions between states is now well established, but the area which is seeing the most innovation is that involving meetings between leaders.(2) Historically, personal meetings between rulers of states were infrequent before the nineteenth century, the logistics of travel making such meetings difficult.(3) Developments in technology and transport have made meetings easier and safer to arrange, and there has been a vertical rise in summitry since 1960. Little changed in the protocol of meetings between leaders until the twentieth century boom in summitry, when protocol has had to evolve in order to facilitate political leaders’ desire to meet. The result has been, for the most part, a further relaxation in protocol.…
