Dignity --- yes, I agree with you. Dignity is key to diplomacy as it is s the right of a person to be valued and respected for their own sake, and to be treated ethically. Violations in the form of humiliation, objectification, degradation, and dehumanization, to mention four can lead to some serious repercussions. To site an example, in 2013, an Indian Female Diplomat, Deviani Khobragade was arrested and strip searched which led to a serious uproar and according to a CNN article,(https://tinyurl.com/CNNIndianDiplomat) Indian officials summoned U.S. Ambassador Nancy Powell, took away U.S. diplomats' identification cards that gave them diplomatic benefits and removed security barriers outside the U.S. Embassy in New Delhi.
