Why an embassy is needed.
Embassies are an important part of the development of foreign relations because they serve as points of contact in which various issues can be quickly and efficiently resolved. Through an embassy, countries can enter into mutually beneficial agreements in areas ranging from trade tariffs to political tensions between nations. As representatives of their countries, embassies deal with various issues of their citizens residing on the territory of the host country. In addition, it is at embassies that decisions related to the issuance of visas are made.
