The government led by Balendra Shah recently reached a 100-day milestone in its diplomatic approach. During this period, the administration focused on performing sovereign equality when interacting with foreign envoys. This strategy appeared to prioritize the "vibes" of diplomatic relations over concrete results. However, the atmosphere of symbolic equality eventually faced a practical challenge. The government eventually realized that symbolic gestures are not enough to secure official engagements. Consequently, someone from the administration had to physically seek out a formal invitation. This shift marks a transition from performative diplomacy to the reality of international politics.
