Question

Despite the complexity of the issue, the diplomat managed to maintain a tone of calm and ___________ throughout the negotiation.Solution
The sentence suggests that the diplomat remained calm during a complex negotiation. The word "composure" refers to a calm and controlled state of mind, which fits the context perfectly.
