The leak of US embassy cables by Wikileaks has ignited a global diplomatic crisis, raising questions about the impact of exposing candid diplomatic discussions. While some argue that transparency could benefit nations like North Korea and Iran by revealing global sentiments towards them, others believe it undermines trust in diplomatic communications. There is speculation about potential resignations among diplomats, particularly Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, although many assert that no wrongdoing occurred and resignations are unlikely. Countries worldwide, including France, have condemned the leaks, framing them as attacks on state sovereignty, yet many governments continue to support the US. The situation highlights the delicate balance between transparency and the necessity of discreet diplomacy in international relations.
