The need to maintain good reputation and establish good relationships should dominate public diplomacy efforts (Hiebert, 2005).

Few studies have examined repair strategies by nations. The need to undertake more empirical research to understand how the image-rebuilding rhetoric can aid diplomatic efforts remains relevant today. |
