Abstract

The study intended to focus on diplomacy as an essential component of the foreign policy
established by the states for the magnification of international affairs. Advanced technologies have
had a massive impact on foreign policy and have reworked the traditional diplomatic itinerary. The
results were found using a qualitative research approach and an exploratory method. The research
looked into how Pakistan uses the internet to modernize its effective foreign policy. How effective
are new digital diplomatic strategies in Pakistan's foreign policy? The present study aimed to
assess the model of digital diplomacy as part of Pakistan's foreign policy, which has focused
primarily on the use of social media in the arena of diplomatic courses. It examines the benefits and
drawbacks of digital diplomatic services and argues that states cannot justify digital diplomatic
practices. The New Democratic government in Pakistan has a firm stance on digitizing the country's
diplomatic trends. Digital diplomacy and Internet services (ICTs) have the potential to strengthen
the state's foreign policy standing in the minds of regional and international audiences. A careful
implication of the new trends in foreign affairs can diminish the bullying and deterioration.
