Diplomatic (7)

I believe the answer is:

tactful

'diplomatic' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for tactful that I've seen before include "Like diplomat" , "Discreet - diplomatic" , "Sensitive in dealing with others" , "Polite" , "Sensitive to others on difficult issues" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Guardian, the Penny Press, The Independent, the Evening Standard and The Irish Independent.
