description Special missions are a form of diplomatic communication and are one of the oldest forms of diplomatic relations. They are a form of ad hoc diplomacy that can be bilateral or multilateral. What is characteristic of special missions in the past is that they had a predominantly representative character, and now they have almost exclusively a functional character. Historically, such missions have been used since ancient times in China, the Greek states, Assyria, Egypt, and it should be especially mentioned that they are mentioned in ancient Indian writings around 2500 BC. Such missions were also used by the medieval Serbian state in relations with other states. Nowadays, these missions are important for resolving a specific issue, ie an international problem, and their existence is usually related to the duration of that problem, ie conflict.
