Through the lens of personal experiences, the author sheds light on diplomatic backstage events and records incidents that influenced national and international developments. In an anecdotal form, it refers to characteristic unexpected events of diplomatic life, inextricably linked with key figures on the international stage.

It records the critical events of 1974, the wisdom of James Callaghan, the historical role of Mikhail Gorbachev, and the controversial personality of Yeltsin.

With narrative shifts between people and events, it describes Andreas Papandreou's relationships with leaders of his time, the failed predictions of Francois Mitterrand, the proverbial calmness of Margaret Thatcher, while not failing to criticize the insolent behavior of foreign diplomatic representatives and the attempts to distort historical reality to the detriment of our country.

Unknown aspects of modern history intertwine with politics and diplomacy, often demystifying people and situations.
