The right conferred on EU citizens to diplomatic and consular protection means that when an EU national is in a third country where their own Member State is not represented, they are entitled to the diplomatic and consular protection of any Member State, under the same conditions as nationals of that State. This is outlined in Article 23 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. Option A is incorrect because it refers to the principle of non-discrimination within the EU, while option C is incorrect because the EU does not have its own diplomatic and consular service.
