In many embassies there is no minister, and the counselor is the number two man, i.e., the deputy chief of mission. (In a very small embassy, the second man may not have this rank.) In a large embassy, the second ranking officer may be a minister, or minister-counselor, in which case the heads of the more important sections have counselor rank. Thus, for example, the embassy's political counselor, economic counselor, and administrative counselor are well-known and much-respected positions in diplomatic life. 1, record 7, English, - counsellor%20of%20embassy

Face à l'évolution de la pratique diplomatique concernant le nivellement des missions diplomatiques au rang d’ambassade, et, en même temps, au refus de nombreux États-notamment l'Asie et l'Afrique-de reconnaître au nonce un tel privilège, le Saint-Siège a institué ce titre de pro-nonce qui, étymologiquement, signifie : au lieu du nonce-pour assurer la direction d’une partie de ces nonciatures. 3, record 8, French, - pro%2Dnonce
