Es un paradigma de cómo el diplomático cumple su misión en la discreción, lejos del vocerío, las grandilocuencias populistas o las soflamas vehementes. En la jerga del sector, existe incluso el término "sherpa". Designa a los que llevan el peso de una negociación en la sombra, entre bastidores, para aupar luego en la firma final ante las cámaras al dirigente que, con su rúbrica, pasará a la posteridad por haber logrado el acuerdo. 2, record 1, Spanish, - sherpa
