"Jusserand became French minister at Copenhagen" is that Copenhagen in Denmark? Sounds indeed odd. A French minister in the Danish Government, not likely!

Being a minister in that context means being the representative of the French government in Denmark. Perhaps as an ambassador, but perhaps at a rank below that of ambassador. US foreign envoys before Congress created the title of "Ambassador" for American use, were called ministers. 6/29/16 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.37.119.16 (talk) 19:56, 29 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Confusing language

Under the heading "Career", much of the language is confusing, due, I suspect, to the use of translation software. To wit: "His literary work enabled him to reach a higher status as Paul Cambon's partner, the Minister of France in Tunisia, in 1882. During this time Jusserand was in charge of the administrative organisation of the protectorate. He became known as a respected diplomat, thanks to his contributions to the great humanization of the protectorate. Jusserand came back to the Quai d’Orsay In 1887, in a delicate moment, where he worked in the political sector. In 1898 he exercized in the role of emissary near Saint-Siège, then Minister of France in Copenhagen." (emphases added to highlight problematic language) Can anyone clean this up?
