Diplomacy plays an essential role in conflict prevention by facilitating dialogue and negotiations between conflicting parties, aiming to resolve disputes amicably before they escalate into violence. Through diplomatic channels, states can communicate their interests, establish mutual understanding, and work towards compromise. Engaging in preventative diplomacy helps build relationships, develop trust, and create frameworks for cooperation. The use of diplomatic tools, such as mediation, peacekeeping missions, and international agreements, contributes to stability and the maintenance of international peace, ultimately reducing the likelihood of armed conflict.
