diplomatic gift
A diplomatic gift is a gift given by a diplomat, politician or leader when visiting a foreign country. Usually the gift is reciprocated by the host. The use of diplomatic gifts dates back to the ancient world and givers have competed to outdo each other in the lavishness of their gifts. Examples include silks given to the West by the Byzantines in the early Middle Ages,〔"Silken diplomacy" by Anna Muthesius in Shepard J. & Franklin, Simon. (Eds.)
