Yes, or at least some of them.  India, pop. 1.25 billion, has around nine hundred (900) diplomats total in its foreign service (that is, diplomats overseas and in the country combined), and it&#x27;s in a bad neighborhood with two nuclear-armed neighbors who are either not particularly friendly (China) or downright hostile (Pakistan).<p>Compare with Singapore, pop. 5 million, which also has about 900 diplomats!
