special envoys
Designated diplomatic representatives
Special envoys are diplomatic representatives appointed to handle specific missions, crises, or issues rather than serving as permanent ambassadors.
Governments dispatch special envoys when situations require focused attention or high-level negotiation: The president appointed a special envoy for Middle East peace talks.
The role carries authority but is typically temporary, ending when the mission concludes.
