People's attention --- There are indeed risks associated with the use of emojis. Risks related to cultural misunderstandings could perhaps be reduced by working together with local employees of the embassy, as they are familiar with the local customs. Regardless of this, you are right to point out that the use of emojis increases attention. Due to the fact that the use of emojis has almost become the norm I wonder if we can really still do without them completely: A tweet that dispenses with all emojis may get "lost" in the mass of tweets.
