Public relations are also a field where the ambassador is in demand. At times,the ambassador may have to publicly explain his country's policies in interviews and background talks with the press or in contributions to radio or TV debates. The modern ambassador also uses information and communication technology such as the Internet to address a larger audience. For example, many ambassadors publish their CVs and texts of their speeches on the web sites of their embassies. The ambassador not only is busy streamlining the work of his staff, but also makes substantial contributions to his embassy's output. The ambassador depends on the contacts that he has succeeded in establishing in a host country. Many contacts are good; a few close contacts to the center of power are even better. Therefore,the ambassador is often out of the office and talking to government officials,political leaders, and important personalities. He delivers speeches, gives interviews, attends meetings with other ambassador, and takes part in social gatherings.
