I do know that in the past one diplomatic establishment will act for
another where the other has no representatives in that country. E.g
Commonwealth countries would usually try to help one another out.
And I think Russia also substitutes for some other adjacent
countries. The services offered varied depending of the countries
and place. I'd not tag it. <br>
