I'm old enough to remember when diplomatic quid pro quo was preferable to open hostilities. Indeed, quid pro quo was the sin qua non of diplomacy.
But then, diplomats never were honest folk to begin with, so I guess it shouldn't really surprise me to find that even the rationalisation for their own necessity was a lie.
