Defence diplomacy is the deliberate application of resources from across the spectrum of defence, to achieve positive outcomes in the development of bilateral and multilateral relationships. Military diplomacy is a sub-set of this, tending to refer only to the role of military attachés and their associated activity. Defence diplomacy does not include military operations, but subsumes such other defence activity as international personnel exchanges, ship and aircraft visits, high level engagement (e.g. Ministers and senior defence personnel), training and exercises, security sector reform, bilateral military staff talks, etc.

What is the difference between defense diplomacy and ordinary diplomacy?

Defense diplomacy is one of the instruments a country can use to develop the bilateral and multilateral relationships is needs in the world. It is different from 'ordinary' diplomacy, which is transacted mainly by civilian diplomats and senior officials such as the Secretary of State/Minister of Foreign Affairs. Defense diplomacy captures the varied but important contribution to defence relationships that are provided by tools such as personnel exchanges, training and education for foreign military personnel, large or small military exercises, defence medical/health services cooperation, bilateral military staff talks, political-military talks, naval port visits and the like. Defense diplomacy is a relatively recent idea, originating in NATO countries after the collapse of the Soviet Union, when nations were trying to figure out new and emerging roles for their defence establishments.


What countries use defense diplomacy?

Defence diplomacy as an organizing concept originated with Western defence establishments, especially the UK Ministry of Defence, in the early post-Cold War period. It is generally understood as the peaceful application of different defence resources, including ship visits, military exercises, training and capacity-building as well as high-level interaction (e.g. at the Secretary/Minister of Defence level). Many countries employ defence diplomacy in support of their overall foreign policy; trying to build defence relationships that can further their current aims or that can be called upon in a crisis. Today, aspects of defence diplomacy are employed by countries with very different philosophies and intentions -- China uses defence diplomacy, as do Russia, India, Brazil and of course major Western/NATO powers (USA, UK, Canada, Australia). Defence diplomacy is distinct from "gunboat diplomacy", which is more intended to intimidate than to build relationships.

What is the difference between the first and second line of defense in the immune system?

The difference between the first and second line of defence is that the first line of defence is your physical barrier like your skin and it protects you from most pathogens entering your body and the sweat and oil on your skin prevent some pathogens from growing on your body. the second line of defence is when a pathogen makes it past the first line of defence your body can mount an immune response to the attack and destroy the invader. Whether or not the response succeeds depends very much on your body's ability to distinguish between cells that belong to it and cells that do not.
