Choose the most appropriate sequence of prepositions that appropriately fills the blanks in the sentence below.
_____ rising tensions, the ambassador worked with international observers and entered _____ constructive dialogue to transform regional hostility into a framework _____ peaceful cooperation, and sustainable diplomatic engagement across neighbouring nations.
Solution
Amidst means “in the middle of”, so “Amidst rising tensions” fits naturally.
The standard expression is “enter into dialogue”, while “a framework for peaceful cooperation” is the correct construction.
Traps:
“Enter between dialogue” is incorrect.
“Among rising tensions” and “framework on peaceful cooperation” do not fit naturally here.
