Summary/Abstract: Nations, states, communities, organisations and groups of individuals have their own interests, represented through adequate policies. In totalitarian regimes, policy is directly subordinated to a single’s person will. There are no permanent friends in politics, but permanent interests many experts and policymakers think and say that – and that is why alliances are so flexible. Considering the internal and external circumstances of the security environment, policy evolves between democracy and dictatorship. Policy and diplomacy cannot be dissociated. They act together in accordance with national or alliance interests.
