  • Ralph Cossa points out that while force of habit may compel government officials to stay close to the party line, the dialogue is still considerably more candid than in official settings. The active participation by foreign ministry and defense officials helps ensure a more informed debate while allowing new ideas to be explored without being interpreted as government policy.
